Micro Motion F-Series Compact, Drainable Coriolis Flow and Density Meters

Introduction

In industries where precision, reliability, and compact design are crucial, Micro Motion F-Series Compact, Drainable Coriolis Flow and Density Meters stand out as a top choice. Built for process optimization and efficiency, these meters combine Coriolis mass flow measurement technology with an innovative, drainable design that ensures accuracy and ease of maintenance.

Whether used in chemical processing, food and beverage, oil and gas, or life sciences, the F-Series Coriolis meters deliver dependable measurement of mass flow, volume flow, density, and temperature—all within a rugged and compact footprint.

What is the Micro Motion F-Series?

The Micro Motion F-Series is a family of Coriolis flow meters engineered by Emerson to deliver high-accuracy measurements in applications where space, cleanability, and durability are critical. Unlike traditional flow measurement devices, Coriolis technology directly measures mass flow rather than inferring it, eliminating inaccuracies caused by changing fluid properties.

The “drainable” design makes them ideal for processes where complete line drainage is required, such as hygienic applications or when working with costly or hazardous fluids.
