Micro Motion
ELITE Coriolis Flow and Density Meter Verification
In-situ
meter verification delivers fast, actionable, simplified performance checks
Micro Motion Meter Verification examines the true structural integrity of the Coriolis flowmeter – from electronics through sensor –
with minimal inconvenience, lower cost, and thorough results you can rely on. Meter verification changes are detected at the press
of a button to verify Coriolis tube structure integrity, flow calibration, electronics and signal processing, in under 5 minutes
and while the sensor remains in the line, with the process flowing.
Exclusive Meter Verification technology delivers results not available elsewhere. Utilize this new tool to avoid costs
and reduce downtime by verifying meters inline, quickly and simply. Actionable, timely meter health information provided with
PlantWeb® alerts identifies potential process issues and enables proactive, planned maintenance.
Overview Comparison of Verification Techniques
Micro Motion Meter Verification
Advantages
Alternative Techniques (such as Damping Trending)
Process Impact on Results
Minimal impact as verification is independent of process conditions, fluid changes or ambient environment
Results highly affected by fluid changes, temperature, viscosity, density, and air entrainment
User Interface
Wide range of options deliver immediate verification results using local
electronics display, remote using Hart, Modbus, Foundation Fieldbus, DeviceNet, ProLink II,
or AMS Device Manager
Trending options are limited and performed using a PC-based method
Detection
Both flow and density calibration verification is detected, including
identification of corrosion, erosion, structured coating or sensor damage
Identification for entrained air or erosion relies on no change in process
fluid since last trend
Measurement Parameters
Verification will alert according to user-defined meter performance specifications for each process
User must analyze data and determine analysis as to what variation is unacceptable
Suitability
Meter verification is suitable for applications where secondary validation effort is performed, proactive maintenance needs tracking and planning, for regulated processes or safety loops, and for general monitoring and diagnostics of process performance
Damping can be used as a variable to detect flow tube change for monitoring de-lamination of flow tube linings (such as Tefzel®)
