Introduction
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Mc Mag3000 ow meter combines an innovative multi-point sensor with a battery powered integrated electronic
converter package to provide accurate ow measurement for full-pipe ow monitoring applications.
The saddle mounted sensor (available for pipe sizes from 4 to 12 inches) uses electromagnetic technology to measure the
water ow and correct for shifting velocity in the pipe by constantly obtaining a mean velocity from its multiple sensors.
The integrated converter is powered by a replaceable three cell lithium-thionyl chloride (Li-SOCI2) battery that can provide
ow measurement for ve years (including a ve-year battery warranty). Also available is the optional DC power supply
(required for 4-20mA output). The streamlined, debris-shedding sensor shape allows the Mc Mag3000 to be used under
many ow conditions, including surface water applications.
The Mc Mag3000 includes the McLogger data logger as standard with any order. Please see the McLogger manual for more
information (Literature number 30121-87).
The Mc Mag3000 uses Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction to measure water velocity. Faraday's Law states that a
conductor, moving through a magnetic eld, produces a voltage.
Charge carriers in the uid produce a voltage when passing through a magnetic eld. The magnitude of the voltage is
directly proportional to the velocity at which the uid moves through the magnetic eld. Electromagnetic coils inside the
sensor produce magnetic elds, and electrodes on the sensor’s surface measure the voltage generated by the moving uid.
The electrode pairs are positioned in specic congurations along the axis of the sensor. The individual velocity
measurements are averaged together providing the average velocity across the pipe center line. Flow is calculated by
multiplying the average velocity by the cross-sectional area of the pipe.
2.0 UNPACKING THE CRATE AND VERIFYING SERIAL NUMBERS
2.1 Uncrating
• Electromagnetic meter assembly with grounding wire attached
• Converter cable (attached to meter)
• Signal converter
• User manuals for both the sensor and converter
When uncrating the McMag3000, any damage due to rough or improper handling should be reported to the transportation
rm and McCrometer. If for any reason it is determined that the unit or parts of the unit should be returned to the factory,
please contact McCrometer for clearance prior to shipment. Each unit must be properly crated to prevent any further
damage. The factory assumes no responsibility for equipment damaged in return shipment due to improper packaging.
Figure 1. Location of
meter serial tag
The shipping crate contains
the following items:
2.1 Verifying the Serial Numbers
The converter and sensor are supplied as a custom calibrated matched system. Verify the
system serial numbers on both the converter and sensor match. This will ensure a properly
calibrated system.
The meter serial number is located on the side of the sensor body on a silver label. Example
shown in Figure 1.
The converter serial number tag is located on the side or top. The tag has the converter
model number, the converter serial number, the meter model number and the meter serial
number.
IMPORTANT: Verify the meter serial numbers on both the converter and sensor
match. If the meter serial numbers do not match, contact the factory before
continuing with the installation.

3.0 PREPARING FOR A NEW INSTALLATION
3.1 General Installation Considerations
Proper meter installation is the rst step to ensure excellent meter performance. Follow these instructions closely. Consult an
authorized service representative or the Factory for any circumstances encountered which are not covered in this manual.
All McCrometer products are tested and inspected during manufacture and prior to shipping. An inspection should be
performed at the time of unpacking to detect any damage that might have occurred during shipment.
WARNING!
Incorrect installation or removal of meters can result in serious injury or death. Read the instructions in this
manual on the proper procedures carefully.
• Any person installing, inspecting, or maintaining a McCrometer ow meter should have a working understanding of
piping congurations and systems under pressure.
• Before adjusting or removing any meter, be certain the system has depressurized completely.
• Be careful when lifting meters. Meters can cause serious injury if lifted incorrectly or dropped.All magnetic ow
meters are calibrated for a full pipeline only; if less, the ow meter will over measure the ow.
• Although a minimum line pressure is not necessary for an accurate measurement, a full pipe is necessary.
• With the meter installed, check the rate-of-ow indicator. It should be stable to the point that it can be easily read.
Some indicator movement is normal due to variations in ow. Erratic movement of the indicator is normally caused
by ow variations and the system should be checked. Drastic variations in ow can decrease meter accuracy. If you
suspect a problem with the meter, please contact your local McCrometer representative.
!
3.2 Sensor Location
Adjoining pipe must be adequately supported, and the area around the sensor should provide sucient drainage to
prevent ooding the converter or conduits. The location chosen should provide room to read the display and be free from
harsh electrical noise from adjacent equipment, cables, RFI, or EMI.
3.3 Remote Mount Converter Location
The signal converter may be installed in a desired location provided that free access is available to allow the display to
be viewed as required. The unit can be either wall mounted or panel mounted with masonry xings or nuts and bolts
respectively via the xing holes provided. The maximum distance between the meter and the converter is 25 feet. For
applications with extended lengths, consult factory.

