Compact flow meters
20 November 2014
ABB has expanded its CoriolisMaster flowmeter family with the addition of two new compact models with RS485 Modbus communications.

Aimed at OEM machine builders, the FCB and hygienic FCH 130 and 150 series coriolis mass flow meters are suitable for filling applications across a range of industries.
With their integral mount design and zero upstream or downstream piping requirements, the meters can be used in confined locations, requiring a fraction of the space required by volumetric methods.
Featuring a revised inner tube design, the meters are said to offer up to a 90% lower pressure drop than other devices, helping to save up to 25% on pump energy costs. By offering a wide measurement span, just one meter can be used in applications, reducing the need for spares and cutting the costs involved in installation.
The inclusion of RS485Modbus enables the FCB and FCH 130 and 150 to be directly integrated with a range of third party control, supervision and recording devices.
