Magnetic-inductive flow meter

Abstract

A magnetic-inductive flow meter for determining a flow rate-dependent measurement variable includes: a measuring tube for guiding a flowable medium, the measuring tube having an electrically conductive carrier tube, the carrier tube having a first electrode opening; a magnetic field-generating device for generating a magnetic field penetrating the measuring tube, the magnetic field generating device being arranged on an outer lateral surface of the measuring tube; a first electrode arrangement, the first electrode arrangement being arranged in the first electrode opening; and a first electrode cap interlockingly and/or force-fittingly arranged on the first electrode arrangement and designed to prevent the formation of a moisture bridge between the first electrode arrangement and the carrier tube.
