N — … General data Enhanced Coriolis Control (ECC)function The Enhanced Coriolis Control (ECC)function has been specially developed for demanding applications, such as: • Liquids with gas phase • Liquids with rapidly changing densities • Fill operations with surge phases at the beginning or end • Liquids with high viscosity After the ECC function is activated, the device applies a particularly quick control algorithm to control the oscillating tubes in the device and therefore provide significantly better behavior in the applications...

FCB400, FCH400 CORIOLIS MASS FLOWMETER | DS/FCB400/FCH400-EN REV. N — Flowmeter sensor VeriMass erosion monitor General installation conditions The integrated diagnosis function VeriMass allows the status of the meter tube to be monitored. This enables changes due to material erosion and the formation of deposits on the meter tube walls to be identified at an early stage. If the set limit value is exceeded, an alarm is triggered, for example via the programmable digital output or HART, depending on the configuration. The limit value for the erosion monitor can be set either automatically or manually....

FCB400, FCH400 CORIOLIS MASS FLOWMETER | DS/FCB400/FCH400-EN REV. N — … Flowmeter sensor Brackets and supports No special supports or damping are required for the device when the device is used and installed as intended. In systems designed in accordance with ‘Best Practice’, the forces acting on the device are already sufficiently absorbed. This is also true of devices installed in series or in parallel. For heavier devices, it is advisable to use additional supports / brackets on site. Doing this prevents damage to the process connections and piping from lateral forces. Please observe the following...

FCB400, FCH400 CORIOLIS MASS FLOWMETER | DS/FCB400/FCH400-EN REV. N For vertical installation in a riser, no special measures are required. B For vertical installation in a downpipe, a piping constriction or an orifice must be installed below the sensor. Doing this prevents the sensor from draining during the measurement. Gaseous measuring media Horizontal installation Observe the following points to avoid measuring errors: • Gases must be dry and free of liquids and condensates. • Avoid the accumulation of liquids and the formation of condensate in the meter tube. • During operation, there must...
