Abstract
A Coriolis mass flowmeter with at least one measurement tube (2) for forming a flow channel, at least one vibration generator and at least one vibration pick-up, the measurement tube (2) having one inlet end (4), two vibration sections (3a, 3b) and one outlet end (5) and being bent at least in sections such that two U-shaped or V-shaped vibration sections (3a, 3b) which run in essentially parallel planes are formed, and the vibration sections (3a, 3b) can be excited to vibrations by the vibration generator. The flow channel, except for the inlet end (4), the vibration sections (3a, 3b) and the outlet end (5), runs within a solid base (6).
