KROHNE has announced its latest Coriolis flowmeter technology for flow measurement applications, which is designed to address important process measurement challenges experienced in food processing.

Coriolis flowmeters provide mass flow accuracy of approximately 0.1 percent, which is 5–10 times more accurate than competing flow measurement technologies, according to KROHNE. The instruments simultaneously measure mass flow, density, and temperature, offering comprehensive process insights with a single device.

Uniquely, KROHNE's Coriolis meters can be installed in any orientation without requiring specific flow profiles or straight pipe runs.

Additionally, KROHNE’s single straight tube design offers benefits for challenging processes that cannot accommodate bent tube solutions, as well as advantages such as low pressure drop, easy installation, and improved handling of shear-sensitive fluids.

A significant advancement in KROHNE's Coriolis technology is the proprietary Entrained Gas Management (EGM) feature. EGM allows for continued operation in two-phase flow conditions, a situation that traditionally causes Coriolis meters to cease functioning. The feature enables the meter to continue measuring repeatably without process interruption, even when accuracy may be slightly degraded from published specifications.

KROHNE markets its Coriolis flowmeters as especially useful in mass-based operations, recipe formulation, blending applications, and scenarios where ownership changes are transacted.
