Our Technology - How it Works
All thermal Gas Mass Flow Meters from Fox utilize the thermal sensing principle, a proven, accurate direct mass flow measurement technology. This technology performs at high levels of accuracy for a wide variety of gases.

Fox Thermal Flow Meters use a constant temperature differential (constant Δ T) technology to measure mass flow rate of air and gases. Fox Models FT2A and FT3 are equipped with the PowerPro™ Sensor while Models FT1, FT4A and FT4X have the DDC-Sensor™. Both thermal mass flow sensors consist of two Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTD’s). The sensor elements are constructed of a reference grade platinum wire wound around ceramic mandrels that are inserted into stainless steel tubes.

Benefits of Thermal Mass Flow Technology
There are many benefits of thermal gas mass flow meters over other flow measurement technologies and Fox Thermal leads the industry for accuracy, quality, and innovative design. Benefits of Thermal Mass Flow Technology:

• Direct mass flow measurement of air and gases in standard volumetric units (e.g., SCFM or NM3/H) or mass units (e.g., LBS/M or KG/H)
• No additional pressure or temperature compensation required
• Repeatability and exceptionally broad measurement range: up to 1000:1 (100:1 typical)
• Standard linear 4-20mA output proportional to mass flow rate
• Low pressure drop
• No moving parts
• Cost-effective
• Insertion, Inline and remote* styles
• Measures flow rate and temperature
