Thermal Mass Flow Controller/ Meter "SLA5800 Series"

The GP200 series is the first fully pressure-independent PMFC designed specifically for semiconductor applications. With GP200's unique differential pressure technology and state-of-the-art sensor and valve configuration, it eliminates the limitations of traditional pressure-based mass flow controllers, enabling the most extensive and accurate process gas control in the industry. Brooks developed the world's first MFC that allows for the reconfiguration of gas types and flow ranges, and has continued to refresh gas models since its release, with the same functionality incorporated into the GP200. It allows for easy reconfiguration for many gas types and a wide range of flow rates, providing flexible support for a variety of processes. The ultra-fast and highly reproducible valve control of the GP200, along with its resistance to pressure fluctuations, maintains precise flow control to the chamber even in cases of extreme supply pressure variations, enabling tighter process control. The GP200 platform supports a wide range of process conditions and can replace or upgrade many traditional pressure-based mass flow controllers.

When using a thermal mass flow meter, it is very important to understand its measurement principle. Setting high-precision and stable process conditions is not only essential but also very beneficial for troubleshooting and early detection. The sensor consists of a heater (H) placed in the center of the tube and temperature sensors (T1 and T2) positioned equidistantly on either side. The heater is continuously supplied with properly controlled power, generating heat. When there is no flow in the sensor tube, the heat from the heater is evenly transferred to temperature sensors T1 and T2, resulting in both being at the same temperature. However, when there is flow in the direction indicated by the arrows in the diagram, the fluid carries heat away from T1, causing its temperature to drop, while T2 receives heat, resulting in a temperature increase. The resulting temperature difference between T1 and T2 becomes a function of the mass flow rate of the fluid within the sensor tube. This is processed appropriately and output as an electrical signal representing the mass flow rate.
