The OMEGA® FPB100 Series 
flow sensor is the next generation in 
fluid measurement technology.  
This new sensor is an improvement 
on what is already an industry 
standard. It has the added 
functionality of various output 
options including flow switch, 
multi-functional pulse divider or  
4 to 20 mA. Additionally, it offers 
low flow, low power and high 
resolution and can be configured 
onsite directly through the built-in 
user interface. Installation is simple 
because the OMEGA FPB100 
Series utilizes the same fittings 
as the popular OMEGA FP5000 
and FP8500 Series paddlewheel 
sensors and fits into pipe sizes 
ranging from DN15 to DN200  
(0.5 to 8”). Available in 
polypropylene and PVDF, it is  
ideal for a variety of applications 
including chemical processing, 
water and wastewater monitoring 
and scrubber control.
