The Promass 83O pairs the high-pressure Promass O sensor with the Proline 83 transmitter for custody transfer and production measurement at pressures up to ASME Class 1500. The perfectly balanced dual-tube 25Cr super duplex sensor needs no pipe supports, braces or long straight runs, and resists corrosive, high-sulfur crude, making it a fit for onshore and offshore production and pipeline service.

How to read the model code
Example: 83O80-J-ADD-F-9-O-1-B-A-A-N (3" Promass 83O). Read the code left to right:
- 83O + 000 (Nominal diameter): 80 = 3" (per the bulletin example); 4" and 6" size codes are listed in SS0M030A1
- 010: Measuring tube material
- 020: Process connection (flange class and material)
- 030: Additional test / certificate
- 040: Mass flow and density calibration
- 050: Hazardous area approval
- 060: Housing (compact or remote)
- 070: Cable entry
- 080: Power supply and display
- 090: Adjustment / software feature (liquid or gas, diagnostics, batching, concentration)
- 100: Output / input combination
