6F5B Proline t-mass F 500 thermal mass flowmeter

Field of application

The patented sensor design of t-mass F provides unprecedented measurement stability in thermal inline mass flow measurement. It compensates in real time for changes of process conditions: temperature, pressure, flow direction and gas type. The innovative remote transmitter von t-mass F 500 maximizes installation flexibility and operational safety in demanding environments. Heartbeat Technology ensures measurement reliability and compliant verification.
