Product Critical Technical Advantages
-
Remote Transmitter for Enhanced Safety: The transmitter can be located up to 300 meters away from the sensor. This is ideal for hygienic environments where the sensor needs to be in a washdown area (IP69 rated housing) while the electronics and display are safely housed in a control cabinet or non-process zone.
-
Self-Drainable Single-Tube System: The sensor features a unique single-tube design that is inherently self-drainable. This ensures that no product residue is left behind after batch changes or cleaning, providing maximum process safety and preventing cross-contamination in sensitive food applications.
-
Rapid Recovery from Thermal Shocks: Engineered to handle the extreme temperature fluctuations of Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) and Sterilization-in-Place (SIP) cycles, the Promass S 500 recovers its measurement stability almost immediately. This minimizes wait times and keeps production lines running efficiently.
-
Heartbeat Technology for Integrated Verification: This built-in system provides continuous self-diagnostics and documented verification without interrupting the process. Heartbeat Technology ensures that the device remains within specification and provides the necessary documentation for food safety audits and regulatory compliance.
-
Advanced Connectivity and I/O Performance: The Proline 500 transmitter supports up to 4 freely combinable I/Os and modern high-speed industrial protocols. With integrated WLAN and a built-in web server, technicians can perform commissioning and troubleshooting wirelessly via any standard web browser.
-
Multivariable Efficiency and Space Savings: A single device captures mass flow, density, and temperature simultaneously. Because the Coriolis measurement principle requires no straight inlet or outlet piping runs, the Promass S 500 can be integrated into compact, modular process skids with ease.

Field of Application
-
Dairy and Beverage Processing: Precise measurement and transfer of milk, juices, and syrups where daily sterilization and high cleanability are mandatory.
-
Viscous or Sensitive Fluids: The single-tube architecture is perfect for fluids that are shear-sensitive or contain small particles, ensuring gentle handling.
-
Hygienic Skid Construction: The preferred choice for pasteurizers, blenders, and carbonation units where the transmitter must be remote from the wet process area.
-
Flavor and Ingredient Dosing: High-accuracy mass flow measurement for the addition of high-value liquid ingredients under sterile conditions.
