Comprehensive E&H 5BH Model Variants

The versatility of the E&H 5BH electromagnetic flowmeter is reflected in its range of model numbers, which denote specific nominal diameters (DN) and application requirements. Below is a list of common variants available through ST-YUKE CO., LIMITED, covering everything from micro dosing to full-scale filling operations.

Decoding the E&H 5BH Ordering Code: A Detailed Example

To illustrate the configurability of the E&H 5BH electromagnetic flowmeter, let us break down a specific product code: 5BH12-AG601AB041A3 -4.

Position 1-5: The Base Model

5BH12: This identifies the device as a Dosimag with a nominal diameter of DN12. This mid-range size is ideal for filling applications requiring moderate flow rates in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical production lines -4.

Position 6: Process Connection

A: Indicates the specific process connection type. For the 5BH series, “A” typically denotes a standard hygienic connection compatible with common filling system interfaces -4.

Position 7: Seal Material

G: Specifies the gasket/seal material. While options include EPDM, Silicone, and Viton, “G” may indicate a specific FDA-compliant material suitable for food contact applications -4-7.

Position 8-9: Electrode & Calibration

60: This two-digit code defines:

6: Electrode material (likely 316L stainless steel or Alloy C22)

0: Calibration type (Standard calibration) -4

Position 10: Electrode Design

1: Specifies the electrode design variant. For the 5BH series, this may indicate pin-type electrodes suitable for hygienic applications -4.

Position 11: Certification

A: Indicates the approval type. “A” typically signifies non-hazardous area certification, suitable for general food and pharmaceutical environments -4.

Position 12: Housing

B: Specifies the housing design. “B” typically denotes the compact, IP67-rated stainless steel enclosure designed for tight installation spaces -4.

Position 13: Electrical Connection

0: Defines the electrical connection type. “0” may indicate no pre-wired cable or a specific connector type.

Position 14: Power Supply

4: Specifies the power supply configuration. “4” typically indicates 24V DC operation, standard for most filling machinery -4.

Position 15: Software/Communication

1: Defines the software functionality and communication protocol. “1” may indicate basic functionality with pulse/frequency outputs -1.

Position 16: Output Configuration

A: Specifies the input/output configuration. For the 5BH series, this typically relates to the pulse output characteristics.

Position 17: Option

3: Indicates additional options. “3” may specify two pulse/frequency/status outputs up to 10kHz, passive -4.
