Product catalog summary
Introduction
MASS-STREAM mass flow meters (MFM) for gases utilize the thermal through-flow measurement principle, offering a design that minimizes sensitivity to moisture and particulates. These instruments are suitable for various industries, including food, chemical, petrochemical, fermentation, and biotechnology, with models covering a measurement range from 0.5 to 1000 ln/min Air equivalent.
Measurement and Control System
Accuracy is ±1.0% Rd plus ±0.5% FS, with a turndown ratio of 1:100. The repeatability is less than ±0.2% FS, and the operating pressure ranges from 0 to 10 bar(g). The response time is approximately 0.9 seconds, and the temperature range is 0 to 50°C. The instruments have a warm-up time of 30 minutes for optimum accuracy.
Mechanical Parts
The sensor is made of stainless steel 316L, and the instrument body is aluminum EN AW-6082-T6. Process connections are available in G ¼” and G ½” BSPP female threads, with optional compression fittings. The housing has an ingress protection rating of IP65.
Models and Specifications
Four models (MS-105, MS-106, MS-108, MS-109) are available, each with specific flow capacities and connection types. They support analog output (4…20 mA) and digital communication (RS232).
On-board FLUIDAT® Gas Database
The on-board gas database allows for easy switching between gases without recalibration, using factory calibration with Air as standard. It provides real-time corrections based on process temperature and ensures accurate conversion with minimal uncertainty.
Flow Profile and Sensitivity
The instruments are designed for a consistent flow profile, and proper inlet piping is recommended to maintain accuracy. Repeatability remains unaffected by flow profile variations.
Features
The MASS-STREAM meters offer direct inline measurement, excellent repeatability, good response times, and a robust IP65 design. They feature a modern multi-colored TFT display with customizable options and are compatible with Bronkhorst FlowSuite software.
Warranty
All instruments and accessories come with a 3-year warranty from the delivery date.

MASS-STREAM Models-1

MASS-STREAM mass flow meters (MFM) for gases are based on the thermal through-flow measurement principle. Their field-proven design has been exclusively used by Bronkhorst Instruments in Germany since 1997. Unlike thermal bypass flow meters, all gas flows through a straight channel, making MASS-STREAM instruments less sensitive to moisture or particulates and easier to clean. Mass Flow ONLINE has selected four models for their online sales channel, covering a wide measurement range, from 0,5 to 50 up to 10 to 1000 ln/min Air equivalent. Each MFM is equipped with an on-board display for indicating actual flow, totalized flow, and alarms. These instruments find applications in many industries, such as process gas measurement in the food industry, chemical and petrochemical industries, fermentation installations, and biotechnology.

> On-board FLUIDAT® gas database Simply select your process gas. With the on-board gas database, switching to another gas or gas mixture is effortless and does not require recalibration. MASS-STREAM mass flow meters come factory calibrated with Air as the standard. If other gases or gas mixtures are used, the on-board gas database (FLUIDAT Onboard) applies the necessary conversion. The conversion depends on the physical properties of the gas and the process parameters, such as media temperature and operating pressure. The highly accurate FLUIDAT gas database ensures best-in-class conversion from...
