With a wide range of instruments and offering innovative solutions for many different applications in a variety of different markets, Bronkhorst High-Tech is dedicated to customer satisfaction, quality and sustainability. > IN-FLOWCTA series for industrial applications The Mass Flow Meters and Controllers of the IN-FLOWCTA series are of rugged design (IP65) for use in pilot and production plants in industrial environments and hazardous areas (Zone 2). The instruments operate on the principle of direct thermal mass flow measurement (no by-pass) and have no moving parts and no obstructions to the flow path. These features make IN-FLOWCTA Mass Flow Meters ideal for low pressure drop applications and for the use on wet or dirty gases. Another advantage of using this type of sensor is that the instruments measure direct mass flow, without the need of temperature and pressure correction. Mass Flow Meters can be supplied in ranges starting from 10…200 mln/min up to 50…5000 ln/min Air-equivalent. Mass Flow Control loops can be offered, up to 4…200 ln/min Air-equivalent as flow meter with integrated control valve and up to 5000 ln/min with separate control valve. > State of the art digital design The IN-FLOWCTA Mass Flow Meters and Controllers are equipped with a digital pc-board, offering excellent performance and many features, at an affordable price. The main digital pc-board on the instrument contains all of the general functions needed for measurement and control. It has analog I/O-signals and also an RS232 connection as a standard feature. In addition to this there is the possibility of integrating an interface board with DeviceNet™, Profibus-DP®, Modbus-RTU or FLOW-BUS protocol.
