Latest model incorporates proven Brooks Coriolis sensor technology for extremely low flows in a very small package.
Hatfield, Pennsylvania (December 12, 2005) — Emerson Process Management today announced the release of the sensor model of its Brooks Instrument QUANTIM® Coriolis family of low-flow products.
Many users are familiar with Coriolis sensor products from Emerson’s Micro Motion brand, and the Brooks QUANTIM QMBS meter extends that functionality to very low flow ranges of between 0.001 kg/hr to 28.0 kg/hr.
This new model (QMBS) is ideally suited for:
- metering small amounts of fluids in batch dosing processes
- systems requiring flow verification
- calibration reference for other flow measurement devices
- flow measurement verification in a metering pump system
- metering fluids in small volume liquid filling systems, among many others uses
QUANTIM’s sensor has the world’s smallest Coriolis footprint on the market, at about half the size of the Brooks QUANTIM model QMBC meter/controller. It allows more flexibility in tight spaces, by giving the customer the option of installing a transmitter in a separate location, as far as 500 feet away. A Brooks QUANTIM QTA transmitter can be selected for this function, or the customer may use an alternate device if preferred. Transmitter digital communications include Modbus (sensor output, no transmitter required), Foundation Field Bus, HART, PROFIBUS PA.
About QUANTIM
QUANTIM is the lowest flow Coriolis meter and controller available on the market today. Users can change liquids or gases without switching meters or recalibrating the device. QUANTIM has no moving parts in the area where process liquids and gases flow, which minimizes maintenance requirements. Minimal physical space is required due to its small, integrated design. Piping and wiring during installation are dramatically simplified since QUANTIM has fully integrated sensor, transmitter, valve, and control electronics.
