flox[on] J

Product catalog summary

Overview: The flox[on] S500 is a mass flow controller designed by FCTechnik for gas applications. It features a maximum flow rate of 1650 Nl/min and a minimum flow rate of 2 Nl/min, with a regulation ratio of 1:500 and an accuracy of ±3%.

Specifications:

Maximum Operating Pressure: 16 bar
Operating Temperature: -10°C to +60°C
Materials: Aluminium housing and flange connector, brass valve and sinter filter, NBR sealing gaskets
Electrical: 24 V DC connection voltage, max capacity 30 W, analog connection with ½” BSP thread

Dimensions and Components: The device includes solenoids for large and small flows, proportional valves, inlet and outlet flanges, a micro-processor board, power supply, analog connector, LED operating mode, measuring cell, and filter.

Calibration and Maintenance: Each unit is calibrated with atmospheric air, with correction factors available for other gases. The measuring cell does not require recalibration during its lifetime. The device is maintenance-free but should be installed horizontally to avoid faulty measurements.

Usage and Limitations: The flox[on] S500 is intended for gas use only; liquids or gas condensation can damage the measuring cell. Particulate matter may clog filters, affecting performance. Incorrect wiring can damage electronics.

Connection Assignments: The M12 analog connector and M8 power supply have specific pin assignments for set and real values, digital input, and grounding.

Gas Correction Factors: Correction factors are provided for various gases, including hydrogen (0.7), argon (0.95), nitrogen (1.0), oxygen (1.0), methane (1.1), and carbon dioxide (1.35).

Guarantee and Contact: The product comes with a 2-year guarantee. For calibration and service inquiries, contact FC Technik AG in Winterthur, Switzerland.

There are correction factors for applications using other gases. In individual cases, if desired by the client, the calibration can be made directly with the specific gas intended for use. The measuring cell does not require a recalibration for the rest of its operating life. If a mixed gas such as air or natural gas is used, it should be noted that a change in the composition of the gas can occur...
