AlicatWhisperFlowMeter
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.
We now have two of these flow meters: 1 that has a maximum flow of 10 SLPM [named - FLOBI-10], and 1 that has a maximum flow of 20 SLPM [named - FLOBI-20].
Things to remember when using these flow meters:
1) Do not over pressurize them (max = 50 PSIG). 'PSIG = pounds per square inch guage = pressure is relative to atmopsheric pressure'
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 flow meter prior to measuring your flow.
5) Note the starting
