CoriolisMaster FCB100, FCH100

Product catalog summary
Overview
The ABB CoriolisMaster FCB100 and FCH100 are compact mass flowmeters designed for precise measurement of mass, volume flow, density, temperature, and concentration. They feature Modbus communication, configurable digital outputs, and are approved for explosion protection and legal metrology.
Specifications
The flowmeters are available with various process connections and are constructed from stainless steel or nickel-alloy. They are suitable for explosive environments and comply with hygiene standards for certain models. The devices support a wide temperature range and have an IP rating of 65/67/68.
Models and Accuracy
Models FCB130, FCB150, FCH130, and FCH150 offer varying accuracy levels for mass and volume flow, density, and temperature measurements, suitable for both liquid and gas.
Software Tools
Includes DensiMass for concentration measurements and FillMass for filling applications. Enhanced Coriolis Control (ECC) improves performance in challenging applications.
Legal Metrology
FCBx50 models are type-tested for legal metrology per MID/OIML R117 standards, with a 3-point flow rate calibration for accuracy.
Applications
Suitable for applications per API standards, offering parameters for calibration pressure and temperature, and compensation factors for flow and density calculations.
Diagnostics
The VeriMass function monitors the meter tube for erosion and deposits, triggering alarms if deviations are detected.
Installation
Proper installation is crucial, including adherence to ambient conditions and ensuring sensors are not exposed to direct sunlight. Suitable gaskets must be selected to prevent interference with the flow area.
Pressure Loss Calculation
Pressure loss is influenced by the medium's properties and flow rate. The ABB Online Product Selection Assistant is recommended for calculations.
Brackets and Supports
No special supports are needed if installed correctly. For heavier devices, additional supports are advised to prevent damage.
Inlet Section
No inlet section is required for the sensor. Devices can be installed near manifolds or valves, provided no cavitation occurs.
Mounting Position
The flowmeter can be mounted in any position, with certain positions preferable based on the medium and temperature.
Liquid Measuring Media
Ensure meter tubes are filled, and gases do not leak. Maintain a minimum back pressure of 0.2 bar.
Vertical and Horizontal Installation
For vertical installation, no special measures are needed. For horizontal installation, the transmitter should point upward.
Gaseous Measuring Media
Gases should be dry and free of liquids. Vertical installation with downward flow is recommended if condensate formation is unavoidable.
Turn-off Devices for Zero Point Adjustment
Turn-off devices are required for zero point balancing, with specific mounting recommendations.
Sensor Insulation
Insulation is allowed only with specific options. Heat tracing should not exceed 100°C.
EHEDG-compliant Installations
Follow specific instructions to prevent contamination. Self-draining functionality is guaranteed only in certain mounting positions.
Devices for Legal Metrology
Hardware write protection must be activated post-commissioning to prevent parameter changes.
Nominal Diameter and Measuring Range
Various nominal diameters are available, with specific maximum flow rates.
Measuring Accuracy
Accuracy is defined under specific reference conditions.
Specifications
Pressure loss curves and viscosity ranges are provided. Temperature limits and pressure ratings are specified.
