The P4B is a 1.125 inch body, multi-gas/multi-range, metal sealed, Mass Flow Meter (MFM). The P4B meter incorporates the latest in digital flow meter electronics along with a well proven, patented thermal sensor and mechanical design. The digital electronics utilize the latest MKS algorithms providing multi-gas/multi-range measurement capability. Included is a digital calibration that yields 1% of Reading accuracy on the calibration gas.
The following options are available for P4B High Performance Mass Flow Meters

The multi-gas/multi-range capability, along with tight performance specifications for accuracy, allow users to minimize inventory of high flow MFM part numbers. The multi-gas/multi-range feature (along with other custom controls) is accessed through the MFM embedded diagnostic interface, that requires no special software or hardware to operate. A standard Ethernet cable and JAVA-enabled HTML browser, widely available, are all the tools needed. The critical gas parameters for typical high flow rate gases are already stored on the device. Configuring the device is simply a matter of selecting the gas from a drop down menu and specifying the desired full scale flow range. The diagnostic interface also allows the user to perform routine device health checks, plot flow, and store operating data for off-line analysis.
