Cubemass Coriolis Flowmeter for OEMs

Endress+Hauser's Cubemass Coriolisflowmeter is a small, lightweight flowmeter for installation in spraying orcoating equipment, engine test stands and process skids. Cubemass measures massflow, volumetric flow, temperature and density in a single unit, andcommunicates to controllers via pulse, frequency, 4-20mA current with HART andModbus RS485.

The Cubemass is available in four pipe sizes, from 1/24 to .25 inch (DIN1 to DIN 6) to measure flow from afew drops to 2,200 lb-hour (1,000 kg-hour), with mass flow accuracy of +/- 0.10percent of reading, and repeatability of 0.05 percent for liquids. It alsomeasures density in liquids with accuracy up to +/- 0.001 g/cc withrepeatability of 0.0005 g/cc. The flowmeter can handle a wide variety ofliquids, such as additives, corrosion inhibitors, fuels, coolants, surfacelacquers and perfume. Cubemass can withstand process pressures up to 5800 psi(400 bar) and temperatures up to 392F (200C).

Suitable for use in hazardous environments, the Cubemass has ATEX,IECEx, NEPSI, NEC/CEC and TIISapprovals. Its 904L stainless steel measuring tube allows it to be used in somefood applications, such as ingredient injection.

Two models are available: the standard Cubemass, which is suitable forall applications, and the Cubemass DCI,which has a local display and controls, allowing users to read and operate theflowmeter locally. The display on the DCImodel can be mounted on the flowmeter or on a panel.

Both flowmeters are easy to install, with VCOcouplings and adapter sets that accommodate most process connections, and theycan be mounted in any orientation for convenience.

Flowmeter Maintenance
Cubemass flowmeters can be checked in the field with standardEndress+Hauser Fieldcheck and FieldXpert handhelds or FieldCare PC software.

Fieldcheck is a handheld device that works with all Endress+Hauserinstrumentation. It plugs into the flowmeter and allows a technician to checkall vital functions of the sensor and transmitter, and compare the results to areference. FieldXpert is a similar device, based on an industrial handheld PDAand is wireless.

FieldCare software helps a technician configure and service flowmetersin the field. The PC-based software connects to the flowmeter via a Fieldcheckdevice or remotely via HART or Modbus. FieldCare can be used for commissioning,maintenance analysis, measuring device configuration, service functions,monitoring process data, troubleshooting, and controlling a Fieldcheck device.

OEMs and end users who already use Endress+Hauser instrumentation intheir products or plants can accommodate Cubemass flowmeters with theirstandard Fieldcheck and Fieldcare systems.
