Meters withstand corrosive gases
25 January 2013
To overcome the challenges of process control in aggressive environments, Alicat Scientific has developed the MS and MCS series mass flow meters and controllers.

To overcome the challenges of process control in aggressive environments, Alicat Scientific has developed the MS and MCS series mass flow meters and controllers.
The all 316L stainless steel construction and FFKM elastomeric materials of the MS and MCS series provide metering and control options for the more common corrosive gases and gas mixes used in caustic process environments. Units are calibrated for 30 inert gases and a number of corrosive gases, including ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and sulfur dioxide.
The MS series mass flow meters quickly and accurately measure pressure, temperature and volumetric flow in addition to mass flow. Alicats laminar flow differential pressure technology delivers accurate results with speedy response time.
For applications requiring precision gas flow control, the MCS series mass flow controllers deliver accurate flow regulation of corrosive gases with the ability to respond to upstream gas flow changes, attaining and maintaining flow setpoints in less than 100ms.
