Endress+Hauser Proline Promass U 500 Coriolis flowmeter

First single-use flowmeter for biotech applications with premium performance, cGMP compliance, and up to 4 I/Os

Field of application

Promass U 500 is the ideal single-use flowmeter for biopharmaceutical applications in the life sciences industry. It addresses the shift from multi-use to single-use devices and from batch to continuous manufacturing. Offering multivariable measurement, Promass U 500 provides enhanced reliability, high accuracy, and full industry compliance with cGMP. The flowmeter is well-suited for up- and downstream applications in the monoclonal antibodies (mAb) process.

The sensor comprises a disposable part, available in four line sizes, and a permanently installed base unit that fits all line sizes. Heartbeat Technology automatically recognizes the flow range and verifies the factory calibration after installation, simplifying commissioning and eliminating the need for field calibration. Equipped with a built-in web server, WLAN, and up to 4 I/Os, the transmitter enables easy operation and provides additional process and device information.

Benefits

Promass U 500 offers best-in-class measuring accuracy through Coriolis technology with multivariable measurement. It provides the highest turndown ratio, with one sensor fitting all line sizes of disposable.

The flowmeter is fully compliant with cGMP, designed to the latest standards and guidelines, and equipped with required attributes and documentation.

Commissioning is simple and fast, with one-hand mounting and automated calibration data transfer. The sensor’s different mounting angles enable self-drainability or air bubble escape.

Heartbeat Technology eliminates the need for field calibration through automated verification. Digital integration is enabled via modern single pair Ethernet-based communication protocols.
