Intrinsically Safe Gas Mass Flow Meters for higher flow rates

Bronkhorst® EX-FLOW Mass Flow Meters (MFMs) are suited for precise gas flow measurement in ATEX Zone 1 hazardous areas. The MFM should be connected to a power supply with galvanic isolation / preamplifier / readout system (located in the safe zone). See Bronkhorst® E-8000 Series.

EX-FLOW model F-113AX covers flow ranges from 4...200 ln/min up to 25...1250 ln/min (N2-equivalent) at operating pressures up to 100 bar.

The intrinsically safe measuring head of the flow meter is tested according to ATEX 114 Directive 2014/34/EU and approved under EC-Type Examination Number: KEMA 01ATEX1172, protection II 2 G Ex ib IIC T4 Gb.
Other certifications: IECEx (IECEx DEK14.0060), TIIS (検・第TC21584号) and KCs = Ex ib IIC T4.
