FC 2 m (v ) F = Coriolis force
rm = moved mass
= angular velocity
r
v = radial velocity in the rotating or
oscillating system
The amplitude of the Coriolis force depends on the moving mass ∆m, its velocity in the system,
and thus on the mass flow. Instead of a constant rotating velocity, the Dosimass uses oscillation.
In the sensor, two parallel measuring tubes containing flowing fluid oscillate in antiphase, acting
like a tuning fork. The Coriolis forces produced at the measuring tubes cause a phase shift in the
tube oscillations (see illustration):
• At zero flow, in other words when the fluid is at a standstill, the two tubes oscillate in phase (1).
• Mass flow causes deceleration of the oscillation at the inlet of the tubes (2) and acceleration at
the outlet (3).
F06-xxxxxxxx-15-xx-xx-xx-004
The phase difference (A-B) increases with increasing mass flow. Electrodynamic sensors register
the tube oscillations at the inlet and outlet.
System balance is ensured by the antiphase oscillation of the two measuring tubes. The
measuring principle operates independently of temperature, pressure, viscosity, conductivity and
flow profile.
Density measurement
The measuring tubes are continuously excited at their resonance frequency. A change in the
mass and thus the density of the oscillating system (comprising measuring tubes and fluid) results
in a corresponding, automatic adjustment in the oscillation frequency. Resonance frequency is
thus a function of fluid density. The microprocessor utilises this relationship to obtain a density
signal.
Temperature measurement
The temperature of the measuring tubes is determined in order to calculate the compensation
factor due to temperature effects. This signal corresponds to the process temperature and is also
available as an output.
Measuring system The measuring system is a compact unit consisting of a sensor and transmitter.

• 20...30 °C; 2...4 bar
• Calibration systems traced to national norms.

Calculation example:
Give that: Dosimass DN 15, flow = 1300 kg/h, measured error: ±0.3% ± [(zero point stability /
measured value) x 100]% o.r.

Influence of medium When there is a difference between the temperature for zero point adjustment and the process
temperature temperature, the typical measured error of the Promass sensor is ±0.0003% of the full scale value
/ °C.
Influence of medium The effect of a difference in pressure between the calibration pressure and the process pressure
pressure on the measured error for mass flow is negligible.

Mounting location
Correct measurement is only possible if the pipe is filled. For this reason, avoid the following
mounting locations in the pipe:
• At the highest point of the pipeline. Risk of air accumulating.
• Directly upstream of a free pipe outlet in a down pipe.
F06-8BExxxxx-11-00-00-xx-004
The following proposed installation, however, permits installation in an open down pipe. Pipe
restrictors or the use of an orifice with a cross-section smaller than the nominal diameter prevent
the pipe from running empty during measurement.

Orientation
Vertical:
Recommended orientation with upward direction of flow. When fluid is not flowing, entrained
solids will sink down and gases will rise away from the measuring tube. The measuring tubes can
be completely drained and protected against solids build-up.
1 2 3
F06-8BExxxxx-11-00-00-xx-000
Horizontal:
The measuring tubes of Dosimass must be horizontal and beside each other. When installation is
correct, the transmitter housing is above or below the pipe (View 2, 3). Always avoid having the
transmitter housing in a lateral position.
Caution!
The measuring tubes of Dosimass are slightly curved. The position of the sensor, therefore, has
to be matched to the fluid properties when the sensor is installed horizontally.

F06-8BExxxxx-11-00-00-xx-003
1 Not suitable for fluids with entrained solids. Risk of solids accumulating.
2 Not suitable for outgassing fluids. Risk of air accumulating.
Fluid temperature
Caution!
Hot surface temperatures can arise at the housing of the device if fluid temperatures are >70°C.
In order to ensure that the maximum permissible ambient temperature for the transmitter (-
20...+60 °C) is not exceeded, we recommend the following orientations:
High fluid temperature
Vertical piping: installation in accordance with View 1
Horizontal piping: installation in accordance with View 3
Low fluid temperature
Vertical piping: installation in accordance with View 1
Horizontal piping: installation in accordance with View 2

Inlet and outlet runs There are no installation requirements regarding inlet and outlet runs.
System pressure It is important to ensure that cavitation does not occur because it would influence the oscillation
of the measuring tube. No special measures need to be taken for fluids which have properties
similar to water under normal conditions.
In the case of liquids with a low boiling point (hydrocarbons, solvents, liquefied gases) or in
suction lines, it is important to ensure that pressure does not drop below the vapour pressure and
that the liquid does not start to boil. It is also important to ensure that the gases that occur naturally
in many liquids do not outgas. Such effects can be prevented when system pressure is sufficiently
high.
Consequently, it is generally best to install the sensor:
• downstream from pumps (no danger of vacuum),
• at the lowest point in an ascending pipeline.

Dosimass
Select nominal diameter by optimising between required flow range and permissible pressure
loss. See Page 4, "Measuring range" Section for a list of maximum possible full scale values.
• The minimum recommended full scale value is approx. 1/20 of the maximum full scale value.
• In most applications, 20...50% of the maximum full scale value can be considered ideal.
• Select a lower full scale value for abrasive substances such as fluids with entrained solids (flow
velocity < 1 m/s).
