Coriolis Mass Flow Meter for Liquids and Gases

> Introduction
Bronkhorst® model M14 mini CORI-FLOW™ Mass Flow Meters
(MFMs) are precise and compact instruments, based on the
Coriolis measuring principle, designed to cover the needs of the
low flow market. The MFMs offer “multi-range” functionality:
factory calibrated ranges can be rescaled by the user,
maintaining the original accuracy specs. The instruments are
equipped with a robust IP65 weatherproof housing and are
optionally available with ATEX approval for use in Zone 2
hazardous areas. The MFM contains a microprocessor based pc-
board with signal and fieldbus conversion and a PID controller for
optional mass flow control by means of a separately mounted
control valve or pump. The mass flow is provided as analog signal or
digitally via RS232 or optional fieldbus. The flow range and wetted
materials are determined depending of the type of fluid and the
process conditions of the application.
