Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A magnetic flowmeter generates an alternating potential (V19) representing flow. A controlled current (I12) excites the flowmeter with first and second amplitudes of current. A correction output (I26) represents the first and second amplitudes. A circuit (36) connected to the correction output (I26) and the alternating potential (V19) oscillates at a frequency representing the alternating potential corrected for variation of the first and second amplitudes. Frequencies of the oscillations at first and second amplitudes are measured (38). An output is calculated (39) as a function of a subtraction of the first and second measured frequencies such that the effect of offset is reduced.

Why it's free to use
- Filed September 13, 1990 and granted November 28, 2000. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended September 13, 2010.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 13, 2012.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
