LMI 02
Inductive conductivity measuring and control unit
The inductive measurement principle
The current in the liquid on its part
creates a magnetic alternating feld in
the receiver coil.
The produced induction current of
the receiver coil is transmitted to
the measuring amplifer for further
processing serving as measuring
current.
This induces an electrical tension
in the liquid. Current fows along
the ions contained in the liquid and
increases with the growth in ionic
concentration.

The inductive conductivity measuring and control unit LMI 02 is especially designed for
permanent concentration measurement and control of Ecolab products as alkaline or aci-
dic cleaning and disinfecting solutions. Usage in CIP-phase separation is possible too.
The LMI 02 is designed as a wall-mounted unit. The conductivity measuring operates to
the electrodeless measurement principle. The conductivity probe is combined with a tem-
perature sensor (NTC). The infuence of the temperature on the measured value
is compensated according to the used product.
The temperature compensation is selectable e.g. for alkaline products (1.9 %/K) or acid
detergents (1.25 %/K). Frontside operation panel with a digital display ensure a simple
and reliable operator guidance.
The adaptive fuzzy controller integrated in the LMI 02 keeps the detergent concentration
on a constant and precise level.
