0765-4-F-5200

DESCRIPTION

All F-5000 Series Thermal Mass Flow Meters provide accurate mass flow measurement of natural gas, compressed air and other industrial gases. The proprietary sensor design measures mass flow directly and does not require additional pressure or temperature compensation to deliver accurate flow data.

The F-5200 is available as an inline or an insertion style meter. Both versions require 24 VDC power and are provided with a single analog 4-20 mA output and a separate scalable contact closure pulse output.

APPLICATIONS

• Natural Gas • Other Combustible Gases

• Compressed Air • Industrial Gases

CALIBRATION

Every ONICON flow meter is wet calibrated in a flow laboratory against standards that are directly traceable to N.I.S.T. A certificate of calibration accompanies every meter.

FEATURES

Excellent Long Term Reliability -

ONICON thermal mass flow meters employ a low maintenance, non-moving parts technology to sense flow and are generally unaffected by debris in the flow stream.

Highly Accurate Over A Wide Operating Range -

Our proprietary hybrid analog/digital sensing circuitry is very stable and yet highly responsive to changes in flow. This stable yet responsive design allows for accurate flow measurement over a very wide operating range (over 1000:1 for the inline version). It also makes the meter ideal for measuring low flow rates.

Inline Meters Are Provided With Built-in Flow Conditioners -

Flow conditioners are built in to all ½” through 4” diameter inline meters. The flow conditioner significantly reduces overall straight run requirements for installation.

Insertion Meters Can Be Installed Without Interrupting Gas Service* -

ONICON’s hot tap design allows for installation without interruption to the gas service. The meter can also be removed for service without disrupting flow.

Excellent Value -
ONICON insertion style meters are accurate, easy-to-use and reliable. They are also priced independently of pipe size. This makes them an excellent value, particularly in larger diameter pipes.
