Kofloc Model D3810 Digital Mass Flow Meter

The Kofloc Model D3810 Digital Mass Flow Meter is a high-precision instrument designed for the accurate measurement of gas flow rates in a digital format.

Description

The Kofloc Model D3810 Digital Mass Flow Meter represents a significant leap from mechanical flow indicators. It features a high-sensitivity thermal sensor and a bypass capillary system. As gas passes through the sensor, it detects the heat transfer proportional to the mass flow rate.

The D3810 is specifically designed for users who require an “all-in-one” solution. It houses the sensor, the processing electronics, and a 3.5-digit LCD display within a single compact body. This eliminates the need for external readout units. Furthermore, the Model D3810 provides a linear analog output signal (typically 0–5V DC), allowing it to communicate simultaneously with a local operator and a remote PLC or data logging system. Its robust construction and high accuracy of $\pm$2% F.S. make it a dependable workhorse for modern gas handling systems.
