1  General Product Information 

1.1  Introduction 

This user guide covers the X-Flow™ mass flow controllers for gasses as shown in the pictures below. 

Included is product information, installation instructions, operation, maintenance, troubleshooting and 

technical specifications.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

601XF 

 

 

 

1.2  Intended Use 

The intended use of X-Flow™ instruments is to control gas flow rates of the specified gas noted on the 

instrument label. The gas must be clean.  

The instruments can be used for either (fast) switching or controlling a constant flow rate. 

1.3  Symbols
