Micro-machined sensor for mass flow measurement

An Armstrong Optical product story
Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team Apr 20, 2007

Armstrong Optical has introduced the fast response MFlow 200 Mass flow meter ideal for leakage measurements, process and flow controls, calibration and quality control.

The MFlow 200 Mass Flow Meter from Armstrong Optical utilises a miniaturised adaptation of the well-proven anemometric principle.

The micro-machined sensor, manufactured by the Axetris Microsystems Division of Leister Process Technologies of Sarnen in Switzerland, has been designed to offer sensitive and accurate measurement of mass flow with a very fast response time (~2ms).

Coupling a well-established measurement methodology with the benefits of micro-technology has resulted in a sensor that delivers excellent repeatability and reliability, linearity and temperature compensation, high sensitivity and easy to integrate electrical output signals (both analog and digital).

A "starter kit" package is available for evaluation that includes the MFlow 200 Mass Flow Meter, interface module, MFlow View software, all cabling and power supply.

Application areas include leakage measurements, process and flow controls, calibration and quality control.
