Flow received state
FLOW
The FA Series flow meter measure flow rates using heat from the heater
and a temperature sensor. In a no flow state, the air temperature
distribution around the heater is uniform, so there is no difference in the
temperature between the upstream and downstream temperature sensor
positions. When flow is received in this state, the downstream temperature
rises while the upstream temperature falls, so a temperature difference
between the upstream and downstream sensor positions is generated.
This temperature different is measured and a flow rate is calculated.
■Rotary display
The display of the flow meter can be rotated 90°to the left or 180°to the right,
making it easy to read regardless of whether piping is horizontal or vertical.

■Features
●Separation measurement using an orifice for large-volume flow measurement at each piping port and small
pressure load.
●A self-diagnostic function simplifies troubleshooting in the case of product trouble.
●In the case of the FAS-030, FAS-060, and FAS-120 models, replacement required in the case of malfunction
can be achieve by replacing the bypass unit only, without detaching piping. However, the ±3%FS guaranteed
accuracy of the replacement product becomes ±5%FS.
●Range extension function
The FA Series flow meter displays up to double the maximum flow measurement range, and support analog
output and switch output.
However, the measurement accuracy of the additional part is approximately ±10%RD.
●Reverse flow detection function
FA Series flow meters can display a reverse flow (flow in the opposite direction from unit's flow arrow) up to 30% of the
maximum flow measurement range, and flow integration. However, reverse flow measurement accuracy is approximately
±6%FS, and analog output and switch output (except for some integrating functions) is not possible.
Example of use
Flow measurement
between lines and
divisions enables
division-specific cost
allocation. It also
helps to avoid over
use of air.
Knowing the flow over
time provides a means to
reduce power consumption
by optimization of
compressor operations
(load, unload, power off).
The integrated
reverse flow makes it
possible to integrate
reverse flows as well.
A wide flow measurement
range makes it possible to
obtain an understanding
of line stoppage time and
the amount of leakage.
* Remark: RD stands for "reading" (read value). With the FAS-002, error is ±30 ℓ/min (ANR) [±1.06 ft3/min] (normal)
for an instantaneous flow display of 300 ℓ/min (ANR) [10.6 ft3/min] (normal) and error is ±40 ℓ/min (ANR) [±1.413
ft3/min] (normal) for an instantaneous flow display of 400 ℓ/min (ANR) [14.1 ft3/min] (normal).
The results of air
consumption
reduction is readily
apparent from values
that are produced.

Safety Precautions (Flow Meters FA Series)
DANGER
●Do not attempt any adjustment (connecting or disconnecting
wire connectors, piping work, etc.) to mechanisms attached to
the product while the product is operating. Abnormal operation
creates the risk of personal injury.
WARNING
●Do not apply external magnetic field to the flow meter while it
is operating. Unintended operations could damage equipment
or cause injury.
●When wiring, take care to ensure that wiring polarity is correct.
Incorrect polarity could result in damage to the flow meter.
CAUTION
●Do not subject flow meter cables that have connectors to
excessive loads by pulling on them, lifting the product by
them, or by placing heavy objects on them. Doing so may
cause current leakage or defective continuity leading to fire,
electric shock, or abnormal operation.
●While handling the flow meter, do not subject them to
excessive shock (490 m/s2[50 G] or greater) by hitting,
dropping or bumping it. Even if the product appears
undamaged, damage to internal components can cause
abnormal operation.
●Avoid short circuiting loads.
Turning on switch output while a load short-circuit condition
exists can cause damage to the flow meter due to over
current.
Load short-circuit example: output lead of switch output
connected to DC power supply.
The safety precautions below are specific to FA Series flow
meters. For other safety precautions in addition to the infor-
mation below, also be sure to read the safety precautions at
the front of the general personal catalog.
Handling Instructions and Precautions
General precautions
Mounting location
Avoid installing the FA Series Flow Meter in the following types of locations.
1. Locations where the ambient temperature or product temperature is -10℃
[14℉] or lower, or exceeds 60℃[140℉].
2. Locations where the ambient humidity exceeds 90%RH.
3. Locations subjected to sudden temperature changes that can cause
condensation.
4. Locations subjected to concentrations of corrosive and/or flammable gasses.
5. Locations subjected to high amounts of dust, salt, iron powder, or other
conductive matter, moisture, oil mist, or organic solvents.
6. Locations where the product is directly subjected to vibration and/or impact.
7. Locations exposed to direct sunlight.
8. Locations where water, rain, or other moisture can get on the product.
9. Locations where oil or chemicals can get on the product.
10. Locations that are always wet or dusty, or subject to water or dust.
11. Locations where strong magnetism or strong electric fields are being
generated.
Operation outside the maximum flow range
When the flow rate exceeds the maximum flow rate range of the FA
Series Flow Meter, the alarm message " " will alternate on the
display with the flow rate reading. Always use this flow meter within the
specified maximum flow rate range.
Mounting and piping
Piping
1. The FA Series Flow Meter is a precision instrument. Take care when handling
it. It can be damaged by dropping it or otherwise subjecting it to strong impact.
2. Whenever connecting piping to the FA Series Flow Meter, make sure that the
direction of the arrow marked on it matches the flow direction of the fluid.
3. When connecting piping, do not apply force to the bypass unit section.
4. When connecting piping, secure the main flow channel and rotate the pipe to
the suitable tightening torque range.

