    Series 500 & 540


    Thermal Technology
    EPI’s thermal mass flow meters are solid state instruments that use the principle of convective heat transfer to directly
    meausre gas mass flow. EPI’s sensors consist of two matched reference grade resistance temperature detectors (RTD’s).
    A microcontroller preferentially heats one sensor; the other sensor acts as a control temperature reference. The gas flow
    dissipates heat from the heated sensor, in Constant Temperature Anemometer (CTA) mode for dry-gas operation. This heat
    dissipation is directly related to the gas molecular rate of flow. Our sensors are temperature compensated and insenstive to
    pressure changes for direct output readings, so no additional instrumentation or calculations are required. The output signal
    is a true mass flow rate signal which can be directly interfaced with your data acquisition system.
