Principle of Functioning
The mass flow controller consists of a flow rate sensor, control valve, control circuit, etc.
If the gas flows, there will be a temperature difference between the upstream and down stream
of the sensor section, providing an output proportional to a mass flow rate.
Comparing this output with an external setting signal, the mass flow controller automatically
adjusts the opening of the valve so that the signal will match.
