SCOPE OF THIS GUIDE

mini CORI-FLOW™ 

instruments are highly accurate instruments for measuring and controlling the mass flow rate of liquids and/or

gases, independent of fluid properties. These smart Coriolis instruments offer multiple process values as input- or output
parameters. Many parameters can be read and/or changed using analog or digital interfaces. Output parameters are: mass flow,
density, temperature, totalized mass flow, alarms. Input parameters are: setpoint (desired mass flow rate for controllers), reset
alarm/counter.

This manual will help you start-up your

Notes for temperature considerations

   

After having used the 

mini CORI-FLOW™ ML120

 the first time at low temperature tighten the fluid adapter screws again in

order to prevent any leakage! Please note: if you do not tighten, the leaking adapter / fitting can cause damage! After the
first shrinking and tightening of the screws, no further precaution is necessary.

   

Note:

 The maximum allowed temperature in the housing of the 

mini CORI-FLOW™ ML120

 is 70 °C. To check this, the

internal temperature sensor can be used. Temperature can be readout digitally via FLOW-DDE/E-8000 (FlowDDE par. 142) or
BRIGHT (local readout/control module). Make sure the temperature value readout here (=actual temperature in housing)
will not exceed 70 °C.

STARTING-UP

Check mini CORI-FLOW™ ML120 functional properties

Before installing your Mass Flow Meter/Controller it is important to 
read the attached label and check:

·

Flow rate

·

Fluid to be measured

·

Up- and downstream pressures

·

Input/output signal

·

Temperature

·

Valve type 

(if controller)
