2 Device description The FMG90 series from Omega, is a non-contact flow sensor. The measurement is performed using magnetic induction and works without any moving parts. The FMG90 is used for measuring or metering water and aqueous solutions. The compact design and independence from the intake and discharge sections allows the FMG90 to be used under a variety of conditions.
Intended use The magnetic inductive flow sensor FMG90 must only be used for measuring and metering liquids with a minimum conductivity of 20 μS/cm. WARNING! No safety component! The magnetic inductive flow sensor of the series FMG90 are not safety components in accordance with Directive 2006-42-EC (Machine Directive).
In order to guarantee that the device operates safely, the operator must act competently and be conscious of safety issues. Omega provides support for the use of its products either personally or via relevant literature. The customer verifies that our product is fit for purpose based on our technical information.
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.
Installation instructions CAUTION! Risk of malfunction due to external magnetic fields! Magnetic fields close to the device can cause malfunctions and should be avoided. 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.
• 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.
6 Electrical connection The electrical connection of the FMG90 is via the 4-pin plug M12x1 at the top. The corresponding connection cables with moulded coupling socket are available in various lengths. CAUTION! Electric current! The electrical connection should only be carried out by a fully qualified electrician. De-energize the electrical system before connecting the FMG90.
7 Commissioning and measuring operation Before switching on the FMG90 for the first time, please follow the instructions in the following section. Commissioning Check that the FMG90 has been installed correctly and that all screw connections are sealed. the electrical wiring has been connected properly. the measuring system is vented by flushing.
9 Disassembly and disposal CAUTION! Risk of injury! Never remove the device from a plant in operation. Make sure that the plant is shut down professionally. Before disassembly: Prior to disassembly, ensure that the equipment is switched off and is in a safe and de-energised state. the equipment is depressurised and has cooled down.
