GE RHM 160 User manual

RHM 160
The RHM 160 can measure ow rates up to 1800 t/h
(66,140 lb/min) with pressures up to 50 bar. This large
sized model is optimal for loading and unloading
applications - manufactured by GE’s Rheonik mass
owmeter experts.
Applications
• Loading of boats, vessels, rail tank wagons
• Oil exploration
• Highly viscous media (low pressure drop and
excellent performance at low ow conditions)
Features
• Suitable for pressure up to 50 bar
• Flow uncertainty down to 0.15%
• Density uncertainty down to 0.5%
• Repeatability better than 0.05%
• Unique torsion oscillator
• Typical measuring ranges from 750 to
30000 kg/min
• Minimal ows as low as 600 kg/min
Coriolis Mass Flowmeter for
Very High Flow Applications
Advantages
• High ow rates for fast lling
• Torsion oscillator design assures most stable and
basically drift free measurement and increased
signal to noise ratio
• Not sensitive to changes in pressure
• Longest life time and increased safety (low stress
in welds and increased wall thickness against
abrasion)
• No moving parts, practically no maintenance

• Uncertainty of reading (incl. zero drift) indications
refer to reference conditions H2O, 18-24°C (66 - 76°F),
1 - 3 bar (15 – 45 psi) and installation according to
eld manual.
• Calibration at factory only up to 11,000 kg/min.
• Pressure drop indications refer to H2O, with
measuring loops type P1.
• For calibration to customer range and / or with
improved uncertainty, please consult your local
