Installation and Operation Manual X-TMF-5860E-MFM-eng Part Number: 541B106AAG November, 2008 Section 3 Operation Brooks® Model 5860E 3-4 Calibration Procedure NOTE 1: Calibration of the Model 5860E mass flowmeter requires the use of a digital voltmeter (DVM) a flow control valve or mass flow controller to set the flow rate and a precision flow standard calibrator such as the Brooks Vol-U-Meter®. It is recommended that the calibration be performed only by trained and qualified service personnel.

Section 3 Operation Installation and Operation Manual X-TMF-5860E-MFM-eng Part Number: 541B106AAG November, 2008 Brooks® Model 5860E Example: What is the percent of full scale error when full scale is equal to 100 sccm? Measured flow rate = 50.0 sccm Indicated flow rate = 48.5 sccm h. Calculate the TP2 correction voltage: (error recorded in step g) x 0.450 volts Example: Error = -1.5% TP2 correction voltage = -1.5 x 0.450 = -0.675 volts New TP2 voltage = 0 volts + (-0.675) = -0.675 volts i.
Section 3 Operation Brooks® Model 5860E Installation and Operation Manual X-TMF-5860E-MFM-eng Part Number: 541B106AAG November, 2008 3-5 Response (Flow Output Signal) To achieve the proper response characteristics the response compensation circuit must be adjusted. This adjustment is performed by observing the output signal of the meter when the flow is suddenly stopped. Place a metering valve upstream of the Model 5860E to control the flow rate.
Section 4 Maintenance Installation and Operation Manual X-TMF-5860E-MFM-eng Part Number: 541B106AAG November, 2008 Brooks® Model 5860E 4-1 General No routine maintenance is required on the Model 5860E other than an occasional cleaning. If an in-line filter is used, the filtering element should periodically be replaced or ultrasonically cleaned. 4-2 Troubleshooting A. System Checks The Model 5860E is generally used as a component in gas handling systems which can be quite complex.
Section 4 Maintenance Brooks® Model 5860E Installation and Operation Manual X-TMF-5860E-MFM-eng Part Number: 541B106AAG November, 2008 Table 4-1 Bench Troubleshooting Trouble Possible Cause Check/Corrective Action Output stays at 0 Volts regardless of flow. Clogged Sensor. Clean sensor. Refer to cleaning procedure. Section 4-4. Output signal stays at +6.8V and there is no flow through the meter. Defective PC Board. Replace PC Board. Refer to Section 4-4. Defective Sensor.
Section 4 Maintenance Installation and Operation Manual X-TMF-5860E-MFM-eng Part Number: 541B106AAG November, 2008 Brooks® Model 5860E Table 4-1 lists possible malfunctions which may be encountered during bench troubleshooting. C. Sensor Troubleshooting If it is believed the sensor coils are either open or shorted, troubleshoot using Table 4-2. If any of the steps do not produce the expected results the sensor assembly is defective and must be replaced.
Section 4 Maintenance Installation and Operation Manual X-TMF-5860E-MFM-eng Part Number: 541B106AAG November, 2008 Brooks® Model 5860E 4-3 Sensor Tube The sensor tube is part of a calibrated flow divider that is designed to operate within a preset gas flow range. The sensor assembly may be removed or replaced by referring to Section 4-4, Disassembly and Assembly. If the sensor assembly is cleaned and reinstalled, a calibration check should be performed. Refer to Section 3-4.
Section 4 Maintenance Installation and Operation Manual X-TMF-5860E-MFM-eng Part Number: 541B106AAG November, 2008 Brooks® Model 5860E B. Assembly Note: It is recommended that all O-rings be replaced during flowmeter assembly. All O-rings should be lightly lubricated with Halocarbon lubricant (part of O-ring kit, Section 5) prior to their installation. 1. Examine all parts for signs of wear or damage, replace as necessary. 2. Place the restrictor O-ring on the restrictor assembly.
Section 4 Maintenance Installation and Operation Manual X-TMF-5860E-MFM-eng Part Number: 541B106AAG November, 2008 Brooks® Model 5860E 4-5 Use of the Conversion Tables If a mass flowmeter is operated on a gas other than the gas it was calibrated with, a scale shift will occur in the relationship between the output signal and the mass flow rate. This is due to the difference in heat capacities between the two gases.

Section 4 Maintenance Installation and Operation Manual X-TMF-5860E-MFM-eng Part Number: 541B106AAG November, 2008 Brooks® Model 5860E 4-6 Restrictor Sizing The restrictor assembly is a ranging device for the sensor portion of the flowmeter. It creates a pressure drop which is linear with flow rate. This diverts a sample quantity of the process gas flow through the sensor. Each restrictor maintains the ratio of sensor flow to restrictor flow, however the total flow through each restrictor is different.
Section 4 Maintenance Brooks® Model 5860E Installation and Operation Manual X-TMF-5860E-MFM-eng Part Number: 541B106AAG November, 2008 Example: The desired gas is Silane (SiH4). The desired full scale flow rate is 200 sccm. Sensor conversion factor is 0.68 from Table 4-3. Air equivalent flow = 200/0.68 = 294.1 sccm air. In the example above a size P restrictor would be selected. Both the sintered metal and ACLFE are available for this size.
