VIBRATION-TYPE MEASUREMENT SENSOR

摘要

The measurement sensor comprises at least one measuring tube which communicates with a line, which is connected during operation, and is intended to carry a medium to be measured, as well as a carrier element which supports the at least one measuring tube such that it can oscillate. Provision is also made for the carrier element to have at least two through-channels which have been made in the carrier element and via which the at least one measuring tube communicates with the line, and for at least one end of the at least one measuring tube to be fixed to the carrier element, in particular in such a manner that it can be released again, in the region of one of the through-channels using a screwed tube connection. As an alternative or in addition to this, provision is also made for the at least one measuring tube to at least partially comprise strain-hardened, for example cold-drawn or cold-worked, material. If appropriate, the measurement sensor may also comprise at least two measuring tubes which communicate with the line, are intended to carry the medium, and each of which can be connected to a distributor element on the inlet side and to a distributor element on the outlet side. In this case, at least one of the two distributor elements may be in the form of an integral part of the carrier element, with the result that the carrier element can be kept free of joins, in particular free of soldered or welded connections, at least in the region of this at least one distributor element. The measurement sensor according to the invention is, in particular, also intended for those applications in which the medium to be measured acts on the measuring tube with a pressure of more than 500 bar, in particular of more than 700 bar.
