The built-in LCD panel displays real-time data for efficient process monitoring.

Positive

• Advanced measurement capabilities with ±1% accuracy even with high gas content
• Cost-effective design using PFA materials instead of expensive exotic metals
• Multiple measurement capabilities (mass flow, density, temperature) in one device
• Reduced maintenance costs and downtime through improved durability

Negative

• None.

Insights

Tech Expert

The CIFM-88 Series represents a meaningful technological advancement in industrial flow measurement, particularly for corrosive chemical applications. The key innovation lies in its ±1% accuracy even with up to 30% gas void fractions, which is impressive for this class of equipment. The PFA-wetted materials design is a cost-effective alternative to exotic metals traditionally used in corrosive environments.

The multi-parameter measurement capability (mass flow, density and temperature) in a single device offers operational efficiency advantages. However, while this product launch demonstrates Dover's continued innovation in industrial instrumentation, it's likely to have only an incremental impact on revenue given the company's diverse portfolio and $28B market cap. The product primarily serves to maintain competitive positioning in the industrial flow measurement market rather than representing a transformative breakthrough.

DOWNERS GROVE, Ill., Dec. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Malema™, part of PSG and Dover (NYSE: DOV) and a leading provider of flow meter technologies for use in industrial and semiconductor applications, today announced the launch of the new Malema CIFM-88 Series DuraMassFlow™ PFA Coriolis Industrial Flow Meter. The new flow meter is suitable for chemical processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, food and beverage production, paper applications, as well as wastewater treatment.

"The updated Coriolis flow meter embodies Malema's commitment to customer satisfaction, setting a new standard for industrial applications that demand precise control of chemical processes," said Bob Lauson, General Manager for Malema. "The CIFM-88 Series represents an advancement in flow measurement with its innovative design that handles corrosive chemicals while maintaining exceptional accuracy."

The CIFM-88 Series addresses a critical need in the chemical and process industries by providing enhanced accuracy, reliability and durability when handling aggressive chemistries. The new flow meter features a patented design that leverages the Coriolis principle. The CIFM-88 Series helps reduce maintenance costs and minimize downtime, thereby improving efficiency and safety for operators measuring corrosive substances such as acids and alkalis.

The CIFM-88 Series is designed with sensors that simultaneously measure mass flow, density and temperature with an exceptional accuracy of ±1%, even with gas volumetric void fractions up to 30%. Its robust stainless-steel enclosure supports reliable long-term performance in harsh industrial environments while its PFA-wetted materials provide durability against corrosive chemicals, eliminating the need for other Coriolis flow meters constructed of costly exotic metals. Additionally, the CIFM-88 Series' built-in LCD panel offers real-time data on flow rate, totalized flow, temperature and density, enabling operators to monitor and optimize their processes efficiently.
