The Restek Proflow 6000 flowmeter is said to be ideal for measuring explosive and flammable gases, having been specifically designed for this type of work.
Flow meters that can measure flammable gases are becoming mandatory, due to the increased use of hydrogen in chromatography The Proflow 6000 is an electronic device capable of measuring bidirectional volumetric flow for most gases across a range of 0.5-500mL/min.
Calibration is traceable to NIST primary standards and the CE-certified meter has accuracy of +/- 2 per cent of flow or +/- 0.05mL/min.
Real-time measurements can be made for various types of flow paths, including continually changing gas types.
Safety features include auto shutoff and over-range warning indicator.
The portable unit is ergonomically designed for handheld use, or alternatively its stand makes it suitable for the bench top.
The Proflow 6000 is backed by a one-year warranty.
