2-11 Operation Check Procedure

a. Mount the MFC/MFM in its final orientation.

b. Apply power to the MFC/MFM and allow approximately 45 minutes for

the instrument to completely warm up and stabilize its temperature.

c. Do NOT supply gas to the MFC/MFM. Ensure that the differential

pressure across the MFC/MFM is zero.

d. Apply a setpoint of:

0.000 Vdc ± 10 mV (0 - 5 Vdc setpoint)
1.000 Vdc ± 10 mV (1 - 5 Vdc setpoint)
0.000 mA ± 100

μA (0 - 20 mA setpoint)

4.000 mA ± 100

μA (4 - 20 mA setpoint)

e. If the zero exceeds one of these limits, follow the re-zeroing procedure

in Section 3-4. The analog output signal should be:

0.000 Vdc ± 10 mV (0 - 5 Vdc output)
1.000 Vdc ± 10 mV (1 - 5 Vdc output)
0.000 mA ± 40

μA (0 - 20 mA output)

4.000 mA ± 40

μA (4 - 20 mA output)

f. Turn on the gas supply. A positive flow signal may be present due to

slight valve leak-thru (MFC only).

g. Supply a setpoint signal between:

0 to 5 Vdc (0 - 5 Vdc setpoint)
1 to 5 Vdc (1 - 5 Vdc setpoint)
0 to 20 mA (0 - 20 mA setpoint)
4 to 20 mA (4 - 20 mA setpoint)

h. Check the analog output signal. The output signal should match the

setpoint signal in accordance with the accuracy specifications provided
in Section 1-4 of this document.
