E&H 8KBB Coriolis mass flowmeter

E&H 8KBB Coriolis mass flowmeter

Product Overview

The E&H 8KBB Coriolis mass flowmeter (Proline Promass K 10) represents Endress+Hauser’s cost-efficient solution for elementary mass flow measuring tasks. Designed for basic applications involving air, gas, fuel, and water, this instrument delivers dependable measurement with the quality and reliability expected from a leading instrumentation manufacturer

As a compact dual-tube sensor, the 8KBB Coriolis mass flowmeter operates independently of physical fluid properties such as viscosity or density, making it exceptionally versatile across diverse industrial processes. The measuring principle provides simultaneous multivariable measurement of mass flow, density, and temperature, reducing the need for multiple instruments at a single measuring point

Key Technical Specifications

The E&H 8KBB offers the following performance characteristics:

Detailed Technical Analysis

Measurement Performance

The 8KBB Coriolis mass flowmeter delivers exceptional accuracy for basic application requirements. Users can select between standard ±0.5% accuracy or an optional ±0.15% accuracy for liquid mass flow measurement, providing flexibility based on process demands For gas applications, the instrument maintains ±0.75% accuracy, ensuring reliable performance across different media types.

The measuring range extends to 180,000 kg/h, accommodating a wide spectrum of flow rates from small-scale processes to larger industrial operations  The full-scale value for gases depends on density and sound velocity, with calculations available through Endress+Hauser’s technical documentation.

Physical Specifications

Temperature and Pressure Capabilities
The Promass K 10 operates reliably across a broad temperature spectrum from –40°C to +150°C (–40°F to +302°F), suitable for both cold climate installations and heated process applications  Process pressure ratings reach up to 100 bar (1450 psi), though specific pressure limits vary by connection type and nominal diameter.

Materials of Construction
Endress+Hauser employs high-grade stainless steel for all wetted components. The measuring tubes utilize 1.4539 (904L) stainless steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance. Process connections feature 1.4404 (316/316L) stainless steel, ensuring compatibility with standard industrial piping systems -2.
