Description
MC2 DN 50 to DN 150 (2" to 6") and MC2 Hygienic (EHEDG certified) from DN 20 to DN 80
(¾" to 3") are suitable for accurate mass flow measurement of a variety of liquids and gases.
The sensors offer superior performance in terms of mass flow accuracy, density accuracy,
and turn-down ratio. The very compact sensor construction makes installation and
commissioning of even the largest sizes very straight forward and easy.
The sensor delivers true multi parameter measurements i.e.: Mass flow, volume flow,
density, fraction flow, Brix/Plato, and temperature.

Design
The MC2 sensor consists of 2 parallel measuring pipes, welded directly onto a flow splitter at
each end to eliminate a direct coupling to the process connectors and significantly reduce
effects from external vibrations.
The flow-splitters are welded directly onto a rigid sensor housing which acts as a mechanical
low pass filter.

The wetted parts of the MC2 standard are available in two material configurations, W 1.4571
/ AISI 316Ti or Hastelloy C4 with a wide variety of process connections, while MC2 Hygienic
is available in W 1.4435. The enclosure is made of stainless steel W 1.4301 / AISI 304 with a
grade of encapsulation of IP67/NEMA 4.
