Abstract
A Coriolis mass flowmeter with at least one measurement tube (2) for forming a flow channel, at least one vibration generator and at least one vibration pick-up, the measurement tube (2) having one inlet end (4), two vibration sections (3a, 3b) and one outlet end (5) and being bent at least in sections such that two U-shaped or V-shaped vibration sections (3a, 3b) which run in essentially parallel planes are formed, and the vibration sections (3a, 3b) can be excited to vibrations by the vibration generator. The flow channel, except for the inlet end (4), the vibration sections (3a, 3b) and the outlet end (5), runs within a solid base (6).
Claims11
Coriolis mass flowmeter, comprising:
- at least one measurement tube for forming a flow channel, the measurement tube having an inlet end, an outlet end, and two vibration sections, the vibration sections being U-shaped or V-shaped sections which run in essentially parallel planes,
- at least one vibration generator for exciting the vibration sections to vibrate,
- at least one vibration pick-up for detecting vibrations produced by vibration of the vibration sections, and
- a solid base, the flow channel, running within the solid base except for the inlet end, the vibrations sections and the outlet end of the measurement tube.
