7.2.18 Close Loop 50% Flow Adjustment
Change the setpoint to 2.50 VDC to control at 50% of full scale flow. Check the
flow rate indicated against the flow calibrator. If the flow is not within ±0.75% of
full scale, re-adjust the setting for potentiometer [R38], until the flow output is cor-
rect.
7.2.19 Close Loop 75% Flow Adjustment
Change the setpoint to 3.75 VDC to control at 75% of full scale flow. Check the
flow rate indicated against the flow calibrator. If the flow is not within ±0.75% of
full scale, re-adjust the setting for potentiometer [R39], until the flow output is cor-
rect.
7.2.20 Close Loop 100% Flow Adjustment
Change the setpoint to 5.00 VDC to control at 100% of full scale flow. Check the
flow rate indicated against the flow calibrator. If the flow rate is not within ±0.75%
of full scale, re-adjust the setting for potentiometer [R40], until the flow output is
correct.
Repeat steps 7.2.15 to 7.2.20 at least once more.

Mass Flow Controllers
All adjustments in this section are made from the outside of the meter, there is no
need to disassemble any part of the instrument. FMA 5400A/5500A Mass Flow
Controllers may be field recalibrated/checked for the same range they were orig-
inally factory calibrated for. When linearity adjustment is needed, or flow range
changes are being made proceed to step 7.2.4. Flow range changes may require
a different Restrictor Flow Element (RFE). Additionally, a different Solenoid Valve
Orifice may also be required (see Table VI). Consult Omega
