SPECIFICATIONS

FLOW MEDIUM: Please note that GFM17/37/47/57/67/77 Mass Flow Meters are designed to
work with clean gases only. Never try to meter or control flow rates of liquids with any GFM's.

CALIBRATIONS: Performed at standard conditions [14.7 psia (1.01 bars) and 70

ENVIRONMENTAL (per IEC 664): Installation Level II; Pollution Degree II.

ACCURACY: ±1.5% F.S. (optional enhanced accuracy ±1% F.S.).

REPEATABILITY: ±0.25% of full scale.

TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT: 0.15% of full scale/

PRESSURE COEFFICIENT: 0.01% of full scale/psi (0.07 bar).

RESPONSE TIME: 800 ms time constant; approximately 2 seconds to within ±2% of set
flow rate for 25% to 100% of full scale flow rate.

GAS PRESSURE: 1000 psig (69 bars) GFM 17, 37 and 47; 500 psig (34.5 bars) GFM 57,
