Insertion Design
The unique FMA-900 air velocity transducer utilizes
both a velocity sensor and a temperature sensor to
accurately measure air velocity (in SFPM, standard
feet per minute). The built-in temperature sensor
automatically corrects the flowrate for temperature
variations. Both sensors are rugged glass-coated
Platinum resistance detectors (RTDs). The circuit
heats the velocity sensor to a constant temperature
differential above ambient temperature and measures
the cooling effect of the air flow. This design provides
excellent low velocity sensitivity and high accuracy.
The FMA-900 also features negligible pressure drop.
To obtain mass flow rate in SCFM (standard cubic
feet/minute), the SFPM velocity indicated by the
FMA-900 is multiplied by the cross-sectional area
of the pipe or duct in square feet. A traverse across
the pipe or duct can be performed to determine the
mounting location for average velocity indication.
The FMA-900 can be mounted in pipes (down to
38 mm [1.5"] size) with the use of OMEGA®SSLK
compression fittings (SSLK-14-14, $8.50). PTFE
ferrules are required (T-FER-1/4, $40/10 pack).
Each unit is individually calibrated in OMEGA’s
NIST-traceable wind tunnel.
