In-line measurement of fluid properties

Conductivity, density, viscosity, concentration, build-up and gas analysis.
Improve your product quality and process stability.
Product quality has several aspects: On the one hand, the product must comply with national and international standards;
on the other hand, it needs to live up to the consumers’ expectations. Our measuring devices support the production
processes with accurate measurements of not only flow quantity, but also of several additional parameters that indicate
product quality and process stability, e.g. conductivity, density, viscosity, concentration, build-up and gas properties.

Conductivity measurement with Proline Promag

Conductivity is a reliable additional measurement
parameter available with our Proline Promag electro-
magnetic flowmeters.
It is relevant for most industries and is used to improve
process efficiency. For example, it allows to monitor CIP
processes and to optimize cleaning cycles and dosage of
detergents. This helps to save time and detergent usage.

Another application example is to optimize intake and

discharge volume of ballast water to reduce vessel fuel
consumption by monitoring the salinity.
Conductivity also serves as an indicator for product qual-
ity by detecting process impurities, e.g. due to leakages,
and thus improves output quality and prevents unexpected
downtime.

Superior density measuring performance with Promass Q

Density is a commonly used parameter in laboratory and
process settings to characterize or identify fluids in many
different applications, such as, water cut in crude oil or
sugar content in syrup. Laboratory analysis of grab samples
is not easy. It is time consuming and does not provide con-
tinuous monitoring of product quality.

Promass Q masters the typical influences in a process en-

vironment like changes in fluid and ambient temperature,
pressure and viscosity while keeping its high-performance
promise.

Promass Q with the Premium Density option achieves an

accuracy of ±0.1 kg/m3 (±0.0001 g/cm3) making it an
outstanding density meter if real-time, in-line density
measurement with the performance quality of a lab device
is required.

Viscosity measurement with Proline Promass I

Viscosity is an important fluid property. It varies with
product composition and correlates with the texture of the
product, which makes it an important parameter, e.g. in
the food industry. In-line measurement of viscosity helps
manufacturers to monitor product quality continuously and
without the time delay of a typical grab sample analysis.

The multivariable Promass I sensor offers several parameters

with one device: flow, density, temperature and viscosity.
This extended process insight enables you to adjust the
process immediately if needed and makes your production
more efficient.

More about Proline Promass I ‣ page 38

Concentration measurement with Teqwave and Promass

Consistent product quality and flavor are crucial for beverage
production. Key measuring values are concentration of
sugar in beverages like soft drinks and fruit juices or
alcohol in distilled beverages.

Correct concentration is also essential in the chemical

industry or in cleaning and disinfection processes, e.g.
to ensure efficient cleaning or to check the rinse water for
cleaning agent residues. Other applications are cleaners
or solutions in surface treatment.

Depending on the application you may favor a density or

speed of sound-based concentration measurement. Promass
offers concentration measurement based on density for
binary liquids with its easy-to-use concentration package.
Teqwave measures the concentration of ternary mixtures
precisely using ultrasound. Additionally, preinstalled data
sets enable plug-and-play measurements.
