Abstract: A fluid line system includes a fitting having a lumen extending from first and second flow openings to a third flow opening located in a remote fitting end; first and second fluid lines, each having a lumen; and a flow-conditioner element inserted into the lumen of the fitting and non-detachably connected thereto and has first and second flow channels connected fluidically in parallel. Each of the two flow channels of the flow-conditioner element extends from a first flow opening located in a region of its element end to a second flow opening located in a region of its opposite element end, and the flow-conditioner element is positioned and oriented in the fitting such that a first flow path includes both the first flow channel and the first fluid line, and a second flow path includes both the second flow channel and the second fluid line.

Abstract: A vibronic sensor for measuring mass flow rate, includes a measurement pipe, an excitation magnet and a sensor magnet, an excitation coil and a sensor coils, each having an elongated basic shape. The basic shape has a center of gravity through which a largest diameter having a length d1 and a smallest diameter having a length d2 extend, wherein the excitation coil or the sensor coil has a first coil axis and a second coil axis in a cross-sectional plane. The largest diameter d is in the first coil axis, wherein the smallest diameter d2 is in the second coil axis. For a quotient d1/d2, the following applies: 1.15≤d1/d2, where, when the measurement pipe vibrates in an in-plane mode, a deflection direction of the measurement pipe is oriented in parallel with the first coil axis in a region of the excitation magnet or the sensor magnet.

Abstract: The invention relates to a Coriolis measuring sensor for detecting a mass flow rate or a density of a medium flowing through a measurement tube of the Coriolis measuring instrument. The measurement tube has an inlet and an outlet designed to convey the medium between the inlet and the outlet; an exciter; and two sensors; the measuring sensor comprising a supporting element having a chamber designed to house the measurement tube at least in portions. The magnet device comprises a magnetically conductive holder for magnets and a first pair of magnets arranged on the holder on a first face of the coil device, with the magnets designed to cause a magnetic field perpendicularly to a cross-sectional plane of the coil, and the magnetic field of a first magnet of the pair is oriented so as to be opposite to the magnetic field of a second magnet of the pair.
