F-211CX

Intrinsically Safe Gas Mass Flow Controllers for low flow rates

Bronkhorst^® EX-FLOW Mass Flow Controllers (MFCs) are suited for precise gas flow control in ATEX Zone 1 hazardous areas. The flow meter part and the control valve of the MFC should be connected (via separate cables) to a power supply with galvanic isolation / preamplifier / readout system (located in the safe zone) which contains a controller board to complete the control loop. See Bronkhorst^® E-8000 Series.

EX-FLOW model F-211CX covers flow ranges from 0,3...15 ml_n/min up to 0,4...20 l_n/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.
The intrinsically safe valve coils are explosion proof certified and available in two options (ATEX certification only):
Coil XB: protection II 1 G Ex ia IIC T6 / protection II 1 D Ex ta IIIC T80°C
Coil XC: protection II 2 G Ex eb IIC T4 / protection II 2 D Ex tb IIIC T130°C
