CLASSIC Series | TCM 5500 Coriolis Mass Flow Meter
The TRICOR CLASSIC Series TCM 5500 Coriolis Mass Flow Meter has a maximum mass flow rate of 5500 kg/hr (202 lb/min) or 830 bbl/day and nominal size of DN15 (1/2”), and is rated for process pressures up to 345 bar (5000 psi). Standard accuracy for the TCM 5500 is 0.3%, but with a custom calibration, 0.1% accuracy is possible. These meters have good overall accuracy, zero stability, and pressure drop. The simple self-draining U-shape tube design provides for easy cleaning/flushing.
