The FMI Magnetic Inductive Flow Meter from Anderson-Negele is designed for highly accurate flow rate and volumetric measurement of fluids and pastes for customers from the Food- and Pharmaceutical industries. With an accuracy of ± 0.2% ± 1cm, the FMI exceeds the high expectations of the food and beverage industries as well as with product life span and cleaning; the FMI is also low maintenance and is available with all necessary certification for food and pharmaceutical applications.
With non-contact optical programming keys, the larger housing doesn’t need to be opened for programming; ensuring water ingress is reduced to a minimum. The FMI also has a larger and clearer display than the FMQ flow meter for clearer visibility.
The precise degree of accuracy at low & high flow rates permits the FMI to be used in applications ranging from dosing systems to pharmaceutical filling systems. As with all magnetic inductive flow meters, the media has to have a conductivity of 5μS/cm and can also be used to monitor media with < 5 % solid particle content (where the media has the same level of conductivity).
The sensor is made entirely of 316 stainless steel, with all of the media contacting materials being FDA approved. The FMI is suitable for CIP-/SIP-cleaning up to max. 130 °C (up to 30 minutes) and also has an automatic empty pipe detection, to protect other components in your system from dry running damage. With a simple user interface that doesn’t need the housing opening to adjust the parameters, moisture ingress, care and maintenance are all minimised. This is accompanied by a vacuum tight metering tube that is rigid, even at high temperatures and is also piggable.
