Unmatched Accuracy
The FPI Mag’s multi-electrode design and unique operating
principle delivers accuracy unmatched by other insertion
meters and rivals the performance of full-bore mag meters.
Robust Construction
With no moving parts, there is nothing to wear or break.
The sensor body is made from heavy-duty 316 stainless
steel for maximum structural integrity. The sensor body

The FPI Mag operates based on Faraday’s Law
of Electromagnetic Induction: When water (a
conductor) moves through a magnetic field, it
produces a voltage that is directly proportional to
the velocity of the conductor.

• Stainless steel electrode pairs installed on the CONVERTER
outside of the entire sensor length collect the
induced voltage caused by the flowing water The FPI Mag utilizes our pre-programmed converters*:
• Curve-fitting algorithm to improve accuracy
• The total voltage signal is then transmitted to the

The McCrometer Value Difference
For over 55 years, McCrometer has demonstrated an unyielding commitment to integrity
which is reflected in our stringent flow meter calibration processes. Each flow meter
is individually wet calibrated in one of our two world-class NIST traceable calibration
facilities and delivered with a Certificate of Calibration.
Our Hemet, California factory boasts a robust Calibration Test Lab that enables production
of the most accurate and precise flow instrumentation. The test facility utilizes three
gravimetric systems and two volumetric systems providing accuracy and calibration tests
of flow meters from 15 mm to 500 mm (1/2 to 20-inch) diameter, with flow rates up to 900
m3/hr (4,000 gpm).
Our large volume test facility is located in Porterville, California. This facility is one of the
world’s largest volumetric test facilities owned by a meter manufacturer, and it offers
accuracy and calibration tests of flow meters from 80 mm to 1,800 mm (3 to 72-inch)
diameter, with flow rates up to 13,600 m3/hr (60,000 gpm).
