Alicat Scientific now offers its Mass Flow Meters and Mass Flow Controllers with the industry's highest turndown ratio - 200:1 - as standard. With this wide sensitivity range, OEMs and systems integrators can achieve cost and space savings without sacrificing performance.

Alicat meters and controllers measure mass flow using differential pressure and a patented laminar flow technology, resulting in fast response with a rugged design. The turndown ratio of a flow instrument refers to the ratio of minimum flow to full scale flow that the unit can accurately measure. While the industry standard for this performance parameter is 100:1 or less, Alicat's new 200:1 ratio covers a wider flow range with fewer pieces of instrumentation.
