The Whisper Series features extraordinarily low pressure drops, as low as 3.6 mbar (0.052 psi) at full scale, or 0.018 mbar when fully turned down (200:1 turndown). Low pressure drop means minimal system impact, resulting in faster mass flow measurement (<10 ms). Therefore, these flow meters are optimally suited for most flow measurements used in our lab, thus replacing the Gilibrator, or Drycal.
Things to remember when using these flow meters:
1) Do not over pressurize them (max = 50 PSIG).
2) Make sure the correct gas is selected for your measurements (Menu-> Gas Select).
3) Make sure to select your desired output, either LPM or SLPM.
4) Make sure to Tare the meter prior to measuring your flow.
