Model PFLOW3000 Series MEMS Mass Flow Sensors (VA.0)

MEMS Mass Flow Sensor The PFLOW3000 series of mass flow sensors are made with the micromachined (MEMS) sensing elements that ` offer an innovative thermal sensing principle with excellent linearity and removal of gas sensitivity of some common gases. This PFLOW3000 Series mass flow sensor series offer a fully customizable flow dynamic range of 100:1 with the full-scale flowrate from 2 SLPM to 50 SLPM. The sensors are opted with digital (I2C or RS485) and analog interface, with an operational temperature range of -10 to 55 °C. SPECIFICATIONS Performance characteristics (Test conditions: Vcc...

Figure 5: PFLOW3000 connection and cable GAS CORRECTION FACTORS Gas type Correction factor To obtain the real flow rates in a specific gas, multiply the readings from the sensor by the gas correction factor in the table. The factors are approximate and should be used as guidelines only. Sensor performance strongly depends on gas dynamics and has to be evaluated in the respective application.

DIGITAL RS485 Modbus COMMUNICATION The digital communication protocol is based on standard Modbus RTU Half-plex mode. A master (PC or PLC) can communicate with multiple slaves (the current product) for data exchange and communication parameter configuration. Refer to ELECTRICAL INTERFACE for cable connection. Hardware connection The RS485 hardware layer is TIA/EIA-485-A, as illustrated below. In this configuration, the product (PFLOW3000) is a slave. Communication parameters The PC UART communication parameters are listed in the following table. Parameters Baud rate (Bits per second) Start...

Frame The frame function is based on the standard Modbus RTU framing: Start_bits T1-T2-T3-T4 4 periods bit time, for a new frame. The address can be set from 1 to 247 except for 157 (0x9d). 0 is the broadcast address. Function codes: Define the product's functions/actions (slaves), either execution or response. The address of the register, length of data, and the data themselves. CRC verification code. The low byte is followed by the high byte. For example, a 16-bit CRC is divided into BYTE_H and BYTE_L. In the framing, the BYTE_L will come first, then followed by the BYTE_H. The last one...
