ACU10FC Series

The ACU10FC differential-pressure mass flow controller employs a differential-pressure-based mass‑flow measurement principle that exhibits no thermal drift and zero response lag, enabling simultaneous display and output of instantaneous flow, cumulative flow, pressure, temperature, and other parameters. When control functionality is required, it can be equipped with a solenoid‑proportional control valve and built‑in PID regulation. Unlike thermal mass flow meters, the ACU10FC incurs no additional “specific heat” error when gas conversion factors are applied. Consequently, even if the measured gas differs from the calibration gas used at the factory, measurement accuracy remains unaffected.

◆ No thermal drift; negligible temperature and time drift; long-term stability of 0.1% F.S./year.

◆ Accuracy of 1.0%; the measurement range can be set via keypad within a 100:1 span, with no calibration required.

◆ Simultaneous display of instantaneous and cumulative flow, pressure, and temperature

◆ No warm-up required; no response lag during measurement.

◆ Built-in with 30 gas conversion coefficients; negligible additional error in specific heat capacity, with no impact on accuracy.

The ACU10FC differential-pressure mass flow controller employs a differential-pressure-based mass‑flow measurement principle that exhibits no thermal drift and no response lag, enabling simultaneous display and output of instantaneous flow, cumulative flow, pressure, temperature, and other parameters. When control functionality is required, it can be equipped with an electromagnetic proportional control valve and built-in PID regulation. Unlike thermal mass flow meters, the ACU10FC differential-pressure mass flow controller incurs no additional “specific heat” error when gas conversion factors are applied. Consequently, even if the measured gas differs from the calibration gas used at the factory, measurement accuracy remains unaffected.

The ACU10FC series differential-pressure mass flow controllers are widely used across various industries, including process manufacturing, food analysis, and analytical testing and metrology. Their multi-variable measurement capabilities and 50:1 adjustable turndown ratio enable a single ACU10FC unit to replace the functionality of multiple devices. With 1% accuracy, 1% repeatability, and a control response time of less than 200 milliseconds, they ensure reliable operation of process gases.
