  • Page 15: Section 3 Operation

    Model 5861E November, 2008 3-1 Theory of Operation The thermal mass flow sensing technique used in the 5861E works as follows: A precision power supply provides a constant power heat input (P) at the heater which is located at the midpoint of the sensor tube. (Refer to Figure 3- 1) At zero or no flow conditions, the heat reaching each temperature sensor (one upstream and one downstream of the heater) is equal.
  • Page 16: Operating Procedure

    3-3 Zero Adjustment Each Model 5861E is factory adjusted to provide a 0 ±10mVdc signal at zero flow. After initial installation and warm-up in the gas system the zero flow indication may be other than the factory setting. This is primarily caused by changes in temperature between our calibration laboratory and the final installation.
  • Page 17: Calibration Procedure

    3-4 Calibration Procedure NOTE 1: Calibration of the Model 5861E mass flowmeter requires the use of a digital voltmeter (DVM) a flow control valve or mass flow controller to set the flow rate and a precision flow standard calibrator such as the Brooks Vol-U-Meter ®...