3.4 Flow Direction
It is very important to install the ow meter relative to the ow of the water. The sensor is designed at an angle to shed
debris in the ow and for other performance enhancements. (Figure 3)

4.0 FLOW METER INSTALLATION
The Mc Mag3000 is a saddle type meter. It may be installed directly onto an existing pipe, or may be installed into an
optional spool piece to be added to a system.
WARNING!
Insure that the line is depressurized before beginning installation!
!
3.5 Straight Pipe Requirements
Flow meters are velocity sensing devices and are vulnerable to certain upstream disturbances. Because of this, meters
need certain lengths of straight pipe before and after the meter. These distances relate to the diameter of the pipe
used. Obstructions can include elbows, valves, pumps, and changes in pipe diameter. The uneven ow created by these
obstructions can vary with each system.
Both upstream and downstream distances are measured from the center of the saddle as shown below. (Figure 4) In a
typical installation to achieve ±2% accuracy the Mc Mag3000 ow meter should be installed a minimum of three diameters
upstream from most ow disturbers and one diameter downstream of the meter. Accuracy of ±1% is available in many
applications with a Factory consultation prior to ordering.

Flow Meter Installation
4.1 New Installations
Saddle type meters oer simplicity of installation. A minimum round hole size of three inches (3.0") should be cut into the
top center of the pipe. The saddle meter is then installed as follows:
1. Loosen and remove the nuts and washers from the straps. Remove the straps from the saddle.
2. Cut or hole-saw the pipe and remove all burrs, slag, and rough edges from the inside and outside of the cutout section.
3. Place the meter assembly on the pipe with the at gasket on the 4" models, and the “D” shaped ring gasket for larger
meters in position on the bottom of the saddle. The saddle must be positioned so that the at gasket or D-ring
maintains contact with the surface of the pipe completely around the cutout opening.
4. Insert the meter probe through the hole and slide the meter forward (downstream) until the probe contacts the front
edge of the pipe wall. Then slide the back away from the pipe wall 1/8" to 1/4" leaving the probe in a free state and not
in contact with the pipe wall.
5. Install the straps from under the pipe and insert the threaded ends through the holes in the brackets on the side of
the saddle.
6. For each strap bolt, replace the washers and nuts.
7. Tighten each of the U-bolt nuts evenly.
WARNING!
Customers are warned that the U-Bolt nuts are to be tightened evenly to approximately 30 foot pounds torque.
This is sucient to seal the saddle to the pipeline. Additional tightening may be required to seal the saddle on
rough or irregular pipe (60 FOOT POUNDS MAXIMUM).
IMPORTANT!
Insure that the meter probe is not in contact with the pipe wall when installed!

4.2 Remote Mount Installation
You will need to prepare the location where you will install the remote converter. The location cannot be further from the
ow meter than the length of the 25’ cable. This must be planned in advance because the cable cannot be lengthened.
Doing so will alter the calibration between the meter and the converter and void the warranty.
Install the ow meter as described in section 4.1. Mount the converter and connect the cable to the meter’s junction
box and the converter’s external connection. Figure 5 below shows an example of a remote mount installation with an
optional Smart Output connection.

5.1 Mounting the ProComm GO Converter
Note: This applies to the remote mount converter only.
If possible, mount the converter in an electronics shed or environmental
enclosure. The sun shield should be oriented in a direction to reduce sun
damage and ensure readability.
There is a stainless steel mounting plate attached to the back of the ProComm
GO converter, which is used to mount the converter to a solid, at surface
using four bolts (Figure 6). Mounting plate feet are located at the top, bottom,
left, and right sides.
5.2 Installing Cables through Cable Glands and Conduit
All electrical cables enter the converter through compression ttings or
optional customer-supplied conduit located on the side or bottom of the converter (Figure 7 and Figure 8). Ensure that all
compression glands are properly tightened and all unused ttings are plugged so the case remains sealed.
The power cable and wiring harnesses are each assigned specic cable glands where they will pass through
into the converter. See section 5.4 for cable gland assignment for wiring harnesses and section 6.2 for wiring
diagrams.
!
All cable compression glands must be properly tightened to prevent moisture intrusion and maintain the IP67
rating. To insure IP67 rating, use only round cable 0.24” to 0.47”in diameter.

connected to an earth ground and/or the metal pipe in which it is installed. (Figure 23)
For electrically noisy installations connect the grounding lug to a dedicated, low impedance earth ground. Low impedance
is 10 Ohms or less.
