Product type: Direct mass flowmeter (Coriolis mass flowmeter)
Product name: FMD-Series Dosing Flowmeter
Version No. A-EN-05809-00Rev.A
2. Area of Application
The area of application of all the FMD dosing flowmeters is the measurement and the dosing of liquid
flows. They are used to dispense liquids with different properties. The focus is on the measurement
of non-conductive liquids with a low content of gas or solids. This equipment is also designed for the
purposes of measurement of oil, distilled water, or alkanes. As a result, they complete the range of
dosing flowmeters manufactured by Bopp & Reuther Messtechnik GmbH along with magnetic
inductive flowmeters and dosing oval gear flowmeters.
Due to the measuring principle, direct measurement of the mass of dosage is possible.
Coriolis Dosing Mass Flow Meter Series FMD provides the highest quality of dosing due to their
highly accurate measurement even at very short intervals of dosing.
The Series FMD is manufactured with nominal sizes DN10 and DN15. Depending on the type of
process connection, they can be used up to PN 40; the maximum operating temperature is 90 °C.
For cleaning and sterilization the devices can be subjected to SIP processes up to 140 °C.
As an accessory for the Coriolis Mass Flow Meter there is a compact controller with touch screen
and integrated PLC. So can be operated independently 4 dosing points.
With the help of such a compact controller, small filling and dosing systems can easily and
conveniently be put together.

3. Principle of Operation and System Design
3.1 Measuring Principle
Dosing flowmeters that use the Coriolis principle are classified as direct mass flowmeters. They
consist of two U-shaped measuring tubes, an actuator, and two sensors.
In operation, the two measuring tubes are stimulated to an antiphase oscillation. Without flow, both
sides of the measuring tubes vibrate equally and the sensors deliver in-phase signals.
When liquid flows through the measurement tubes, the inlet end of the tube decelerates and the
outlet end of the tube accelerates by the occurring Coriolis effect. As a result a phase difference in
the two sensor signals is generated, which is proportional to the mass flow.

Sensor signals with flow

3.2 Design
The Coriolis Dosing Mass Flow Meter Series FMD has a compact design and consists of the
following components:
Sensor:
The sensor consists essentially of two parallel measuring tubes. Sensors are mounted to these tubes
on the inlet side and the outlet side. Excitation leads to vibration of the measuring tubes. Additionally
a temperature sensor is installed. At the inlet and the outlet flow dividers are installed that distribute
the measured medium between the measuring tubes.
Transducer electronic:
The transducer electonic is connected to the sensor. The electronic receives the signals sent by the
sensor and calculates the measuring values. Pulses are generated in accordance with the flow and
sent to the control unit. The electronic expect a status signal of the control unit (see § 4.3).

FMD08 15 2 - 45 28,293
The sensors are designed in such a way that at nominal flow (with water at 20 °C) a pressure drop of
approximately 1 bar occurs. The devices can easily be operated at higher flow rates. But it is
important to ensure that cavitation does not occur.

Messtechnik GmbH
4.3 Status Signal
The dosing flowmeter requires a valve status signal from the control unit.
Pulses are generated only after the status signal is switched on/active. Even after the signal to close
the valve was given, pulses are generated until the flow completely stops. Pulses arriving after the
signal to close the valve are so-called overflow (trailing volume). This depends on the used valve and
can be accounted in the control unit to achieve precisely the required initial set.
5. Output
5.1 Output Signal
A pulse output is available for transmitting of the measured mass flow. The output pulses are active,
i.e., they don’t require an external power supply. Only an external pull-down resistor is necessary,
which, however, is already included in the input circuit of the majority of control units.
The pulse output Idle High.
The pulse-pause ratio is 1:1.
Pulse voltage corresponds to the supply voltage.
The maximum load of the output is 20 mA.
6. Characteristic parameter
6.1 Reference conditions
The dosing flowmeters are calibrated in accordance to the standard method of calibration with the
use of water.

7.1.1.1 General information
 Only trained personnel who have been authorized by the system operator are allowed to perform
assembly, electrical installations, commissioning, maintenance and operation. You must have
read and understood the instructions and follow their instructions strictly.
 The dosing flowmeters manufactured by Bopp & Reuter are precision mass flow meters and
require careful maintenance.
 It is necessary to comply with the specified operating parameters, the order confirmation and the
configuration data sheet. If you want to use the device under differing operating conditions,
consult Bopp & Reuther Messtechnik GmbH indicating the factory number.
 Installation of the dosing flowmeter must be implemented so that it is completely filled with liquid
even at rest.
 To avoid measuring inaccuracies due to gas bubbles or contamination, preventive measures
must be taken.
7.1.1.2 Installation
No inlet and outlet piping lines are required. The equipment must be installed in a way to prevent
accumulation of gases and solid particles inside.
1. For the liquids with solids of a greater density than the fluid, in a horizontal line.
2. For the liquids with gases or solids of a lower density than the fluid, in a horizontal line.
3. For all liquids in a vertical line.
The devices can be installed horizontally or vertically (see the drawing). It is necessary to ensure that
the measuring tubes are completely filled during operation. Vertical installation may require a cross-
sectional constriction in order to prevent spontaneous draining of the device during dosing.
