-
Multivariable Measurement: Simultaneously measures mass flow, density, temperature, volume flow, corrected volume flow (API tables), reference density, and concentration, reducing the need for multiple process measuring points.
-
Space-Saving Installation: The measuring principle requires no inlet or outlet straight pipe runs, enabling flexible installation in tight spaces.
-
Flexible Transmitter with Advanced Connectivity: The compact dual-compartment housing supports up to 3 I/Os, with a backlit display featuring touch control and WLAN access Full access to process and diagnostic information is available via numerous, freely combinable I/Os and fieldbuses (HART, PROFIBUS DP/PA, FOUNDATION Fieldbus, Modbus RS485, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, OPC-UA).
-
Integrated Heartbeat Technology: Built-in verification ensures measurement reliability, enables traceable verification in accordance with ISO 9001:2015 (TÜV SÜD attestation), and allows extension of recalibration cycles without process interruption.

Endress Hauser Proline Promass X 300 Coriolis Flowmeter 8X3B3E 8X3B3F 8X3B3R
The Proline Promass X 300 is a Coriolis mass flowmeter from Endress+Hauser, engineered as the highest-capacity four-tube flowmeter for the most demanding applications in the oil and gas industry. Featuring a compact, easily accessible transmitter, it delivers premium accuracy for large quantities with outstanding performance in onshore, offshore, and subsea operations.
The meter operates on the Coriolis measuring principle, where four measuring tubes oscillate in antiphase and the Coriolis force creates a phase shift proportional to mass flow. This direct measurement is virtually independent of pressure, density, temperature, and viscosity, ensuring robust performance under varying process conditions. The patented four-tube system offers exceptional capacity for high flow rates with low pressure drop, and the complete exterior is made of 1.4435 (316L) stainless steel, providing superior corrosion resistance. The nominal diameter range covers DN 300 to 400 (12 to 16 inches), with measuring capabilities from 0 to 4,100 t/h (0 to 4,520 tn. sh./h).
The device provides multivariable measurement, simultaneously capturing mass flow, density, temperature, volume flow, corrected volume flow (API tables), reference density, and concentration. Standard mass flow accuracy for liquids is ±0.10%, with an optional PremiumCal upgrade to ±0.05%. Gas mass flow accuracy is ±0.35%, and liquid density accuracy is ±0.0005 g/cm³. The measuring principle requires no inlet or outlet straight pipe runs, enabling space-saving installation. Medium temperature range is –50 to +180°C (–58 to +356°F), and maximum process pressure reaches PN 100 or Class 600.
Wetted materials are selected for durability and compatibility. Measuring tubes and process connections are constructed of 1.4404 (316/316L), and the sensor housing is made of 1.4404 (316L) for highest corrosion resistance. The device holds material certificate 3.1 and is compliant with NACE MR0175/MR0103 standards.
The transmitter features a robust dual-compartment housing with up to 3 I/Os, a 4-line backlit display with touch control, and WLAN access for convenient local operation. Transmitter housing options include coated AlSi10Mg and stainless steel 1.4409 (CF3M) similar to 316L. The device is rated IP66/67, Type 4X enclosure. Digital communication options include HART, PROFIBUS DP/PA, FOUNDATION Fieldbus, Modbus RS485, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and OPC-UA. Power supply options include DC 24 V and AC 100 to 230 V.
