PACKING LIST
Please verify that the product is complete and without any damage. The

DESCRIPTION
The new FLS F6.60 is a ow meter without moving mechanical parts which
can be applied for the measurement of dirty liquids so long as they are
conductive and homogeneous.
The F6.60 can provide three different options: frequency output to
be connected to FLS ow monitors, 4-20 mA output for long distance
transmission and PLC connection and the new volume pulse output freely
settable.
F6.60 Insertion Magmeter is provided with an USB interface and a dedicated
software (freely downloadable from FLS web site) which allows to easily set
by a PC all parameters according to specic installation requirements (as full
scale and cut off).
The specic design allows an accurate ow measurement over a wide
dynamic range in pipe sizes from DN15 (0.5”) to DN600 (24”).

INSTALLATION
Pipe Location
• The six most common installation congurations shown in g. 1 help in
selecting the best location in the pipeline for paddlewheel ow sensor as well
for magmeter ow sensor.
• The three congurations in g. 2 ensure that the pipe is always full: for a
correct measurement the sensor can NOT be exposed to air bubbles at any
time.
• The three installations in Fig. 3 should be avoided unless you are absolutely
sure the sensor is not exposed to air bubbles.
• In gravity-ow systems the connection to the tank must be designed so the
level does not drop below the outlet: this to avoid pipe to draw air in from the
tank causing a inaccurate measurement of sensor (see Fig. 4).
• For more information, please refer to EN ISO 5167-1.
• Always maximize distance between ow sensors and pumps.

Process connection
1. Lubricate the sensor O-rings
with a silicone lubricant. Do
not use any petroleum based
lubricant that may damage the
O-rings.
2. Lower the sensor into the tting
making sure the alignment tab is
seated in the tting notch.
3. Hand tighten the sensor cap.
Do not use any tool otherwise
cap and/or tting threads may be
damaged.
Mounting position
Measuring part of sensor (rotor for paddlewheel and pins for magmeter)
should be positioned at 12% of ID where, basing on insertion theory, average
velocity can be measured.
The reading accuracy of insertion ow sensors can be affected by:
• air bubbles;
• sediments;
• friction between shaft and bearings (only for paddlewheel).
In a horizontal pipe runs, the mounting position to get the best performances is
at a 45° angle (Fig. 3) to avoid air bubbles as well sediments. Vertical position
(Fig. 2) can be chosen in case air bubbles are not present. Do not mount the
sensor on the bottom of the pipe (Fig. 1) if sediments are likely. Do not mount
paddlewheel at 90° otherwise friction can affect measurement.
Installation in a vertical pipe runs can be done xing any orientation.
Upward ow is preferred to ensure full pipe.

WIRING
General recommendation
Always ensure the power supply is switched off before working on the device.
Make wiring connections according to wiring diagrams.
• Terminals accept 26 to 12 AWG (0.08 to 2.5 mm2)
• Strip around 10 mm (0.4”) of insulation from the wire tips and tin bare ends to
avoid fraying.
• Ferrules are suggested when connecting more than one wire to a single
terminal.
• Remove the upper part of the terminals for an easy cabling.
• Insert wire tip or ferrule completely into the terminal and x with the screw
until nger tight.
• Do not route the sensor, DC power, or 4-20mA cables in conduit containing
AC power wiring. Electrical noise may interfere with sensor signal.
• Routing the sensor cable in grounded metal conduit can help prevent
electrical noise and mechanical damage.
Specic info
Pull the electrical cables through liquid tight connectors.
Use electrical cables with the proper external diameter for the liquid tight
connector.
PG11/PG9: external diameter between 2-7 mm (0.079-0.276”)
