The the proprietary Entrained Gas Management (EGM) feature is a significant advancement for this company’s Coriolis flowmeters. This innovation allows for continued operation in two-phase flow conditions, a situation that traditionally causes most Coriolis meters to cease functioning. EGM enables the meter to continue measuring repeatably without process interruption, even when accuracy may be slightly degraded from published specifications. Coriolis flowmeters are highly suitable in various sectors, including chemical processing, food-and-beverage production and oil-and-gas operations. These meters are particularly valuable in mass-based operations, recipe formulation, blending applications and scenarios where ownership changes are transacted. The meters further distinguish themselves in industry with a novel single straight tube design, offering benefits for challenging processes that cannot accommodate bent tube solutions. This design provides several advantages, such as lower pressure drop, easier installation and better handling of shear-sensitive fluids, according to the manufacturer. — Krohne Inc., Beverly, Mass.
