Construction and function
Construction:
The measuring tube with its earthing sleeves and electrodes
passes through the sensor housing and forms the external
process connection of the FMG90.
A magnetic field for the measurement process is generated inside
the sensor housing, which also contains the sensor and signal
conditioning circuitry.
The two stainless steel electrodes are located in the middle of the
measuring tube between the earthing sleeves. The FMG90 does
not need any moving parts to make measurements. The inside of
the measuring tube is completely open, allowing the fluid to flow
unhindered through the measuring tube.
Function:
The magnetic inductive flow sensor functions according to the induction principle:
The measuring tube is located in a magnetic field (B). If
an electrically conductive medium (V) flows through the
measuring tube and, therefore, at right angles to the
magnetic field, a voltage (U) which is proportional to
the mean flow velocity will be induced in the medium
and subsequently picked up by the two electrodes.

Installation
Before installing, check that
ˆ the wetted materials of the device are suitable for the media being used (see Materials
Table "10.1").
ˆ the equipment is switched off and is in a safe and de-energised state.
ˆ the equipment is depressurised and has cooled down.

5.1 Installation instructions
CAUTION!
Risk of malfunction due to external magnetic fields!
Magnetic fields close to the device can cause malfunctions and
should be avoided.
ª Ensure that no external magnetic fields are present at the
installation site of the FMG90.
•
The FMG90 can always be installed anywhere along the pipeline. Straight sections of
piping are preferable, however.
•
•
Installation can occur in horizontal and vertical pipes. The flow sensor is only suitable for
application in completely filled pipe systems.
As a matter of principle magnetic inductive flow sensors are widely independent from the
flow profile. An inlet section is not absolutely necessary.
To reach a most highly accuracy of the measurement, you should use straight inlet and
outlet sections according to the nominal pipe diameter (DN). The inlet pipe section has to
be at least 10 x DN; the outlet section 5 x DN in order to achieve the specified accuracy.
•
The inlet and outlet sections and the gaskets must have the same or a slightly larger
inside diameter than the measuring tube in order to achieve the specified accuracy.

•
If two or more FMG90 devices are used side by side, maintain
a separation of at least 2.5 cm between adjacent devices.
If adjacent devices are too close together, operation of both
devices may be impaired due to mutual interference.
5.2 Assembly
The FMG90 is installed directly into the pipeline. The compact design and light weight of the
unit make wall-mounting unnecessary.
IMPORTANT NOTICES:
• Only use suitable gaskets for installation.
• Observe the flow direction indicated on the type plate.
• Observe the mounting dimensions.
ª To ensure the best possible measuring accuracy, a horizontal
installation position with increasing flow is preferable (no
collecting of dirt deposits).
ª Install the appropriate screwed connections at the installation
location.
ª Insert the FMG90 together with the gaskets.
ª Screw the union nuts of the screwed connection onto the
process connections of the FMG90.
ª Tighten both union nuts with a maximum torque of 5 Nm.
