Introduction
1.1
Scope of this manual
This manual contains general product information, installation and operating instructions and troubleshooting tips for the
MI Series Industrial mini CORI-FLOW™
mass flow meters and controllers for liquids and gases.
1.2
Intended use
The
mini CORI-FLOW™
is designed to measure and/or control mass flow rates of gases and liquids in a fluid system at
conditions as specified at ordering time and as stated on the serial number label.
The instrument is built into a robust, weatherproof housing, making it especially suitable for operation in a wide range of
industrial (including hazardous) environments.
The wetted materials incorporated in the mini CORI-FLOW™ 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 suitability, intended use, cleaning and corrosion resistance of the
applied materials against the processed media 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 resulting from improper or unsafe use, use for other than
the intended purpose or use with other media and/or under other conditions than specified on the purchase order.

Product description
The Bronkhorst®
MI Series Industrial mini CORI-FLOW™
is an accurate mass flow meter and controller for measuring gas and
liquid flows, virtually independent of pressure and temperature changes. It can be operated analog, via RS232 or HART, or
via an optional fieldbus interface (FLOW-BUS, Modbus (RTU/ASCII), PROFIBUS DP, EtherCAT® and PROFINET). For RS232 and
FLOW-BUS communication, Bronkhorst offers free tooling software (e.g. FlowPlot).
