SmartTrak 50 Series Low Flow

Product catalog summary
Overview: The SmartTrak® 50 Series by Sierra Instruments is a digital gas mass flow controller designed for OEMs, offering a balance of cost-effectiveness and high performance. It utilizes advanced sensor technology and a direct-acting control valve to ensure precise gas flow control.
Specifications: The 50 Series features a standard accuracy of +/- 1.0% of full scale and a repeatability of +/- 0.25%. It supports flow rates up to 50 slpm and is compatible with common gases like Air, Ar, CO2, CO, CH4, He, H2, O2, and N2. The device operates within a temperature range of 32°F to 122°F and a pressure range of 5 to 145 psig.
Design and Materials: The flow controller is available in anodized aluminum or 316 stainless steel, with 316L stainless steel sensor tubes and Viton® elastomers. It features a compact design for easy replacement of older models.
Performance Features: The controller boasts a 300 ms response time to setpoint changes and a powerful valve that minimizes leak-by. It includes a local display and digital setpoint control, with optional analog signals and RS-232/RS-485 communication interfaces.
Ordering Information: The 50 Series can be customized with various features such as display options, input power configurations, and output signal types. Certificates for material, conformance, leak, and pressure tests are available, along with O2 cleaning for stainless steel bodies.
Applications: Ideal for applications requiring economical yet precise gas mass flow control, the 50 Series is suitable for use with clean, dry gases in various industrial settings.

Inspired by the need for accurate and reliable gas mass flow control at an OEM price, the 50 Series delivers by building on the same core sensor, LFE and valve technology found in our award-winning SmartTrak 100 Series, all backed by industry best off-the-shelf fast product delivery and Sierra's style of personalized customer support. Our 50 Series has a standard accuracy of +/- 1.0% of full scale. The flexible and powerful direct-acting control valve sets it apart from the competition by minimizing leak-by, while offering a 300 ms response time to setpoint changes at +/- 0.25% repeatability. It is our philosophy that core sensor technology must be of the highest quality and performance to make an excellent MFC. In contrast to the many wetted parts of CMOS and MEMS flow sensors, Sierra uses its most advanced 316L stainless steel platinumwound capillary sensor technology ensuring the very best mass flow control for nearly any clean gas. As a result, the 50 Series shares the same advanced sensor as the flagship SmartTrak 100 Series, while incorporating a slightly varied valve and laminar flow element design also inspired by the original Smart-Trak. A more efficient manufacturing process, a streamlined design, and our partnership with a very strong supplier base combined to make the 50 Series a reality. Experience our passion for flow with the 50 Series in your next application.