5. Take care to keep foreign matter from flowing into the FA Series Flow Meter.
Any rust, water droplets, oil mist, dust, or other foreign matter inside piping
that gets into the FA Series Flow Meter creates the risk of measurement
error and damage to the flow meter. Before installation, be sure to thoroughly
flush both the upstream and downstream piping (pipe cleaning) and check to
make sure there is no foreign matter present.

Handling Instructions and Precautions
Mounting direction 1: With horizontal piping, display upwards. (Standard direction)
Mounting direction 2: Horizontal piping with the display on the right when viewed from the
flow meter IN side pipe. When using this installation attitude, set the
low flow cut parameter value to 5. Failure to do so will cause the flow
rate to be displayed (output) even when there is no fluid flowing. The
normal flow side and back flow side integral functions activate, causing
the flow rate values to be integrated.

6. When connecting piping, apply an appropriate amount of sealant. Do not apply
sealant to the first two threads of the end of the pipe. Over-application of sealant can
cause it to get inside the piping, creating the risk of measurement error and damage
to the FA Series Flow Meter.
7. If different-diameter piping, a regulator, filter, valve, or other piping equipment is
installed upstream from the FA Series Flow Meter, be sure to provide a straight pipe
section as recommended. See "Specification accuracy and straight pipe section" for
more information. Failure to provide a straight pipe section can cause flow rate errors.
8. Connecting expansion pipe or a tube coupler without providing a straight pipe
section can produce a negative flow rate reading due to back flow in bypass unit,
even though there is normal flow as far as the product is concerned.
9. Installing the display section on horizontal piping so it is in a downward orientation
may cause rust, water droplets, oil mist, dust, or other foreign matter to adhere to
the sensor, creating the risk of measurement errors and damage to the FA Series
Flow Meter. Do not use the display section in a downward orientation.
Installing the display section on horizontal piping in a sideways orientation will cause
errors due to the effect of the attitude. For details, see "Installation Attitudes" below.
10. Do not install in locations where the effects of pulsating flow or flow maldistribution
are present, such as in the vicinity of the compressor delivery port, on bellows
piping, etc. Also, do not install in a location where a regulator or check valve is
performing hunting. Doing so creates the risk of measurement error.

Note 4: Contact Koganei for information about 1 1/2B and 2B size filters and mist filters.
5: Required direct piping when connecting a filter with the same diameter as the flow meter.
6: A reduction pipe connection example (within the product specification range (±3%FS)) for
the FAS-002 is shown below.
When connecting one size larger piping (for example, 1/2B for the FAS-002), take the
specified value*+5D for direct piping before the flow meter and the specified value*+5D for the
direct piping after the flow meter.
* Piping length when connecting piping one size larger than the specified value.
7: A reduction pipe connection example (within the product specification range (±3%FS)) for
the FAS-005is shown below.
Do not connect piping that is thinner than the connection port without direct piping. Reverse
flow by the bypass unit is possible even though the product is providing normal direction
flow, and produce a negative reading on the flow display. Or an extremely low flow value
may be displayed in place of the actual flow.
Or when connecting one size smaller piping (for example, 1/4B for the FAS-005), take the
specified value*+10D for direct piping before the flow meter and the specified value*+5D for
the direct piping after the flow meter.
* Piping length when connecting piping one size smaller than the specified value.
8: Reference diagrams for a single elbow and double elbow are shown below.
9: Install valves for flow adjustment downstream from the flow meter.
10:Install when the distance from the flow meter is greater than the specified distance. It makes
no difference whether piping from the regulator to the flow meter is constructed of tubing or
an elbow bend. However, install the required direct piping when connecting with the flow
meter with an elbow bend. Allow for distance even if a filter or mist filter is inserted.

