Disclosed is a method for commissioning a magneto-inductive flow measuring device having means for producing a magnetic field and at least one measuring electrode pair for sensing a potential difference in a medium. The method includes a settling of the means during a settling time for stabilizing the magnetic field. During the settling time a first voltage time function is applied to the means, wherein after the settling time a measuring time begins, wherein during the measuring time a second voltage time function is applied to the means, wherein the settling time is divided into first time intervals, each of which has a duration, wherein the measuring time is divided into second time intervals, each of which has a duration, wherein an average value of all first interval durations is always less than an average value of all second interval durations.

Method for commissioning a magnetic inductive flowmeter, and a magnetic inductive flowmeter

A method for manufacturing an apparatus for measuring flow of a fluid flowing through a measuring tube of metal using the magneto-inductive principle, comprising the method steps as follows: securing first and second collars of metal externally on the measuring tube with an orientation perpendicular to the tube axis of the measuring tube; lining the measuring tube internally with an electrically non-conductive, elastic liner; and altering a measuring section of the measuring tube located at least partially between the first collar and the second collar by means of cold deformation in such a manner that the cross sectional area of the measuring section is reduced compared with the cross sectional area of an inflow section of the measuring tube located upstream from the measuring section and an outflow section of the measuring tube located downstream from the measuring section.
