of

 

the

 

MF5700

 

series

 

of

 

gas

 

mass

 

flow

 

meters

 

general

purpose

 

gas

 

metrology

 

applications.

The

 

MF5700

 

mass

 

flow

 

meter

 

is

 

one

 

of

 

the

 

best

selling

 

mass

 

flow

 

meter

 

products

 

on

 

market,

 

due

 

to

 

its

 

performance

 

and

 

cost

effective

 

design

 

enabled

 

with

 

the

 

company’s

 

proprietary

 

MEMS

 

(micro

electro

mechanical

 

systems)

 

thermal

 

sensing

 

technology.

  

The

 

current

 

model

 

is

 

the

 

3

rd

 

generation

 

of

 

the

 

 

products

 

 

having

 

 

significantly

 

 

upgraded

 

 

features

release

 

 

in

 

 

2010.

   

 

The

 

 

upgrade

 

 

includes

 

 

much

improved

 

 

accuracy,

 

 

an

 

 

additional

 

 

model

 

 

to

 

 

cover

 

 

flow

 

 

range

 

 

and

 

 

channel

 

 

size

 

compatibility;

 

significantly

 

extended

 

measurement

 

dynamic

 

range,

 

wireless

 

data

 

options,

 

and

 

valve

 

options.

 

 

The

 

 

upgrade

 

 

also

 

 

ensures

 

 

back
