The FMA1700/1800 Series electronic gas mass flowmeters provide for monitoring the flow of a wide variety
of gases from 10 SCCM up to 1000 SLM. Utilizing heat transfer through a heated tube to measure molecular
gas flow rate, the FMA1700/1800 provides measurement of direct gas mass flow rate, without the need to
compensate for variations in gas temperature or pressure (within stated limits). They are available in
an economical aluminum/brass construction for typical gas flows and a 316SS construction for applications
requiring more corrosion resistance. The FMA1700 series without integral display is supplied with a
field selectable analog 0 to 5 Vdc or 4 to 20 mA output for remote monitoring; the FMA1800 series has
both an integral 3½ digit display and analog output. The display is tiltable over 90° for viewing
convenience. The display is calibrated standard to read out directly in SCCM or SLM for nitrogen (other
gas calibrations available on special order).
Due to their low cost, digital display, analog output capability, and insensitivity to variations in gas
temperature and pressure, the FMA1700/1800 Series are ideal substitutes for many rotameter applications.
When used with the FMA178BP portable battery pack, the FMA1800 Series are ideal for in-the-field
calibration of flowmeters or testing of air sampling equipment. The FMA178BP battery pack includes
batteries, recharger, and carrying case with shoulder strap and belt loop. With the FMA178BP, the
flowmeter can operate in excess of 40 hours; the batteries can be recharged at least 200 times.
The FMA1700/1800 Series require 12 Vdc power @ 200 mA maximum, which can be supplied by the FMA178PW
plug-in socket power supply. The electronics are reverse polarity protected and has externally
accessible fusing. Model number FMA178C (supplied separately) provides a mating 9-pin “D” connector
with 3 feet of ribbon cable for accessing the 0 to 5 Vdc output signal and power input connections (use
FMA178C-MA for 4 to 20 mA output signal connection).
The LCD supplied with the FMA1800 Series is connected to the lower electronics via a modular plug. The
LCD can be remotely located by purchasing an FMA18RC remote cable assembly-you must then build your
own assembly for panel mounting the LCD.
Flow ranges specified are for nitrogen or air at 20 psig. When used for other gases, a multiplication factor is used to determine the flow rate,
and the digital display must be rescaled in the field. Or request a custom calibration by adding the gas and pressures as a suffix to the model number. All calibrations done at ambient (20C/70F) temperature only. Questions? Please contact Omega Flow Engineering!

Note: Comes complete with NIST certificate, compression fittings, and operator's manual. Power supplies sold separately.
For 316SS versions add suffix "ST" to the part number and consult Omega Flow Engineering for the price.
For 24VDC power units add suffix "-24VDC" to the model number, no additional cost.
For oxygen cleaned units, add suffix "02CLEAN to the model number, add $125 to price.
**Flow ranges specified are for nitrogen or air at 20 psig. When used for other gases, a multiplication factor is used to determine the flowrate. To request a custom calibration add the gas abbreviation and pressure as a suffix to the model number.
Calibrations done at ambient temperature only.
Ordering Example: (1) FMA1712ST Mass flowmeter without display, 316 SS body, $847.00, plus (1) FMA178PW Socket plug-in power supply for 115 Vac, $40.00, plus (1) FMA178C 9 Pin D Connector with 3 feet of ribbon cable, 0-5 Volt output, $28.00, plus (1) DPF64 Panel meter for rate indication, $290.00, $847.00 + 40.00 + 28.00 + 290.00 = $1,205.00
