        Coriolis sensors

        Whether you need to measure low flow rates, corrosive liquids or even compressed natural gas, SITRANS F C sensors can handle it all - providing maximum accuracy and safety for a wide range of pipe sizes.

        For world-class accuracy in low-flow applications, choose from the SITRANS F C MASS 2100 in size DI 1.5 / DI 3-15 or the SITRANS FC300 in size DN 4. For extra flexibility in compressed natural gas (CNG) installations, the ultra-compact SITRANS FCS200 fits in where space is crucial. For the ultimate in innovative design and robust performance, the SITRANS FCS300 is ideal. And for OEM and skid manufacturers, a SITRANS FCS400 OEM version is available in sizes DN 15-50.

        SITRANS F C Coriolis flowmeters

        Designed for high-accuracy mass flow measurement with a low cost of ownership, SITRANS F C Coriolis flowmeters are ideal for demanding liquid and gas processes in every industry - from the smallest dose of chemicals to the massive quanities of bunker fuel pumped into a cargo ship.

        How does a Coriolis flowmeter work?

        The Coriolis effect is a driving force behind the exceptional performance of SITRANS F C flowmeters.

         

        Two symmetrical metal tubes are set vibrating. This is ensured by a driver coil in the central section. The oscillation is measured precisely by two pickups - at the inlet and outlet sections. If liquids or gases now flow through the tubes, a phase shift occurs - as with a water hose. The pickups measure the spatial and temporal displacement. This determines the amount of liquid or gas flowing through the tubes.

        Vandemoortele
        Izegem, Belgium
        Food & Beverage

        Ensuring a smooth-running margarine recovery process

        • Since 1899, the Vandemoortele plant has been providing Belgium with high-value frozen bakery products, packed margarines and shortenings.

        • Vandemoortele is using the SITRANS FC430 Coriolis flowmeter to optimize the margarine melting process with high measurement accuracy and user-friendly operation.

        • “Collaboration has been outstanding, and Siemens has shown it is a constructive business partner. Moreover, the Siemens instrumentation team has been highly reactive, always available to provide additional information or support when needed.”

        Chemical

        Cost-efficient carpet dyeing with Coriolis flow measurement

        • Lano Carpets decided to stop manufacturing its dyes in batches and switch to a continuous process using an inline mixer that produces the right color instantly.

        • A SITRANS FC410 Coriolis flowmeter was installed to measure the volumes of the coloring agents pumped into the machine, with control and supervision of the application handled by a SIMATIC WinCC system.

        • The Coriolis meter provides maximum precision for the pump control system, which plays a pivotal role in the mixing process.

        Pharmaceutical

        Protecting our livestock – and ourselves – from harmful bacteria

        • Since 2002, Epitopix has discovered, developed, produced and sold vaccines that improve animal health and human food safety.

        • To optimize the vaccine production process, Epitopix uses a SITRANS FC430 flowmeter for monitoring the recirculation rate of oil and any resulting changes in density

        • “We are now much better equipped to optimize the time per volume processed and – most importantly – improve consistency from one finished batch of vaccine to the next.”
