From the supplier: Several food firms have adopted new microprocessor technology to reduce maintenance and capital investment expenses and to lessen the responsibilities of plant floor operators. Boulder, CO-based Micro Motion's coriolis-effect mass flow meters contain microprocessors which accurately calculate density, mass and temperature, keeping local PLC or single-loop controllers updated about the production process. Mass flowmeter producer Endress + Hauser Inc also observes that the microprocessors enable operators to eradicate signal processing noise through the use of special filters.
