Aggressive Gas Mass Flow Meters and Controllers MS/MCS/MCRS Series - Alicat Scientific
|
Alicat Scientific’s MS/MCS series digital / analog mass flow meter and controllers were designed to meet and exceed the requirements that customers place on mass flow meters and controllers. Sharing nearly all of the same benefits as their M and MC counterparts the MS and MCS instruments offer the following benefits: Simplicity Alicat mass flow meters and controllers are designed to be used as a 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. Accuracy Almost all Alicat 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 an optional high-accuracy calibration. Standard calibrations on all Alicat mass flow meters and controllers are rated at +/-(0.8% of reading + 0.2% of full scale) Reduced Cost of Ownership Alicat mass flow meters and controllers require very little power to run thereby reducing operating costs. They also have less 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. Alicat mass flow instruments also measure 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. The modular design of the MCS controller makes it an excellent choice for vacuum applications. Versatility Alicat mass flow meters are available in any flow range from 0.5SCCM through 3000+SLPM and controllers 0.5SCCM through 2000+SLPM. They are equipped with multiple analog outputs in addition to the RS-232 digital output. The MS series meter can also be orderd as a MBS series 9V battery powered flow meter to make a stand alone secondary calibration standard or flow verification meter. Speed Like it’s M and MC counterparts the MS/MCS series mass flow meters and controllers respond to changes in gas flow in 10ms and can make control adjustments in 50ms. 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 device. Little physical change in the flow cavity means higher rates of consistency and repeatability. Alicat 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.
