2.7.3. Operation with an external sensor. (Fig. 2.2)
In some instances, it might be desirable to use an external sensor to provide process information to the control circuitry in the flow controller. For example, you might want to control the pressure in a vacuum system by adjusting the rate at which the system is backfilled with a gas. The new, enhanced HFC series of flow controllers have provision for accepting a
2.7.4. Soft Start
The response of the control circuit to sudden changes in the Command signal is set at the factory for fast, stable response and minimal overshoot. If any overshoot is a problem in a particular system, it is possible to slow down the controller response to sudden Command changes. Remove the outer cover from the instrument and remove pin jumper JP6 this will insert an
2.8.Range Changing:
The range of the flow controller can be changed in the field if recalibration facilities are available. The flow controller may require a different orifice and different laminar Flowmeter element (shunt), which can be purchased separately from the factory. A listing of the orifices and shunts are available and their flow rates can be found in Section 4.8.
The range of the small tube shunts can be changes by changing the front disk, consult factory for more information on disk options.
