Abstract
A magnetic induction flowmeter to measure the rate of flow of a fluid features a plastic flow element (10) with a tubular section (12) adjoining a flow channel (18). Electrodes (22) penetrate the tubular section (12) and are positioned at a distance from each other in the flow channel (18). The electrodes (22) are made of an electroconductive material composed of a base material and an electroconductive supplemental substance finely distributed within said base material. The base material is identical to or is related to the plastic of the flow element (10) and the electrodes (22) are joined with the tubular section (12) of the flow element (10) to form a homogeneous material compound.
