Whisper™ MW Series Meters

Low Pressure Drop Mass Flow Meters with Laminar Differential Pressure Technology

Low pressure drop mass flow meter - Whisper MW Series from Alicat Scientific
Low pressure drop mass flow meters are ideal for systems with limited source pressure. Whisper instruments create minimal pressure drop (as low as 0.07 PSID).

  • 98 standard pre-loaded gas choices — switch easily, without losing accuracy
  • Measures mass flow, volumetric flow, temperature, and pressure
  • Instant warm-up (<1 second)
  • 0.01 – 100% measurement range (10,000:1 turndown)
  • Laminar DP (differential pressure) mass flow measurement technology
  • Limited Lifetime Warranty
Full Scale Flow Ranges

0.5 SCCM – 1,000 SLPM

OPERATING PRESSURE RANGE

11.5 – 60 PSIA
