Product Description
Thermal Mass Flow Meter 8000MP – 8100MP sensors use two ratiometrically-matched, reference-grade platinum Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs). The platinum sensing element wire is wound on a ceramic base, given a thin protective glass coating, and encapsulated in a 316 Stainless Steel sheath or, if specified, a Hastelloy C sheath. The sensor assembly is large, rugged, and relatively insensitive to dirt buildup. A forced null Wheatstone Bridge preferentially heats one RTD. The second RTD acts as a temperature reference by taking on the temperature of the flowing gas. The resistance ratios are maintained through the Wheatstone Bridge to compensate for the dynamic changes in process temperature. By maintaining a constant temperature difference between the RTDs, Thermal Mass Flow Meter 8000MP – 8100MP can measure the amount of heat dissipated by the flowing gas. As heat is dissipated, more power is used to maintain the constant temperature. The power demand is directly proportional to the gas mass flow rate, allowing our sensors to measure the gas molecular rate of flow without further compensation for outside effects. Thermal Mass Flow Meter 8000MP – 8100MP’s standard flow sensors can respond to flow velocities as low as 15 feet per minute and as high as 45,000 feet per minute for most gases.
