Abstract

A measuring transducer comprises a transducer housing, of which an inlet-side housing end is formed by means of an inlet-side flow divider having eight, mutually spaced flow openings and an outlet-side housing end is formed by means of an outlet-side flow divider having eight, mutually spaced flow openings as well as a tube arrangement with eight bent measuring tubes for the conveying flowing medium, which, forming flow paths connected for parallel flow, are connected to the flow dividers, wherein each of the eight measuring tubes in each case opens with an inlet-side measuring tube end into one of the flow openings of the flow divider, and in each case opens with an outlet-side measuring tube end into one of the flow openings of the flow divider. An electro-mechanical exciter mechanism of the measuring transducer serves for producing and/or maintaining mechanical oscillations of the measuring tubes.
