Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a magnetic-inductive flow meter having a measuring tube on which there is fitted a magnetic unit for generating a magnetic field, which is aligned substantially perpendicular to a flow direction of an electrically conductive measuring medium flowing through the measuring tube and whose measurement voltage induced in the measuring medium can be detected by at least two inserted measuring electrodes electrically insulated from the measuring tube. In order to avoid coupling interference voltages into the electrical electrodes, the first and the second electrode leads can be jointly twisted starting from the leadthrough as far as the first electrode, where the first electrode lead is electrically connected to the first electrode, and the second electrode is connected to a short-circuited conductor loop which encompasses the measuring tube and is connected to the second electrode lead at a location of the first electrode.
