Opti on: Remote Electronics for High Line or Gas Temperatures
Some applicati ons involve operati ng
temperatures outside the standard Alicat
device specifi cati ons. A soluti on using
remote electronics is available. (This opti on is
not applicable for liquid devices.)
The fl ow body’s components are minimized
to only the required sensors. The fl ow data is
sent to the microprocessor electronics up to
6 feet away from the sensor package.
Relocati ng the sensiti ve electronics allows
for installati on of the fl ow body in ambient
temperatures as high as 85° Celsius with gas temperatures under 100°Celsius.
In these applicati ons we recommend our custom gauge calibrati on at a
gas temperature of up to 70°Celsius. This will reduce zero shift errors that
occur when actual gas fl ow temperatures deviate substanti ally from the gas
calibrati on temperature.
This confi gurati on is also used in integrati ons that require a compact fl ow
package at the installati on point.
Opti on: Remote Panel Display
Our Remote Display opti on off ers the fl exibility of using
Alicat’s display with units that are embedded inside
processes or instrument enclosures.
The Remote Display retains all of the same features as our
standard display.
The Remote Display is ideal for:
● OEMs Remote Panel Mounti ng ● Embedded Systems
● Gas Panels
● Fuel Cell Test Stati ons
● Leak Detecti on Systems
● Arti fi cial Environments
