GFM - 1

MASS FLOW METERS Design Features Rigid metallic construction. Maximum pressure of 1000 psig (70 bars). Leak integrity 1 x 10-9 of helium. NIST traceable certification. Built-in tiltable LCD readout. 0-5 Vdc and 4-20 mA signals. Circuit protection. Can be used as a portable device. Engineering units or 0 to 100% displays. TIO Totalizer option. Metered gases are divided into two laminar flow paths, one through the primary flow conduit, and the other through a capillary sensor tube. Both flow conduits are designed to ensure laminar flows and therefore the ratio of their flow rates is constant. Typical Aluminum GFM Mass Flow Meter A Wheatstone bridge design is used to monitor the temperature dependent resistance gradient on the sensor windings which is linearly proportional to the instantaneous rate of flow. Two precision temperature sensing windings on the sensor tube are heated, and when flow takes place, gas carries heat from the upstream to the downstream windings. The resultant temperature differential is proportional to the change in resistance of the sensor windings. Output signals of 0 to 5Vdc and 4 to 20mA are generated indicating mass molecular based flow rates of the metered gas. Flow rates are unaffected by temperature and pressure variations within stated limitations. General Description Compact, self-contained GFM mass flow meters are designed to read flow rates of gases. The rugged design coupled with instrumentation grade accuracy provides versatile and economical means of flow measurement. Aluminum or stainless steel models with readout options of either engineering units (standard) or 0 to 100 percent displays are available. NIST Traceable Calibration The mechanical layout of the design includes an LCD readout built into the top of the transducer. This readout module is tiltable over 90 degrees to provide optimal reading comfort. It is connected to the transducer by a standard modular plug, and is also readily removable for remote reading installations. www.aalborg.com - e-mail ౧ info@aalborg.com - ( 845.770.3000 - fax 845.770.3010 - Toll Free in U.S.A. and Canada 1.800.866.3837 10
