Coriolis Density Meter / Concentration Meter

Direct measurement of density via vibrating tube · Available in bent‑tube / straight‑tube configurations · Long‑term drift‑free operation

Product OverviewProduct Overview

PS7200 Series Coriolis Density Meteris a vibratory instrument developed by Xi’an Pisonics Information Technology Co., Ltd. (PISONICS) for real‑time density / concentration monitoring in industrial processes. The meter measures based on thecorrespondence between the natural frequency of a vibrating tube and the density of the fluidunder the influence of Coriolis force, then—combined with built‑in PT100 temperature compensation—precisely converts the density signal into concentration (or directly displays density in g/cm³ or kg/m³).

This series employs apurely physical, frequency‑based measurement principle, with no mechanical wear and no sensor drift, ensuring excellent long‑term stability; it also offers two structural models to suit different process conditions:

  • PS7210 Triangular Type (Bent‑Tube Model)  Features a balanced dual‑tube vibration structure, highly versatile, ideal for continuous online measurement of most liquids—including petrochemicals, brewing, chemical acids and alkalis, pharmaceuticals, and battery electrolytes—and can be installed with a bypass line or buffer tank.
  • PS7220 Straight‑Tube Model  Adopts a single straight metal tube, with a wide flow path and low clogging risk, particularly well suited for high‑viscosity fluids (up to 20,000 cP) such as slurries, cement pastes, syrups, and vegetable oils, as well as solids‑containing media.

Both models have passed theEx d ⅡB T6 Gb explosion‑proof certification, enabling safe use in flammable and explosive process environments, and provide dual output signals—4–20 mA / RS‑485—for seamless integration with PLC / DCS control systems.

Measurement PrincipleHow It Works

The vibratory density meter leverages thenatural frequency of a spring‑mass systemto measure liquid density. A portion of the measuring tube is driven to vibrate by an electro‑feedback actuation system (the drive sensor), maintaining its inherent resonant frequency. The total mass of the vibrating tube comprises two components: the tube’s own mass (determined at出厂前) plus the mass of the liquid inside. Since the tube’s dimensions and volume are known, thedensity of the liquid corresponds one‑to‑one with the vibrating tube’s frequency.

When the density of the measured medium changes, the total mass of the vibrating tube shifts, causing its resonant frequency to deviate:the higher the density, the lower the frequency; the lower the density, the higher the frequency. The receiving sensor accurately detects this frequency, which the mainboard converts into a density value; meanwhile, the built‑in PT100 temperature sensor compensates for thermal drift, and concentration is calculated from the density‑concentration relationship table, reported at a standard temperature of 20°C.

Figure 1   PS7200 vibrating‑tube density‑measurement principle: the higher the density, the lower the natural vibration frequency; ρ = K · (1/f² − C)

→  Because the measured quantity is “frequency”—a purely physical parameter—there areno electrodes, no moving mechanical parts, and no consumable reagents; the smooth surface of the vibrating tube ensures unimpeded flow, naturally minimizing interference from bubbles and solid particles, thus delivering long‑term stable, high‑precision measurements.

PS7210 Triangular Vibration Density MeterPS7210  Triangular Vibration Density Meter

PS7210 employs a dual‑tube balanced triangular vibration structureconsisting of two symmetrical bent tubes forming an isosceles triangle, with the electromagnetic driver positioned at the center and the transmitter integrated into the housing. As the fluid flows through, the symmetrical design effectively cancels out external vibrational disturbances, retaining only the frequency components correlated with the liquid’s density, thereby yielding a stable density signal.

This model is suited forcontinuous online density measurement in general industrial applications—in systems with unobstructed piping and minimal bubble or particulate interference. It is the preferred choice across sectors such as petrochemicals, chemicals, brewing, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and batteries. Available with DN25 flange and 1.5″ clamp connections; typical dimensions: 250 mm between flanges, overall height 459 mm (clamp) / 475 mm (flange).