Filter
• Whenever there is the risk of foreign matter (dust, sediment, oil mist, etc.) being
mixed in with the measured fluid, be sure to install upstream from the FA Series Flow
Meter a filter and mist filter that can remove foreign matter measuring 1μm or larger.
• Periodically inspect and replace filters, and perform other periodic maintenance as
required.
Specification accuracy and pipe section
Install the FA Series Flow Meter so the arrow marked on its label is pointed in the
same direction as the fluid flow direction. When connecting different diameter tubing,
valves, filters, and other equipment, provides straight pipe in accordance with the
information in the table below.
A "straight pipe" is straight piping that is the same bore diameter as the flow meter.
The following types of pipes are suitable as straight pipe: carbon steel pipes for
ordinary piping (JIS G3452), carbon steel pipes for pressure service (JIS G3454),
Schedule 40 or less, and stainless steel pipes (JIS G3459), Schedule 40.
Note1
For equipment not included in the table below, provide 15D or larger straight piping
when installing it upstream from the FA Series Flow Meter, and 5D or larger straight
piping when installing it downstream from the FA Series Flow Meter. The letter D
represents the bore diameter.
Note2
When measuring back flow in addition to normal flow, the same length as the
upstream straight pipe is required downstream from the FA Series Flow Meter.
Note 1: Note that accuracy deteriorates when piping carbon steel pipes for pressure
service (JIS G3454) or stainless steel pipes (JIS G3459), larger than Schedule 40
is connected. A larger schedule results in a smaller pipe inside diameter which
causes a pipe effect and deteriorated accuracy.
2: The approximate D (bore diameter) for FAS-002 (1/4B) is 8 mm [0.315 in], for
FAS-005 (1/2B) is 15 mm [0.591 in], for FAS-030 (1B) is 25 mm [0.984 in], for
FAS-060 (1 1/2B) is 40 mm [1.575 in], and for FAS-120 (2B) is 50 mm [1.969 in].
3: Always provide a filter upstream from the mist filter.

•For connection with a quick fitting
Provide the straight pipe section noted in the table below when
connecting the FA Series Flow Meter to a quick fitting.
Connecting without a straight pipe section can produce a
negative reading due to bypass unit back flow, even if flow in the
main channel itself is normal direction flow. Also, the readout may
show an extremely low flow rate instead of the actual flow rate.

Connections
1. Use a power supply that is within the specification range.
2. Wire a cable with connector separately from power lines and high voltage
lines (use a separate conduit). Noise from these lines may cause the
equipment to operate erratically.
3. When connecting a cable with connector, align the core wire and push it in as
far as it will go. Next, tighten the connector nut by hand. When tightening the
nut, be sure to keep it within the prescribed torque (0.4 to 0.6 N·m [3.540 to
5.311 in·lbf] range). Failure to do so creates the risk of damage to the FA
Series Flow Meter and inability to maintain the IP65 protective structure, and
loosening of the nut due to vibration.
4. Do not pull on the cable with strong force and do not lift the FA Series Flow Meter
by the cable (pull out strength: 40 N [8.992 lbf] or less; bend strength; 20 N [4.496
lbf] or less). Also, do not subject the cable to repeated bending or pulling force.
5. Do not rotate the center part of the connector (see figure below) while the
connector is inserted fully into the FA Series Flow Meter. Doing so will cause
the FA Series Flow Meter connector to rotate, which can cause internal wiring
to twist and become damaged.

6. Always turn off the power supply before doing any wiring.
7. Keep load resistance connected to the instantaneous flow rate output below 300 Ω.
8. Keep cable and connector ends away from moisture when doing wiring.
9. Double-check to make sure that wiring is correct before turning on power.
Wiring error creates the risk of damage and erratic operation.

Note 1: (normal) is a value converted to a 0°C [32°F], 101.325 kPa [29.9 inHg] (abs) flow.
2: "FS flow" is the maximum flow of the flow measurement range.
3: "RD" stands for "reading" (read value).
4: A minus (−) flow rate value indicates a back flow rate (flow in the direction opposite that indicated by the flow meter arrow).
5: Regardless of the unit of display and the decimal point position, this indicates resolution from the lowest display digit.
6: A flow rate inside of parentheses ( ) is for installation attitudes 2 and 3.
7: This accuracy is a value representing instantaneous flow rate display accuracy along with instantaneous display repeatability.
8: See the installation attitudes on page 1675.
9: Replacing the bypass unit with a new unit causes instantaneous flow rate display accuracy to become ±5％FS ±1 digit. (FAS-030, FAS-060, FAS-120)
10: The back flow side cannot output.
11: Back flow side settings cannot be configured.
