Chapter 1. OVERVIEW
■ Summary
The MCF air flowmeter uses a µF (Micro Flow) sensor in its sensing unit. The µF
sensor is a thermal flow speed sensor which uses proprietary technology.
Integrating this ultra-miniature flow speed sensor with high-grade channel design
technology has achieved high accuracy and wide rangeability.
■ Features
• Incorporates a thermal flow speed Micro Flow sensor. With the silicon micro-
machining and the thin-film forming technologies, the µF sensor is a mere 1.7
mm square and 0.5 mm thick, and features high sensitivity and fast response.
• Because this device is a mass flowmeter, its readings are not affected by temper-
ature or pressure.
• The MCF with 4 to 20 mA output provides instantaneous flow rate and inte-
grated flow display, and provides analog current output for instantaneous flow
rate, as well as event outputs for integration pulse or alarms.
The MCF with RS-485 communications provides instantaneous flow rate, inte-
grated flow display and RS-485 communications function.
• A bypass structure using orifices affords a wider flow rate range per pipe size
than previous mass flowmeters, with low pressure loss.
• Dust tightness is improved by the bypass structure and flow path design.
• Self-diagnostic function for easy handling of malfunctions.
• Measurement module is detachable, so maintenance can be done without remov-
ing the flowmeter.
• Measurement module can be swapped between the MCF0250, MCF0400 and
MCF0500.
• Display unit can be rotated, for viewing from the desired direction.
Display unit can be rotated and fixed at the desired angle.
