Mass Flow Meters

Delivered January 25, 2020. Contributor: Carol L.

Goals

To find mass flow meters that work in nitrogen, air, and helium gas at temperatures up to 800°C to purchase. The meter will be used for research and development.

Early Findings

  • During the initial hour of research, the focus was on finding mass flow meters that complied with the specifications given. While some multi-gas, thermal flow meter options were found, the max temperature available was 400°C and two examples were provided below.
  • The MultiTrak Model 670S allows temperatures of 400°C for air and allows gases that are compatible with 316 L stainless steel.
  • The InnovaMass 240S/241S allows gases, among others and temperatures ranging from -330°F (-200°C) up to 750°F (400°C).
  • Further research is needed to find a multi-gas mass flow meter that allows for temperatures up to 800°C.
