Wide flow range with fewer instruments

Alicat Scientific now offers its Mass
Flow Meters and Mass Flow
Controllers with the industry’s
highest turndown ratio – 200:1 – as
standard. With this wide sensitivity
range, OEMs and systems
integrators can achieve cost and
space savings without sacrificing
performance.

Alicat meters and controllers
measure mass flow using differential
pressure and a patented laminar
flow technology, resulting in fast
response with a rugged design. The
turndown ratio of a flow instrument
refers to the ratio of minimum flow
to full scale flow that the unit can
accurately measure. While the
industry standard for this
performance parameter is 100:1 or
less, Alicat’s new 200:1 ratio covers a
wider flow range with fewer pieces
of instrumentation.
