Design Features
Hastings Instruments products represent over 50 years of experience in the
design and manufacture of mass flow products. The all-metal seal 300 Series
Metaline is a culmination of this experience with patented technologies
that make these instruments the finest flowmeters and controllers available
today.
The Hastings Mass Flow 300 Metaline Series meters and controllers are
designed to accurately measure mass flow without corrections or compensations
for gas pressure and temperature. They are accurate to better than ±0.75%
at 3 sigma. Hastings mass flow instruments do not require any periodic
maintenance under normal operating conditions with clean gases. No damage
will occur from the use of moderate overpressures (~500 psi) or overflows.
Instruments are normally calibrated with the appropriate standard calibration
gas (nitrogen), then a correction factor is used to adjust the output
for the intended gas. Special calibrations for other gases, such as oxygen,
helium and argon, are available upon special order.
These products contain a number of features that set them apart from
other available instruments: (1) They are inherently linear; no linearisation
circuitry is employed. Should recalibration in the field be desired (a
calibration standard is required), the customer needs to simply set the
zero and span points. (2) The output signal is linear for very large
overflows and will not come back on scale when a flow an order of magnitude
over the full scale flow rate is measured. (3) The HFM-300 incorporates
a removable/replaceable sensor module.
