Specifications Maximum operating pressure: 300 PSIG (20 Bar) Minimum operating pressure: See page 6 & 10 (Pressure Drop Charts) Maximum operating temperature (fluid and ambient): 185°F (85ºC), 186°F to 210°F (85ºC to 99ºC) with reduced rating of the solid state relay. Minimum operating temperature (fluid and ambient): 35°F (2ºC).
OPERATION FV100 is an inline flow meter that utilizes the vortex shedding principle. The fluid strikes a bluff body generating vortices (eddies) that move downstream. The vortices form alternately, from one side to the other. A piezoelectric sensor housed in a sensor tube directly downstream of the bluff senses the pressure zones created by the vortices.
USING THIS MANUAL To use this manual, you will require the model code, which can be found on the nameplate of the meter, as shown on the example below. See page 10 for “Model Codes.” The Model Code will allow you to determine the minimum &...
This situation will not be encountered in most installations. If while increasing the flow, the signal or displayed flow appears to drop off, but reappears when flow is reduced, contact OMEGA to determine back pressure requirements to extend the flow range to the capacity of the meter.
Electrical/Wiring/Grounding Electrical Service: General Purpose Electrical Classification: Non-hazardous Type 1, 2, 3, 4 (equal to IP 65), 12, & 13 Power Requirements: 24 VDC (10-30 VDC) @ 80 mA Electrical Connections: 5-Pin micro style for FV100 or 8-Pin micro style for FV100-T, DC Cabling: 5 or 8 Pin DC female shielded cable (do not connect shielding at the panel) Grounding: Note, that DC and Chassis Grounds are internally connected to eliminate electrical noise.
DC Power Supply Voltage Requirements CONFIGURATION (Setup) FV100 comes pre-calibrated and pre-configured in Gallons Per Minute, with the Solid State Relay set for 0 flow, which inactivates the relay. To change the engineering units displayed to LPM, reset the solid state relay for a minimum flow condition, or change the relay function (nc-normally closed or no- normally open) requires a simple reconfiguration.

CONFIGURATION (Setup) continued... The next parameter, relay function, will automatically appear. It may indicate “nc”, normally closed, or “no”, normally open. Pressing the MENU button will change the relay function from one to the other. To select the desired relay condition, merely press the SET button. The relay function selected is at the normal flow condition, above set point.
FV100-T LED Indicators The LED’s adjacent to the engineering units of GPM, LPM, F, & C have two functions. The first is to indicate the process variable being displayed and its respective engineering unit, the second to indicate alarm conditions. If temperature is being displayed, say 75 F, then 75 will appear in the display and the LED adjacent to F will be lit.
