Valve options & PID tuning
Your mass flow controller may be customized with one of the following valving options to ensure optimal performance under your expected process conditions. Additionally, custom PID valve tuning ensures maximum performance for your specific process conditions.
- MC: small proportional control valve for flow ranges of 20 SLPM and below
- MC with PCA designation: high-performance proportional control valve used for some applications with higher pressures
- MCP: small proportional control valve with the largest orifice (not available for corrosive configurations)
- MCH: hammerhead configuration, which pairs two small valves working side-by-side as one valve
- MCR: nearly frictionless large Rolamite proportional valve for flow rates of 50 SLPM and above
- MCT: easily switch flow control between two different flow paths

MCT: easily switch flow control between two different flow paths
Features
Included with each device
- Multi-variable process measurements: Simultaneously measure mass flow, volumetric flow, gas pressure, and gas temperature.
- User changeable units of measurement: Change the unit of measurement for pressure, flow, or temperature from our extensive list of engineering units.
- Gas Select: Select your process gas from any of the 98+ preloaded NIST-traceable gas calibrations in our gas list.
- Composer™: Define 20 custom gas mixtures of up to 5 constituent gases using our Composer™ firmware.
- Monochrome backlit LCD with integrated touchpad: Easily read measurements using the backlit display and control configurations with the user-friendly integrated touchpad.
- User adjustable setpoint ramping & limits: Configurable ramp rates allow the process variable to be controlled as fast or as slow as desired, and configurable setpoint limits protect processes from inadvertent setpoint changes.
- User adjustable standard temperature and pressure (STP) conditions: Quickly change reference conditions without need for recalibration.
- Valve close override and valve open override: Utilize alarms to quickly vent your system or stop all flow as needed.
