E&H 8E5B Coriolis mass flowmeter

E&H 8E5B Coriolis mass flowmeter

Product Overview: Endress+Hauser Proline Promass E 500 (8E5B Series)

The Endress+Hauser Proline Promass E 500, designated by the model series 8E5B, is a remote version Coriolis mass flowmeter featuring a separate transmitter for maximum installation flexibility and operational safety in demanding conditions.This two-piece design consists of a compact dual-tube sensor installed directly in the process line and a transmitter that can be mounted up to significant distances away, connected via standard cables.

The E&H 8E5B Coriolis mass flowmeter represents an economical, multipurpose solution for high-precision liquid and gas measurement across a wide range of standard industrial applications.

What distinguishes the 8E5B is its ability to deliver multivariable measurement—mass flow, density, and temperature—within a single device, effectively reducing the need for multiple process measuring points . The remote configuration proves particularly valuable in high-temperature applications, cramped installations, or areas where transmitter accessibility for configuration and data reading is essential.

The instrument features a remote transmitter supporting up to four inputs/outputs, a backlit display with touch control, and WLAN access for flexible operation . Built-in Heartbeat Technology enables continuous self-diagnostics and on-site verification without process interruption, ensuring compliance and extending recalibration cycles .

With over two decades of experience in industrial instrumentation supply, ST-YUKE CO., LIMITED is proud to offer this high-precision instrument to clients worldwide seeking reliable, cost-effective flow measurement solutions with maximum installation flexibility.
