Description

1. Introduction to Coriolis Flow Meter MT-F100CR

The Coriolis Flow Meter MT-F100CR is a highly accurate and versatile instrument designed for measuring mass flow, density, and temperature of liquids and gases in various industrial applications. Its advanced Coriolis principle allows direct measurement of mass flow without being affected by fluid properties such as viscosity, phase, or turbulence, making it suitable for both single-phase and multi-phase liquids.

This flow meter is ideal for applications in chemical processing, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and any industry requiring precise mass flow monitoring and high reliability. Its robust design ensures long-term stability even under challenging operating conditions.

2. Working Principle

The MT-F100CR operates on the Coriolis effect. The flow meter consists of a vibrating measuring tube through which the fluid passes. As the fluid moves, the inertia causes a measurable phase difference between the inlet and outlet sections of the tube. Sensors detect this difference and calculate the mass flow rate directly.

Simultaneously, the meter measures the vibration frequency to determine fluid density, and the built-in temperature sensor provides real-time temperature readings. This combination allows calculation of volumetric flow, mass flow, and fluid density accurately, even under varying process conditions.

3. Key Features

The MT-F100CR is equipped with multiple advanced features:

  • Direct mass flow measurement independent of fluid properties.

  • High accuracy and repeatability (±0.2% ±0.15% optional ±0.5%).

  • Wide range ratio up to 100:1.

  • Measures density with ±0.001 g/cm³ accuracy.

  • Built-in temperature measurement with ±0.2°C repeatability.

  • Capable of measuring single-phase, multi-phase, Newtonian, and non-Newtonian fluids.

  • Excellent anti-corrosion performance for various fluid materials.

  • Real-time measurement of mass flow, volumetric flow, density, temperature, and other process variables.

  • Minimal influence from viscosity, pressure, and vibration.

4. Applications

The MT-F100CR is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications:

  • Chemical processing and petrochemical plants.

8. Principle of Measurement

The MT-F100CR uses the vibration of the measuring tube to determine mass flow and density:

  • The vibrating tube produces a phase difference between the inlet and outlet, directly proportional to mass flow.

  • Sensors detect this phase shift and calculate the mass flow in real time.

  • Vibration frequency is used to calculate fluid density accurately.

  • Built-in temperature sensors provide immediate readings for process monitoring.

  • Advanced algorithms compensate for temperature fluctuations, pressure variations, and vibration effects, ensuring consistent measurements.
