Instrument configurations
This instrument is available in many configurations. Each configuration
has a different part number. Figure 3 shows the part number structure.
Table 3 gives descriptions of the part number codes.

Example: An instrument with a 0.1 cfm flow rate, 0.5 μm sensitivity, bottom
exhaust port, flow measurement and RS485 communication will have the part
numbers 2088605-DF-S and 20888600-485. The second part number is
necessary to identify the type of serial communication (RS232 = 20888600-232,
RS485 = 20888600-485 or Pulse = 20888600-PLS). The second part number is
not necessary for any other communication type.
