Introduction
1.1
Scope of this manual
This manual contains general product information, installation and operating instructions and troubleshooting tips for the
mini CORI-FLOW™ M1x
series mass flow meters and controllers for liquids and gases.
1.2
Intended use
The Bronkhorst®
mini CORI-FLOW™ M1x
is an accurate mass-flow meter/controller for measuring and controlling gas and
liquid flows at pressures up to 200 bar(a), virtually independent of pressure and temperature changes. A wide range of
liquids and gases can be measured independent of fluid density, temperature and viscosity.
The wetted materials incorporated in the mini CORI-FLOW™ M1x are compatible with media and conditions (e.g.
pressure, temperature) as specified at ordering time. If you are planning to use the product (including any third party
components supplied by Bronkhorst, such as pumps or valves) with other media and/or other conditions, always check the
wetted materials (including seals) for compatibility. See the technical specifications of the product and consult third party
documentation (if applicable) to check the incorporated materials.
Responsibility for the use of the equipment with regard to its intended use, suitability for the intended application, cleaning
and compatibility of process media with the applied materials lies solely with the end user.
Where appropriate, this document recommends or prescribes safety measures to be taken with respect to media usage or
working with the described equipment under the specified conditions. The end user is responsible for taking the necessary
safety precautions and proper use of appropriate (personal) protective equipment, even if such is not explicitly
recommended or required in this document.
The end user is considered to be familiar with the necessary safety precautions, and to comply with the appropriate
protective measures as described in the Material Safety Data Sheets of the media to be used in the system (if applicable).
Bronkhorst High-Tech B.V. cannot be held liable for any damage and/or injury resulting from unintended, improper or
unsafe use, or use with other media and/or under other process conditions than specified at ordering time.

Product description
mini CORI-FLOW™ M1x
instruments are precise and compact mass flow meters and controllers for liquids and gases, based
on the Coriolis measuring principle. Designed to cover the needs of the low flow market, there are 4 models, supporting
flow ranges from 5 g/h up to 300 kg/h (full scale values), each offering multi-range functionality: factory calibrated
measuring ranges can be re-scaled by the user, without affecting the original accuracy specifications. The instruments are
built into a robust, weatherproof housing, with a high ingress protection rating.
The
mini CORI-FLOW
measures real mass flow, regardless of the media properties. The system can be complemented with a
(modular or integrated) control valve or a pump and a readout and control unit to measure and control gas and liquid
flows.
