Low Pressure Drop Mass Flow Meters and Controllers MLD/MCLD Series - Alicat Scientific
|
The Alicat Scientific’s MLD/MCLD series digital/analog low drop mass flow meters and controllers are designed to meet and exceed the requirements that customers place on mass flow meters while offering minimal input pressure requirements. Simplicity Alicat MLD/MCLD series mass flow meters and controller are designed to be used as stand-alone devices. With the native display, a user can easily change the configuration of the meter or controller without the need for computers, complicated software or scripts. This configurability includes setpoint and PID loop parameters on controllers. Accuracy Alicat MLD/MCLD series mass flow meters and controllers can be configured with an accuracy spec of up to +/-(0.4% of reading + 0.2% of full scale) with a high-accuracy calibration. Standard calibrations are rated at +/-(0.8% of reading + 0.2% of full scale) Reduced Cost of Ownership Alicat MLD/MCLD series flow instruments offer an extremely low pressure drop when compared to similar flow devices. Reduced pressure drop means more process fluids go into your process and not into your measurement devices. MLD/MCLD series mass flow meters and controller are specifically designed for applications wheres system pressure is minimal and introduction of any device can mean the difference between gas flow and a stalled system. Like the standard M and MC lines of mass flow instruments, the MLD/MCLD line also measures pressure, temperature and volumetric flow in addition to mass flow which means fewer instruments you will have to buy and install. Adding a totalizer allows users to see how much media has flowed through the system, making it a great way to monitor usage and identify waste. MLD/MCLD series flow meters and controllers require very little power to run thereby reducing operating costs. Versatility MLD series mass flow meters are available in any flow range from 0.5SCCM through 3000+SLPM and MCLD controllers are available in any flow range from 0.5SCCM through 2000+SLPM. Both are equipped with multiple analog outputs in addition to the RS-232 digital output. MLD series mass flow meters can also be orderd as a MLDB series 9V battery powered flow meter to make a stand alone secondary calibration standard or flow verification meter. Speed With a response time of under 10 milliseconds, Alicat MLD mass flow meters respond more than twice as fast as your eye can blink while Alicat MCLD controllers can make up 1000 changes to valve position in the same blink of an eye. Small Size MLD/MCLD series mass flow meters and controllers utilize a small footprint making them easy to integrate into systems or to use as a stand-alone calibrator. Repeatability Alicat’s patented technology allows its mass flow meters and controllers to have very few moving parts. All of the internal components are fixed in place resulting in very little physical change inside the mass flow instrument. Little physical change in the flow cavity means higher rates of consistency and repeatability. Alicat MLD/MCLD series mass flow meters and controllers have a repeatability of +/-0.2% of FS Dependability There are currently over 60,000 Alicat products in service around the world. Alicat mass flow meters are being used in processes like leak detection, flow monitoring and atmospheric testing. All Alicat Scientific mass flow meter calibrations are NIST traceable.

When using expensive gases or systems with very little total pressure, pressure drop becomes a serious consideration. Alicat MLD series mass flow meters are designed specifically for low pressure drop applications. By using Alicat patented LFE and flow cavity design the MLD is able to deliver excellent performance with as little as 0.1PSID.
