Product Description
Ultra-Low Flow Gas Mass Flow Controller for Critical Process Systems
The Series GFC Model GFC-2131 Gas Mass Flow Controller is designed for applications requiring exceptionally stable gas delivery at flow rates up to 30 LPM. By combining a straight-tube thermal sensor with a precision restrictor element, this controller maintains repeatable output even when inlet pressure or temperature changes.
Built for integration into automated equipment, the GFC-2131 supports standard analog control signals and features a tiltable LCD for local verification — making it ideal for laboratory manifolds, thin-film deposition tools, and vacuum process lines.
