Endress+Hauser CML18-AAABA1: High-Performance Coriolis Flow Meter from the Micro Motion ELITE Series
H1: Precision Mass Flow, Density, and Temperature Measurement with the CML18-AAABA1
The Endress+Hauser CML18-AAABA1 is a flagship model within the world-renowned Micro Motion ELITE CMF Series of Coriolis flow meters. Engineered for demanding applications, this sensor delivers unparalleled accuracy and reliability in measuring mass flow, density, and temperature directly, making it a cornerstone for process optimization, quality control, and custody transfer.
Perfect for engineers and plant managers in industries like chemical processing, oil & gas, food & beverage, and pharmaceuticals, the CML18-AAABA1 ensures precise batching, blending, and monitoring of critical fluids.
Key Features & Benefits: Why Choose the CML18-AAABA1?
Unmatched Accuracy & Stability: Achieves exceptional precision in mass flow measurement and fluid density measurement, ensuring consistent product quality and reliable data for custody transfer applications.
Direct Measurement Technology: Unlike volumetric meters, Coriolis technology measures mass flow directly, eliminating the need for compensations for changing fluid properties like pressure, temperature, or viscosity.
Multi-Parameter Output: One instrument provides three key process variables: Mass Flow Rate, Density, and Temperature. This reduces the need for multiple devices, lowering installation and maintenance costs.
Rugged ELITE Design: Built to withstand harsh industrial environments. Its robust construction ensures long-term stability and minimal sensitivity to external pipe stresses and vibrations.
Wide Application Range: Suitable for a diverse array of liquids, from clean and light to viscous, non-Newtonian, or slurry-type fluids.
Enhanced Process Insight: The accurate density output can be used to infer concentration (%Brix, % solids), making it ideal for quality control in blending and reaction processes.
