Functional Description of Flow Meters

FLUX flow meters are available in two different designs: the FMC models operate on the swivel-disc principle, while the FMO models consist of a measuring chamber with oval wheels.

To the product overview

FMC 100, FMJ 100, FMC 250

The FMC 100, FMJ 100, and FMC 250 flow meters operate on the swivel disc principle. In this system, the flow of liquid sets the swivel disc in motion. The FLUXTRONIC^® evaluation unit calculates the volume dispensed based on the number of rotations. For maximum measurement accuracy, the system must always be completely filled with liquid (full-tube system).

FMO 101, 102, 104, 110, 140, 150

The FMO 101, 102, 104, 110, 140, and 150 flow meters consist of a measuring chamber with oval wheels. The fluid flows through the measuring chamber, thereby driving the oval wheels. A reed sensor counts the number of revolutions made during this process and transmits this information to the external FLUXTRONIC^® unit. Based on a previously entered, medium-specific calibration constant, the FLUXTRONIC® calculates the volume of fluid that has flowed through.
