Molbox/Molbloc Mass Flow Calibration System from DH
Instruments
The DH Instruments
molbox/molbloc system is quickly becoming the industry standard for calibration of gas
mass flow controllers (MFCs) and mass flow meters (MFMs) in the range of 1 sccm to 1000
slm. The molbox system is replacing mercury-sealed piston provers, rate-of-rise (ROR)
systems and bell provers because of its fast response, high-accuracy and automation
capabilities. With the addition of COMPASS for molbox software, the calibration process
can be completely automated, including full data-logging and certificate printing.
The molbox interfaces with MFCs directly,
using the test device to vary the flow for automated, multi-point calibration sequences.
In the case of MFMs, which have no flow control capability, the system allows a separate
MFC to be used for setting flow, allowing full automation as well. |
Features include:
 |
+/-0.2% of
reading accuracy, NIST traceable |
 |
Range of less
than 1 sccm to 1000 slm  |
 |
Supports (16)
different process and surrogate gases |
 |
Real-time
measurement allows interactive MFC and MFM adjustment |
 |
Molbloc-S Sonic
Nozzle Elements cover ranges from 30 slm to 1000 slm with 0.2% accuracy  |
While the molbox/molbloc system can be used
manually via the front panel, the COMPASS for molbox software package adds additional
functionality, including:
 |
Unattended
multipoint calibration of MFCs and MFMs |
 |
Archiving of
calibration data for each DUT |
 |
Calibration
report generation directly from COMPASS |
 |
Automatic
generation of gas correction factors (K-factors) |
 |
Automated
calibration of MFMs using any MFC for gas flow control |

Reference Flow Monitor from DH Instruments
Molbox RFM is a portable,
lower-cost version of the molbox system detailed above. Using the same molbloc
laminar flow elements as the molbox1, RFM is useful in a variety of measurement, test and
calibration applications where highly accurate measurement of low gas flows are needed.
RFM is also compatible with COMPASS automated calibration and logging software,
simplifying data collection and archiving. |
Features include:
 |
NIST traceable
+/-0.5% of reading accuracy with 100:1 turndown |
 |
Ranges from <
1sccm to 100 slm |
 |
Both Mass and
Volumetric Flow |
 |
Standard
IEEE-488 and RS-232 interfaces |
 |
Advanced
measurement functions such as totalize, average, hi/lo & deviation |
 |
Molbloc laminar
flow elements can be shared with molbox1 above |
 |
Support for (16)
process gases |
 |
Compatible with
COMPASS software |
