Coriolis Mass Flow Meters in Batching Applications – The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Overview:

Coriolis mass flowmeters are the most accurate of the industrial flow measurement technologies, and the only flowmeter that claims to measure true liquid mass flow directly. They are widely used in both continuous and batch processes. They are often used in batch processes as a less-expensive alternative to load cell weighing systems (the good). As with any other flow metering technology, Coriolis has its own application “watch outs,” including a requirement that the flowmeter be totally and completely full of non-aerated liquid during the measurement.
