    What to do if TSI Incorporated 4140 Measuring Instruments flow readings fluctuate greatly?
    • P
      Paula GeorgeAug 2, 2025
      If you observe significant fluctuations in flow readings, it could be due to actual flow variations. To address this, try improving the inlet conditions or increasing the display averaging time.

    Why does my TSI Incorporated 4140 Measuring Instruments temperature read high at low flows?
    • S
      Susan BryanAug 9, 2025
      A high temperature reading at low or zero flows can occur because the temperature sensor is being heated by the flow sensor. Once the flow rate through the flowmeter exceeds 1 Std L/min, the temperature value will accurately reflect the actual gas temperature.

      Ronald SanchezAug 17, 2025
      If the display indicates flows are over-range even when no flow is passing through the flow tube, the sensor may be damaged. In this case, return the flowmeter to TSI for service.
