Flowmeter meets demanding hygiene standards
The hygienic design of Promass P allows it to drain completely so that no fluids get trapped inside, making it ideal for use in skid-mount applications.
Promass I measures the viscosity of both Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids.
This patented approach allows direct inline measurement of the apparent viscosity of a liquid - an ideal way to gauge product quality.
It is particularly important in applications where product thickness relates to product quality, for example in tomato sauce production.
The additional viscosity measurement function in Promass I is also ideal for improving process control and efficiency.
Monitoring viscosity trends is an additional way to detect product change and provides early warning of any potential failures in the process.
The viscosity function can also be used to protect machinery.
Promass I reduces unscheduled downtime, as the product can be continuously monitored for excessive "thickness" thus preventing severe buildup on the machinery. Request a free brochure from Endress + Hauser ...
