THE INSIDE STORY OF THE F-SERIES: Response Time < 10ms Analog Output = Measured Flow Analog Differential Pressure Sensor for Real Time Measurement Many Connector Options Pressure Compensated Option Available No Lead in Pipe Required Venturi Style Orifice Available in Seven Different Pipe Sizes No Moving Parts Wide range of inert gases Mounts in Any Position Flow Ranges as low as 2-20 SCFH & as high as 25-250 SCFM FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION Proportion-Air’s F-Series is a line of flow transducers designed specifically to provide real time flow measurement of compressed gasses for many demanding...

Flow (Percent ) Proportion-Air’s F-Series product is available in flow ranges from as low as 2 to 20SCFH and as high as 25 to 250S CFM. Pipe sizes range from ¼ “ to 1 ½”. Both NPT and BSP threads are available. The differential pressure technology incorporated in Proportion-Air’s F-Series flow transducer is ideally suited for rugged commercial and industrial applications. This technology allows measurements of flows from 10% to 100% of the maximum calibrated range. The benefits of real time measurement make the F-Series a must in many rapid sequence applications. For example, in the chart...

F-SERIES PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS CHART 1 Port 1/2 Size (inch) Maximum Flow SCFM (Liters/Sec) Port Selection Based on Maximum Flow Output Signal [Volts] This chart shows linear characteristics of the F-Series flow monitor with a signal output of 1-10 volts. Characteristics would be similar for 5. 6-20 mA units. Use CHART 1 to select the appropriate port size based on your applications maximum flow. NON-PRESSURE COMPENSATED This graph illustrates the effect of varying supply pressures on the flow output signal of an FR model flow transducer. This graph can be used to correct for...

F-SERIES TYPICAL APPLICATIONS RADIATOR TESTING Quick Disconnect Automotive Radiator To quickly determine that the flow passages of the radiator are adequately formed, the radiator is connected to a regulated supply and the F-Series provides immediate flow rate. COMPRESSOR TESTING FA-Series To rapidly plot compressor performance curves, a QB1 controls variable pressure while the F-series measures the flow rate BRF-SERIES0105E * PROPORTION-AIR * LET’S TALK 317-335-2602 HP-Backpressure Regulator
