BURKERT TYPE 8006 – MFM MASS FLOW METER FOR GASES

Model Number: 8006

Mass flow meters are used in process technology for the direct measurement of the mass flow of gases. In case of volumetric flow meters, it is necessary to measure the temperature and the pressure either the density, because gases change their density or rather their volume depending on the pressure. The measurement of the mass flow, on the other hand, is independent of the pressure and the temperature. The digital mass flow meter Type 8006 uses an inline sensor based on the thermal principle located directly in the main channel. Due to the fact that the sensor is directly in the main channel a very fast response time of the MFM is reached. Another benefit of this main stream measurement is that it is less sensitive to contamination. The actual flow is given as an analog output signal or could be read out over fieldbus communication. Type 8006 can optionally be calibrated for two different gases, the user is able to switch between these two gases. The materials of the parts that come into contact with the medium are selected according to customer specification so that the unit can be operated with the complete range of standard process gases.
