  Electronic pressure controller for gases
with integrated flow measurement
         
  Pressure and flow in a single device
  red-y smart pressure controller GSP
  red-y smart pressure controller GSP
   
  The new electronic red-y smart pressure controllers combine the reliable technology our of thermal mass flow controllers with electronic pressure control.
The devices automatically control a predefined process pressure and at the same time measure and/or limit the flow rate.
On-the-fly switching between pressure control and flow control offers maximum flexibility.
   
  1 device – 3 functions
  The pressure controller combines three functions:
– Pressure controller
– Pressure controlerl with flow measurement/limitation
– Flow controller with pressure measurement
   
  Instrument versions:
  – Integrated pressure control: Accuracy:± 0.5 % of full scale, turndown ratio: 1 : 10
– Integrated back pressure control: Accuracy:± 0.5 % of full scale, turndown ratio: 1 : 5
– Pressure control with external pressure transmitters
– Pressure controller with gas mixer function
