What is the E&H 8S5B Coriolis Mass Flowmeter?

The Promass 8S5B is an ultra-compact, sensor-dedicated Coriolis flowmeter from Endress+Hauser, belonging to the Promass S 500 family. Its defining feature is the hygienic design with a self-drainable single-tube system, specifically optimized for applications requiring the best possible cleaning capabilities in the food and beverage industry. Combined with a remote transmitter featuring up to 4 I/Os, it provides unparalleled installation flexibility and operational safety in demanding environments such as skids, CIP systems, and hygienic processing lines. The measuring principle operates independently of physical fluid properties such as viscosity or density, ensuring accurate measurement unaffected by changing process conditions. It delivers multivariable measurement—capturing mass flow, density, and temperature simultaneously—with Heartbeat Technology for onboard verification and compliance without process interruption.

Key Benefits for Hygienic Applications

The E&H 8S5B Coriolis mass flowmeter offers distinct advantages for food, beverage, and pharmaceutical processing:

Hygienic Design Excellence: Self-drainable single-tube system prevents product accumulation and enables thorough cleaning, meeting 3-A and EHEDG standards. The design is specifically optimized for applications requiring the best possible cleaning capabilities .

CIP/SIP Compatibility: Fast recovery from Clean-in-Place and Sterilize-in-Place cycles minimizes downtime between batches, with the robust sensor design able to withstand repeated thermal cycling -1.

Remote Installation Flexibility: The sensor and transmitter can be mounted in separate locations, allowing the sensor to be placed in tight spaces or high-temperature washdown areas while the transmitter remains easily accessible. The sensor offers IP69 protection for severe washdown environments .

Space-Saving Installation: No inlet or outlet straight run lengths are required, making it ideal for skid-mounted systems and space-constrained installations.

Advanced Connectivity: Up to 4 freely combinable I/Os and multiple digital communication options (PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, Modbus RS485) enable seamless integration into modern plant automation architectures

Reduced Process Measuring Points: Multivariable measurement (flow, density, temperature) eliminates the need for additional instruments in hygienic processes.

Integrated Verification: Heartbeat Technology enables onboard diagnostics and compliance verification without process interruption, supporting FDA validation requirements and reducing maintenance downtime.Hygienic Process Connections

The 8S5B series supports a wide range of hygienic process connections to suit various industry standards:

Tri-Clamp (ISO 2852): Most common for food and beverage applications, easy to disassemble for cleaning

DIN 11851: Dairy standard connection with union nut

SMS 1145: Swedish dairy standard

DRD/Flanges: For aseptic applications requiring flush-mounted diaphragms

Varinline: For space-constrained installations with welded housings

Installation Guidelines for 8S5B Series

To ensure optimal performance of your E&H 8S5B Coriolis mass flowmeter in hygienic applications, consider the following installation recommendations

Remote Transmitter Mounting: The sensor and transmitter are connected via standard cable, allowing flexible mounting locations. The transmitter can be mounted up to 20m away from the sensor depending on cable type.

Sensor Orientation: The direction of the arrow on the sensor nameplate indicates flow direction. The sensor can be installed in any orientation, but vertical installation with upward flow is recommended for self-draining applications requiring full drainability.

High-Pressure Washdown: For applications requiring IP69 protection, ensure proper cable gland selection and sealing for high-temperature, high-pressure washdown environments -4.

Thermal Insulation: For fluids requiring temperature maintenance, insulation materials can be used up to the connection housing. The sensor design accommodates typical insulation thicknesses used in hygienic processing.

Zero Adjustment: All measuring instruments are calibrated under reference conditions. Generally, zero adjustment in the field is not required unless operating conditions significantly deviate from reference conditions.
