In Life Sciences manufacturing, flow measurement is never just about measurement. It’s about protecting product quality, maintaining validation, and ensuring every batch meets exacting regulatory expectations without slowing down operations.
That’s exactly why we continue to expand the Micro Motion™ hygienic Coriolis flow meter portfolio. Our goal isn’t to simply offer another hygienic meter. It is to help pharmaceutical and biotech manufacturers run with confidence through every batch, every cleaning cycle, and every audit, while reducing operational risk and complexity along the way.
Designed for the Realities of Life Sciences Manufacturing
Life Sciences processes demand precision, cleanability, and repeatability—often simultaneously. Whether you’re managing CIP/SIP cycles, producing high‑value biologics, or validating critical batch steps, hygienic flow measurement must perform flawlessly under strict sanitary and regulatory requirements.
Micro Motion hygienic Coriolis flow meters are purpose‑built for sanitary Life Sciences environments, delivering direct mass flow, density, and temperature measurement with no moving parts. That means fewer failure points, more consistent performance, and data you can trust—batch after batch.
From upstream formulation to downstream fill‑finish, our portfolio supports processes where measurement confidence directly impacts product quality and business outcomes.
Batch‑to‑Batch Confidence That Drives Operational Performance
When a batch goes out of spec, the consequences can be significant—lost material, production delays, investigations, and documentation burdens. Accurate, repeatable measurement helps reduce that risk.
Our hygienic Coriolis sensors deliver:
- Liquid mass flow accuracy up to ±0.05% of rate
- Liquid density accuracy up to ±0.2 kg/m³
- Gas mass flow accuracy up to ±0.25% of rate
This level of performance enables tighter process control, improved batch consistency, and faster root‑cause analysis when deviations occur. The result is greater yield, less rework, and more predictable production performance.
Cleanability and Compliance—Engineered In, Not Added On
In validated environments, cleanability and compliance are non‑negotiable. That’s why our hygienic Coriolis sensors are audit‑ready by design, supporting global Life Sciences standards and expectations.
Key design features offered in our portfolio:
- Fully drainable designs in vertical or horizontal installation
- Electropolished wetted surfaces down to 15 Ra (0.38 μm)
- Hygienic process connections including Tri‑Clamp, Neumo, SMS, and more
- Durable, laser‑etched hygienic tagging for washdown environments
Specific meter series are EHEDG certified, ASME® BPE compliant, 3‑A authorized, and TSE/BSE free, helping simplify qualification and reduce validation burden across global sites.
For manufacturers, this means less time defending instrumentation choices during audits and more time focused on production and innovation.
A Portfolio That Fits Your Process
No two hygienic processes are exactly alike. That’s why Micro Motion offers the industry’s most comprehensive hygienic Coriolis sensor portfolio, including G‑Series, T‑Series, H‑Series, and ELITE™ sensors, covering line sizes from DN1 to DN350.
Whether you need:
- An ultracompact solution for skids and OEM‑integrated systems
- A low‑pressure‑drop design for sensitive hygienic processes
- A balanced, all‑around performer for core batch applications
- Or industry‑leading accuracy for the most critical measurements
There’s a Coriolis solution designed to align with your process goals without forcing compromise.
Measurement Confidence That Extends Beyond Installation
True business impact doesn’t stop at installation. Long‑term confidence requires visibility into meter health and performance, especially in regulated environments.
When paired with Micro Motion Coriolis Transmitters such as the 1600, 4700, or 5700, hygienic sensors gain access to advanced diagnostics and Smart Meter Verification. This capability converts diagnostic data into traceable, time‑stamped calibration verification records without removing the meter from service.
For Life Sciences teams, this supports:
- Extended calibration intervals
- Simplified compliance documentation
- Protection against unauthorized configuration changes
In short, it helps maintain validated states while minimizing disruption and manual effort.
Enabling Confident Decisions in High‑Risk Environments
At the end of the day, hygienic flow measurement isn’t just a technical decision—it’s a business one. The right solution helps protect product quality, ensure regulatory compliance, and support confident decision‑making across operations, quality, and engineering teams.
That’s the value we designed into the Micro Motion hygienic Coriolis flow measurement portfolio—not just accuracy, but confidence you can stand behind in every batch review, every audit, and every critical process conversation.
