Product Description
Ultra-Low-Flow Gas Mass Flow Controller for Trace Applications
The Series GFC Model GFC-1103 Gas Mass Flow Controller is engineered for precise gas delivery below 50 mL/min, making it an ideal solution for analytical systems, pilot reactors, semiconductor tooling, leak detection rigs, and thin-film deposition processes.
Using a straight-tube thermal sensor paired with PID-driven electromagnetic valve control, the GFC-1103 automatically compensates for temperature and pressure fluctuations to hold programmed flow setpoints with exceptional stability. Dual analog outputs simplify integration into PLC panels, vacuum skids, and automated test stands, while the tilting LCD display improves readability in compact lab environments.
Each unit is factory calibrated and supplied with a NIST-traceable certificate, supporting regulated production environments, quality assurance programs, and research documentation.
