The MKS Instruments 1150C Heated Pressure-Based Mass Flow Controller Using Viscous Flow Through a Choked Orifice is a pressure-based measurement and control system designed to meter and control vapor from low vapor pressure liquid and solid sources directly, without the need of a carrier gas.
The 1150C consists of a fixed flow element and one capacitance manometer for flow measurement, with a proportioning solenoid control valve for flow control (U.S. patent No. 4,679,585). The 1150C is contained within a compact temperature-controlled assembly with a temperature status LED and relay to indicate when temperature is in range.
