General information
The Flow-Rate Platform enables flow-rate measurements, in a wide range of flow-rates thanks to the five (5)
models: XS, S, M, L and XL.
The flow-rate acquisition is based on a thermal technology. A heating element on the microchip adds a minimal
amount of heat to the medium for the thermal flow measurement. Two temperature sensors, symmetrically
located above and below the source of the heat, detect even the slightest temperature differences, thus
providing the basic information about the spread of the heat, which itself is directly related to the flow-rate.
It is possible to use the Flow-Rate Platform with any flow control systems, from pressure controllers to other
types of flow controllers, provided that the flow-rate applied to a FLOW UNIT does not go beyond its range.
The Flow-Rate Platform enables you to measure the flow-rate and the volume of fluid introduced during your
experiment.
Five (5) different FLOW UNIT models are available. They depend on flow-rate ranges and calibration.
Here is a picture of the five (5) FLOW UNIT models
with different ranges, among which three (3)
models with a dual calibration (S, M and L models).
All the fluidic specifications are diplayed in the
table below .
Note: The Flow-Rate Platform can work at its best performances with FLUIGENT pressure flow control solutions
