Bronkhorst High-Tech BV has expand­ed its data­base of gas and liq­uid prop­er­ties with 1000 flu­ids to over 1800 flu­ids. This com­pre­hen­sive data­base, called Flu­i­dat, is used by the com­pa­ny for con­fig­u­ra­tion and extreme­ly accu­rate cal­i­bra­tion of its exten­sive port­fo­lio of flow meters and con­trollers, and for cal­cu­lat­ing pres­sure dif­fer­ences, valve seats, etc.. The most com­plete, most accu­rate data­base in its kind is also avail­able as a free, online cal­cu­la­tion tool for Bronkhorst cus­tomers who, for exam­ple, want to deter­mine con­ver­sion fac­tors when they want to use their flow meter for a gas (or gas mix­ture) oth­er than that for which the instru­ment is cal­i­brat­ed. This online cal­cu­la­tion tool, Flu­i­dat on the Net (www.fluidat.com), is also very valu­able for physi­cists who need to cal­cu­late flu­id prop­er­ties or need to con­sult the vapour pres­sure curve.

El-Flow Pres­tige, Bronkhorst’s high-per­for­mance gas mass flow meters and con­trollers, are stan­dard equipped with the data of 100 unique gas­es from the Flu­i­dat data­base, offer­ing the user unsur­passed flex­i­bil­i­ty in vary­ing gas type with opti­mum accu­ra­cy. With the embed­ded gas data, the El-Flow Pres­tige cal­cu­lates real-time the gas con­ver­sion based on the actu­al gas prop­er­ties. The free and easy-to-use soft­ware tool Flow­Tune enables the user to change the instrument’s con­fig­u­ra­tion swift­ly via the RS232 port of his computer.
