2-4 Return Shipment
Prior to returning any instrument to the factory for any reason, visit our
website for instructions on how to obtain a Return Materials Authorization
Number (RMA #) and complete a Decontamination Statement to
accompany it: BrooksInstrument.com/Service. All instruments returned to
Brooks also require a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for the fluid(s)
used in the instrument. Failure to provide this information will delay
processing of the instrument.
Instrument must have been purged in accordance with the following:
2-5 Transit Precautions
To safeguard the instrument against transportation damage, it is
recommended to keep the instrument in its factory container until ready for
installation.
2-6 Removal from Storage
Upon removal of the instrument from storage, a visual inspection should be
conducted to verify its "as-received" condition. If the instrument has been
subject to storage conditions in excess of those recommended (See
Section 2-3), it should be subjected to a pneumatic pressure test in
accordance with applicable vessel codes.

2-7 Mechanical Connections
If mechanical connections were ordered from Brooks Instrument, an
integrated filter of 40 microns is already installed in the upstream fitting.
This is to prevent the possibility of any foreign material entering the flow
sensor or control valve (for MFC).
If the 48xx Series product was ordered without fittings, there is no internal
filter in the device. In this case, it is recommended that an in-line filter rated
to at least 40 microns be installed upstream from the device.
Recommended installation procedures:
a. The Brooks MFC or MFM should be located in a clean,
dry atmosphere relatively free from shock and vibration.
b. Install in such a manner that permits easy removal if the instrument
requires servicing.
c. The Brooks MFC or MFM can be installed in any position.
However, mounting in orientations other than the original factory
calibration (see calibration data sheet supplied with the instrument) can
result in a <±0.2% maximum full scale shift after re-zeroing.
d. When installing a mass flow controller or meter with full scale flow rates
of 10 ln/min (10 slpm) or greater, be aware that sharp, abrupt angles in
the system piping directly upstream of the controller may cause a small
shift in accuracy. If possible, have at least ten pipe diameters of straight
tubing upstream of the mass flow controller or meter. This is not
required for meters with an integrated inlet filter.

The setpoint signal is supplied as a 0 to 5 Vdc or 4 to 20 mA analog signal.
All signals are supplied via the 15-pin D-Connector. There is also an
optional local operator interface (LOI). When the LOI is used the setpoint
signal is provided by the LOI.
The Brooks electrical interface is designed to facilitate low-loss, quiet
signal connections. Separate returns (commons) are supplied for the
analog setpoint, analog flow signal, and the power supply. These commons
are electrically connected together on the PC board.

2-9 Operation Check Procedure
a. Mount the MFC/MFM in its final orientation.
b. Apply power to the MFC/MFM and allow approximately 15 minutes for
the instrument to completely warm up and stabilize its temperature.
c. Do NOT supply gas to the MFC/MFM. Ensure that the differential
pressure across the MFC/MFM is zero.
d. Apply a setpoint (MFC only) of:
0.000 Vdc ± 10 mV (0 - 5 Vdc setpoint)
4.000 mA ± 32 μA (4 - 20 mA setpoint)
e. If the zero exceeds one of these limits, follow the re-zeroing procedure
in Section 3. The analog output signal should be:
0.000 Vdc ± 10 mV (0 - 5 Vdc output)
4.000 mA ± 32 μA (4 - 20 mA output)
f. Turn on the gas supply. A positive flow signal may be present due to
slight valve leak-thru (MFC only).
g. Supply a setpoint signal between:
0 to 5 Vdc (0 - 5 Vdc setpoint)
4 to 20 mA (4 - 20 mA setpoint)

h. Check the analog output signal. The output signal should match the
setpoint signal in accordance with the accuracy specifications provided
in Section 1 of this document.
i. If flow output signal does not match the setpoint, and pressure settings
are correct, this could indicate a problem in the MFC. A secondary issue
could be the gas type. When checking with a surrogate gas, ensure that
there is enough pressure to the MFC in order to flow the correct amount
of the surrogate gas.

3-1 Operating Procedure
After the MFC/MFM has been properly installed in the process, it is ready
for operation. When initiating flow, slowly open the valve to avoid a flow
surge. Bypass is a help in bringing the flow on smoothly. Avoid starting a
pump to supply the flowmeter without the use of a valve upstream of the
flowmeter.
3-2 Theory of Operation
As with traditional Thermal Mass Flow devices, the 48xx Series flow
measurement system consists of two components: the flow restrictor and
the sensor. The purpose of the 48xx Series flow restrictor is to create
backpressure and force flow through the thermal sensor. Figure 3-1 is a
cross sectional cut-away view depicting gas flow around the thermal
sensor.
Figure 3-1 Gas Flow Across the MEMS Sensor
The 48xx Series sensor is a Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS)
based thermal sensor. As shown in Figure 3-1, the gas flows directly
across the MEMS sensor, resulting in extremely fast response times. As
with traditional thermal mass flow sensors, upstream and downstream
temperature sensors are centered around a heating element. As gas flows
across the upstream temperature sensor towards the heater and the
downstream temperature sensor, it cools the upstream temperature sensor
and heats the downstream temperature sensor. This causes the

temperature difference measured by the two temperature sensors to
increase with increasing flow. The temperature difference is then converted
into a flow signal based on the factory calibration.
There is one major difference between a traditional thermal mass flow
sensor and the MEMS based sensor. A traditional thermal mass flow
sensor makes use of a Cp transfer function. However, as depicted in
Figure 3-1, only a portion of the flow field is heated by the MEMS sensor.
Therefore, a Cp transfer function cannot be used in the MEMS sensor to
adjust the flow rate for a gas other than what the device was calibrated on
when it left the factory.
3-3 Features
Note: All Brooks Series mass flow meters are configured at the
factory according to customer order and do not require adjustment.
Not all features are available on all instruments.
The Brooks 48xx Series device is a full-featured digital MFC. The device
performs much like a traditional analog MFC, but with improved step
response and valve control. The analog interface matches that of Brooks'
popular analog MFCs so it can be retrofitted into tools using analog MFCs.
3-4 Analog I/O Mode of Operation
The following paragraphs describe the basic features of the Brooks 4800
Series instruments.
Functional Description
The analog interface may include any of the following I/O options as
specified by the user:
0 - 5 Vdc setpoint, 0 - 5 Vdc flow output
4 - 20 mA setpoint, 4 - 20 mA flow output
Also included is the Valve Override input pin. All analog signals available
are on the 15 pin D-Connector. (See Fig. 1-1 for connections.)
Before operating the MFC/MFM, apply power and warm-up the instrument
for approximately 15 minutes. After warm-up, apply gas pressure then
proceed by following the instructions in the following sections.
