8710 Mass Flow Controller

Brand: Burkert Fluid Control Systems

Type 8710 controls the mass flow of gases through a sensor element which is not in direct contact with the gas itself. 

The measured value provided by the sensor will be compared in the digital control electronics with the predefined set point according to the signal; if a control difference is present, the control value output to the proportional valve will be modified using a PI control algorithm. 

In this way, the mass flow can be maintained at a fixed value or a predefined profile can be followed, regardless of pressure variations or other changes in the system. The control element, a proportional valve working at low friction, guarantees a high sensitivity and a excellent control characteristics of the unit. 

The Mass Flow Communicator software can be used for parameterization and diagnosis.
