Aalborg Instruments Low Cost Mass Flowmeter GFM17A-VADL2-A0

Description
Metered gases are divided into two laminar flow paths, one through the primary flow conduit, and the other through a capillary sensor tube. Both flow conduits are designed to ensure laminar flows and there- fore the ratio of their flow rates is constant. Two precision temperature sensing windings on the sensor tube are heated, and when flow takes place, gas carries heat from the upstream to the downstream wind- ings. The resultant temperature differential is proportional to the change in resistance of the sensor windings. A Wheatstone bridge design is used to monitor the temperature dependent resist- ance gradient on the sensor windings which is linearly proportional to the instantaneous rate of flow.
