Requirements
The FMG70 Series from OMEGA 
is a trio of extremely compact, low 
cost, inductive magnetic flow  
sensors. This product line  
allows a unique and highly reliable 
measuring technique to be  
introduced into areas of process 
control previously considered not 
possible.
Changes of temperature, density, 
viscosity, concentration or electrical 
conductivity (minimum conductivity 
of 50 µs/cm) of the fluid do not  
affect the output signal.
FMG70 series can be used in areas 
where flow sensors with moving 
parts e. g. paddle wheel sensors, 
cannot be applied due to  
contamination/particulate in the 
media. The sensor is intended for 
continuously measuring of flow 
rates or for dosing/batching of  
electrically conductive liquids  
(minimum conductivity 50 S/cm). 
The output signal frequency (or  
current) is proportional to the flow. 
Two options are available for  
output signals, frequency or  
analog (-A Models).
