Mass Flow Elements

molstic-S™ provides an engineered solution to

the practical issues of mounting molbloc-S® mass

flow elements, connecting a gas supply, regulat-

ing the operating pressure and connecting the

device under test (DUT). A filter is included on

the 1/4 inch molstic-S to protect the smaller

molbloc-S elements from contamination. Highest

quality components are integrated into a con-

venient, compact, modular assembly to assure

optimum molbloc®/molbox™ performance.

The single channel molstic-S is designed to

accommodate one molbloc-S element. The dual

channel allows two molbloc-S elements to be

simultaneously mounted, allowing use of two

ranges without changing hardware during a

test. In addition, the outlet of the two molbloc-S

elements can be plumbed in parallel using the

downstream tee assembly (P/N 401884) in order

to obtain additional flow range capacity when

using a two-channel molbox1.

A key benefit of its modular design is that

molstic-S can be used for testing devices in

either the upstream or downstream position.

The optional, adjustable DUT stand (P/N 401934)

accommodates large DUTs that do not fit on the

molstic-S.

molstic-S is available in either 1/2 inch or

1/4 inch system plumbing sizes. The 1/4 inch

size is dedicated to the molbloc-S elements des-

ignated 1E2-S and lower, and the 1/2 inch size

is for the 2E2-S through 2E3-S elements.

All molstic-S platforms come with integrated

flow shut-off/metering valves. This allows for

system leak testing and provides a means of

flow control (if required by DUT type). Optional

high resolution metering valve kits are available

for use with the 1/4 inch molstic-S in order to

obtain finer flow control capability.

molstic-S USAGE

Because molbloc-S operates in the critical flow

regime, test devices that have flow control

capability must be installed upstream of the

molbloc-S in order to control flow.

Devices that are to be calibrated at atmo-

spheric pressure are generally installed

downstream of the molbloc-S. molstic-S is built

modularly in order to provide this flexibility.

Inlet gas supply pressure regulation is vitally

important in order to protect the molbox pres-

sure transducers. Therefore, it is recommended

that the molstic-S Supply Only molstic be used

upstream of test devices that have flow control

capability and that the pressure reducing regu-

lator option be installed on the molstic-S when

calibrating devices that operate at atmospheric

pressure.

An optional back pressure regulator can be

installed on the molstic-S to provide control of

an upstream DUT’s downstream pressure.

Dimensions

Configuration notes

• Each molstic-S comes with

50 centimeters (20 inches)

of clear PFA tubing in order

to provide versatility in the

connection of the device

under test (DUT) and inlet

supply plumbing.

• All molstic-S platforms come

with integrated flow shut-

off/metering valves. This

allows for system leak test-

ing and provides a means

of flow control (if required

by DUT type).

• The 1/4 inch molstic-S

platforms are designed

to be used with the

molbloc-S elements desig-

nated 1E2-S and lower. The

1/2 inch molstic-S platforms

are designed for use with

the 2E2-S through 2E3-S

elements. P/N 401935

replaces the 1/2 inch

molbloc-S inlet flange of

the higher flow elements

so that they can be used on

the 1/4 inch molstic-S. This

is only recommended for

2E2-S molbloc-S element

with either calibration type,

or the 5E2-S with the LP

calibration.

• P/N 401936 replaces the

1/4 inch molbloc-S inlet

flange of the lower flow

molblocs so that they can

be used on the 1/2 inch

molstic-S. This is only

recommended for 1E2-S

molbloc-S element.

Typical “upstream DUT” 1/2 inch includes supply only, adjustable

DUT stand and molstic-S with back pressure regulator option
