The Type 8098 flowmeter is part of the FLOWave product range. It is based on SAW

Surface Acoustic Waves) technology and is mainly designed for applications with

the highest hygienic demands. This is achieved by using suitable stainless steel

materials, a measuring tube completely free of any internal parts and an ideal outer

hygienic design.

FLOWave offers a range of integrated functions including the advantages of flexibility,

ease of cleaning, compact dimensions, lightweight, easy installation and

handling, and is compliant with numerous standards.

Optimal measurement results can be achieved with homogeneous liquids, free of

air and solid particles. For liquids with high viscosity, an integrated viscosity compensation

can be activated. Gas and steam cannot be measured; however, their

flow does not have any negative effect on the device or its operation and other

liquids flowing through afterwards are measured correctly as before.

Beside volume flow, a density measurement optional feature is available. With this

option, the mass flow is calculated based on volume flow and density measurements.

Special functions derived from further process values (differentiation factor (DF),

acoustic transmission factor) offer additional information about the particular liquid

in use (for details, see chapter “7.2. Special functions” on page 29).
