application
Promass U 500 is the ideal single-use flowmeter for
biopharmaceutical applications in the life sciences industry. It
represents the response to the shift from multi-use to single-use
devices and from batch to continuous manufacturing. Offering
multivariable measurement, Promass U 500 provides enhanced
reliability, high accuracy, and industry compliance according to
cGMP. The flowmeter is especially suited for up- and downstream
applications in the monoclonal antibodies (mAb) process.
The sensor comprises a disposable part, available in four line
sizes, and a permanently installed base unit, fitting all line
sizes. Heartbeat Technology automatically recognizes the flow range
and verifies the validity of the factory calibration after
installation. This simplifies commissioning and eliminates the need
for calibration in the field. Equipped with built-in web server,
WLAN, and up to 4 I/Os, the transmitter provides easy operation and
additional process and device information." "Benefits
