MASS FLOW METER SUMMARY

The ST98 insertion-style mass flow meter is the flow measurement solution for virtually any gas or gas mixture in line sizes from >2 inches up to 42 inches [50mm to 1066mm].1 With ST98, FCI combines superior, equal mass thermal-dispersion flow sensing elements and precision electronics with exacting actual fluid calibration and a choice of rugged, industrial enclosures to deliver accurate, highly repeatable flow measurement and long lasting service for the most demanding processes.

Note 1: For line sizes 2 inches [50mm] and smaller, see Model ST98L in-line style.
