Fluid contaminant detection using noise levels in magnetic flow meter sensor signals

A magnetic flow meter includes electrode sensors generating a sensor signal indicative of flow of a liquid through a conduit. A noise identification module identifies a noise level in the sensor signal and a contaminant identification module uses the noise level to determine whether there is a conta...
