SLAMF Elastomer Sealed Mass Flow Controllers & Meters
Precision mass flow control. Hardened for the harshest environments
Whether it’s dust, moisture, temperature extremes or wash-down requirements, the SLAMf Series elastomer sealed thermal mass flow controllers and meters deliver the precise accuracy and long-term stability of our proven SLA5800 family of meters and controllers. A specially engineered IP66 enclosure protects our advanced digital electronics and ensures stable, accurate measurement and control of your process-critical gas mass flows.
Features
- ISO/IEC 17025 accredited
- SLA Series Biotech MFC offers two options packages with features created specifically to improve bioprocessing performance. See which package is right for your process.
- IP66 rated hardened enclosure
- Wide range of full scale flows - from 0.003 up to 2500 lpm (9000 lpm for meters)
- Suitable for a broad range of temperature and pressure conditions
- Industry-leading thermal flow measurement sensor technology delivers excellent accuracy
- Broad array of available communication options now includes EtherNetIP™ and PROFINET which feature a web-based interface that lets you easily configure network settings.
- Programmable multi-gas/multi-range capabilities
- Advanced self-test routines and an independent diagnostic service port lets users troubleshoot or change flow conditions without removing the MFC from service
Applications
- Life sciences
- Chemical and petrochemical pilot plants
- Blanketing in food processing
Benefits
- Hardened device housing ensures process accuracy and control in harsh conditions
- Proprietary thermal sensing technology delivers superior signal to noise ratio at low set points
- Long-term sensor stability reduces maintenance and periodic recalibration requirements
- Choose one device, program up to six different gas calibrations
- Enhanced valve shut-off, wide turndown, certifications and approvals (USP Class VI/ADI-free) for all elastomeric material in the gas stream (wetted path), including valve seats and o-rings, are available with the SLA Series Biotech MFC
- User-accessible service port simplifies installation, troubleshooting and diagnostic tasks
- Excellent accuracy backed by superior metrology systems and calibration based on global standards
- EtherNet/IP™ and PROFINET permits multiple, additional diagnostics beyond those provided by the mass flow controller alone, giving users rich, real-time system information
- ISO/IEC 17025 certification and calibration available with flow accuracy of ±0.6% of SP
- Traceable calibrations to meet industry standards and regulatory requirements
