2-8 In-Line Filter
Unless an integrated (internal) filter is already installed, it is recommended
that an in-line filter be installed upstream from the mass flow controller or
meter to prevent the possibility of any foreign material entering the flow
sensor or control valve MFC. The filtering element should be replaced
periodically or ultrasonically cleaned.
Table 2-1 Recommended Filter Size
2-9 Installation
Recommended installation procedures:
a. The Brooks Digital MFC or MFM should be located in a clean,
dry atmosphere relatively free from shock and vibration.
b. Leave sufficient room for access to Self-zero function push-button.
c. Install in such a manner that permits easy removal if the instrument
requires servicing.
d. The Brooks Digital MFC or MFM can be installed in any position.
However, mounting in orientations other than the original factory
calibration(see calibration data sheet supplied with the instrument) can
result in a<±0.2% maximum full scale shift after re-zeroing.
