With its advanced mass flow sensor capabilities, the Compod™ control valve, coupled with Sierra’s SmartTrak® 100 mass flow meters (MFM’s) or controllers (MFC’s) greatly simplifies air flow control systems and permits networking of multiple instruments using open-source MODBUS RTU protocol. Compod™ also monitors the functionality of the mass flow meter or controller and includes diagnostics, notifying users of valve faults or system upsets. By adding the Compod™ flow sensor control valve to a new or existing SmartTrak® MFM or MFC, end users can take complete control. Two digital outputs and one analog input can be configured by the user for a wide variety of air flow process controls including:
Gas mixing and blending
Batch control
Sensor driven leak testing
Process monitoring
Physical Vapor Deposition (Sputtering)
Pressure monitoring and control
Gas ratio control
Internal valve performance monitoring
Triggering alarms
Starting or stopping gas flows automatically under user-defined conditions
Gas flow totalization with adjustable pulse output
And many more...
