Option: FM approval Class I, Div. 2 (Groups A, B, C, D; T4)
Option: KCs certificate (Protection Ex nA IIC T4)
No moving parts
Best in class mean-time-between-failure (MTBF) data based on the IEC 61508 standard
Compact and competitive Mass Flow Meters for high gas flow rates
For consumption measurement of high gas flow rates, customers often select volumetric flow meters e.g. Vortex flow meters, turbine flow meters or instruments based on the measurement of differential pressure. To read mass flow, all these measurement principles require temperature and pressure compensation. Bronkhorst Series F-106 / F-107 directly measure high mass flow rates of gases up to a pipe size of 10 inch / DN 250. Furthermore their digital pc-board offers counter and alarm functions as a standard feature, as well as the option to integrate an on-board interface board for CANopen®, DeviceNet™, EtherCAT®, PROFIBUS DP, PROFINET, Modbus RTU, ASCII or TCP/IP, EtherNet/IP, POWERLINK or FLOW-BUS communication.
Applications
IN-FLOW Series Thermal Mass Flow Meters and Controllers for high flow rates are applied for:
Process gas measurement and control in food industry, chemical and petrochemical industries, in fermentation installations and in biotechnology
Gas consumption measurement for internal accounting
Hydrogen techniques
