Induction flow meter FMG600 series
4. TECHNICAL PARAMETERS
4.1. Flow sensor
4.1.1. Selection of correct sensor size
The following table shows minimum and maximum flow rates for various sensor sizes and flow velocities
ranging from 0.33 to 32.81 ft/s (0.1 to 10 m/s). The operational flow-velocity range is best to choose 1.64 to
16.40 ft/s (0.5 to 5 m/s), see the diagram below. For lower flow velocities, the measurement accuracy is
worse while at higher flow velocities the turbulences at contact edges may cause undesirable interference.
