1-11. (canceled)
A measurement tube of a Coriolis sensing element for measuring a density or a mass flow of a medium flowing through the measurement tube,
- wherein the measurement tube has a measurement tube wall and a measurement tube lumen, and the measurement tube wall has a sintered ceramic material or is produced from the sintered ceramic material.
A Coriolis measurement tube of a Coriolis meter for measuring a density or a mass flow rate of a medium flowing through a measurement tube, the Coriolis measurement tube comprising:
- the measurement tube having a measurement tube wall and a measurement tube lumen, wherein the measurement tube wall has a sintered ceramic material or is produced from the sintered ceramic material;
- at least one exciter for generating measurement tube vibrations;
- at least two sensors for detecting measurement tube vibrations;
- and
- a supporting element for supporting the measurement tube,
- wherein at least one component of the exciter and/or at least one respective component of the sensor is an integral part of the measurement tube.
A Coriolis meter for measuring a density or a mass flow rate of a medium flowing through a measurement tube, the Coriolis meter comprising:
- a Coriolis measurement tube, including:
- the measurement tube having a measurement tube wall and a measurement tube lumen, wherein the measurement tube wall has a sintered ceramic material or is produced from the sintered ceramic material;
- at least one exciter for generating measurement tube vibrations;
- at least two sensors for detecting measurement tube vibrations;
- and
- a supporting element for supporting the measurement tube,
- wherein at least one component of the exciter and/or at least one respective component of the sensor is an integral part of the measurement tube;
- an electronic measuring/operating circuit configured to operate the exciter and configured to provide measured values of the density and/or mass flow rate on the basis of the measurement tube vibrations detected by the sensors;
- and
- an electronics housing in which the electronic measuring/operating circuit is arranged.
