The present disclosure relates to a device for determining a flow-velocity-dependent variable of a medium in a guide body, where the guide body includes a magnetic-field-generating device generating a first magnetic field separating movable charge carriers in the medium, and a magnetic-field-sensitive measuring assembly designed to provide a measurement signal and which correlates with a change in and/or a strength of a second magnetic field generated by the movable charge carriers. The magnetic field-sensitive measuring assembly comprises a magnetic-field-sensitive measuring device that comprises an optically excitable material. The magnetic-field-sensitive measuring assembly has an optical excitation unit for optically exciting the magnetic-field-sensitive measuring device and an optical detection unit for detecting the measurement signal. An evaluation unit is designed to determine the flow-velocity-dependent variable of the medium at least the measurement signal provided by the magnetic-field-sensitive assembly and the conductivity of the medium.
