1. UNPACKING THE FMA 4000 MASS FLOW METER 1.1 Inspect Package for External Damage Your FMA 4000 Mass Flow Meter was carefully packed in a sturdy cardboard car- ton, with anti-static cushioning materials to withstand shipping shock. Upon receipt, inspect the package for possible external damage. In case of external damage to the package contact the shipping company immediately. 1.2 Unpack the Mass Flow Meter Open the carton carefully from the top and inspect for any sign of concealed ship- ping d

CAUTION: FMA 4000 TRANSDUCERS SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR MONITORING OXYGEN GAS UNLESS SPECIFICALLY CLEANED AND PREPARED FOR SUCH APPLICATION. For more information, contact Omega7. F Attitude limit of the Mass Flow Meter is ±15 from calibration position (standard calibration is in horizontal position). This means that the gas flow path of the Flow Meter must be within this limit in order to maintain the original calibration accura- cy. Should there be need for a different orientation of the me

3. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION The stream of gas entering the Mass Flow transducer is split by shunting a small portion of the flow through a capillary stainless steel sensor tube. The remainder of the gas flows through the primary flow conduit. The geometry of the primary con- duit and the sensor tube are designed to ensure laminar flow in each branch. According to principles of fluid dynamics the flow rates of a gas in the two laminar flow conduits are proportional to one another. Therefore, the fl

4. SPECIFICATIONS FLOW MEDIUM: Please note that FMA 4000 Mass Flow Meters are designed to work only with clean gases. Never try to measure flow rates of liquids with any FMA 4000. F CALIBRATIONS: Performed at standard conditions [14.7 psia (101.4 kPa) and 70 F F (21.1 C)] unless otherwise requested or stated. ENVIRONMENTAL (PER IEC 664): Installation Level II; Pollution Degree II. FLOW ACCURACY (INCLUDING LINEARITY): ±1% of FS at calibration temperature and pressure. REPEATABILITY: ±0.15% of ful

CAUTION: Omega makes no expressed or implied guarantees of corrosion resistance of mass flow meters as pertains to different flow media reacting with components of meters. It is the customers' sole responsibility to select the model suitable for a particular gas based on the fluid contacting (wetted) materials offered in the different models. INLET AND OUTLET CONNECTIONS: Model FMA 4000 standard 1/4" compression fittings. Optional 1/8" or 3/8" compression fittings and 1/4" VCR fittings are

5. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 5.1 Preparation and Warm Up It is assumed that the Mass Flow Meter has been correctly installed and thor- oughly leak tested as described in section 2. Make sure the flow source is OFF. When applying power to a flow meter within the first two seconds, you will see on the LCD display: the product name, the software version, and revision of the EEP- ROM table (applicable for LCD option only).

Note: Allow the Digital Mass Flow Meter to warm-up for a MINIMUM of 6 minutes. During initial powering of the FMA 4000 transducer, the flow output signal will be indicating a higher than usual output. This is an indication that the FMA 4000 transducer has not yet attained its minimum operating temperature. This condition will automatically cancel within a few minutes and the transducer should eventu- ally indicate zero. Note: During the first 6 minutes of the initial powering of the FMA 4000
