3.3.3 Magnet Installation

Now install the magnets into the impeller by pressing them in. Note, the direction of the magnetic poles may be important depending on the Hall sensor being used. In the case of the ring magnet, the magnet can be installed either direction. For flow meters using disc magnets, it is most common to utilize alternating N/S oriented poles. Figure 3-3 is an example assembly for the horizontal impeller with four north oriented poles (red) and four south oriented poles (black).
