The invention relates to a vibration sensor and an in-line measuring device comprising said sensor. The sensor serves to detect at least one physical measurable variable of a flowable medium guided in a tube conduit and/or for producing Coriolis forces which serve to detect the mass flow rate of a flowable medium guided in a tube conduit. The sensor comprises a sensor housing (71), a housing end on the inlet side being defined by a splitter (201) on the inlet side which has exactly four respective interspaced flow openings (201A, 201B, 201C, 201D) and a housing end on the outlet side being defined by a splitter (202) on the outlet side which has exactly four respective interspaced flow openings (202A, 202B, 202C, 202D), and exactly four straight measuring tubes (181, 182, 183, 184) for guiding the flowing medium which tubes are connected to the splitters (201, 202) to give fluidically parallel flow paths. The respective measuring tube end on the inlet side of each of the four measuring tubes leads to one of the flow openings (201A, 201B, 201C, 201D) of the splitter (201) on the inlet side and the respective measuring tube end on the outlet side leads to one of the flow openings (202A, 202B, 202C, 202D) of the splitter (202) on the outlet side. The sensor further comprises an electro-mechanical exciter arrangement (5) for producing and/or maintaining mechanical vibrations of the four measuring tubes (181, 182, 183, 184), the exciter arrangement being designed such that it can be used to excite the paired measuring tubes to perform respective counter-phase flexural vibrations in a respective common imaginary plane of vibration (XZ1, XZ2). The sensor according to the invention is especially suitable for measuring a density and/or a mass flow rate of a medium which flows at least temporarily inside a tube conduit at a mass flow rate of more than 2200 t/h.
