New Multi-Parameter Mass Flow Meters & Mass Flow Controllers for Gases
We are excited to announce today the release of a new product-line for accurate & afforable gas mass flow measurement and control for high flows: The d·flux multi series is a fast and reliable multi-parameter mass flow device for gases with measurement outputs for mass, normalized, volumetric flow, pressure and temperature.
The instrument is based on differential pressure measurement over an internal advanced laminar flow element. One of the many advantages of this laminar flow device is the ability to easily switch to a different gas without a loss in accuracy.
The new d·flux multi series features:
– Flow ranges from 0-350 ln/min up to 1400 ln/min up to 14 bara and from -20 to +60°C
– Advanced Modbus communication & analog output / Optional Profinet or EtherCAT interface (Ethernet IP available soon)
– The unit can contain up to 15 programmed gases in 15 different profiles (pre-programmed applications)
– The d·flux multi is IP54, 316L and has 1” process connections

Hydrogen Real Gas Calibration up to 500 ln/min
Good news: Thanks to improvements in our facilities at our new location in Muttenz, we are now able to calibrate our thermal mass flow meters and controllers up to 500 ln/min hydrogen with real gas.
The following accuracy can be realized:
red-y smart & industrial series
< 300 ln/min ±0.3% of full scale & ±0.5% of reading
> 300-500 ln/min ±1% of full scale
red-y compact series
< 300 ln/min ±1% of full scale
> 300-500 ln/min ±3% of full scale

Unsung Heroes – LifeVent Ventilator: How engineers help to save people in difficult times
We all see the heroes in this difficult COVID-19 pandemic. People who take the initiative and risks to help other people. Except for the nurses, doctors, caregivers, public service people and many more, there are also engineers who make their contribution in order to save lives.
Kaan Burak ÇAKIROĞLU from SSN Machinery in Turkey put all resources of his company into the development of a mechanical ventilator.

Reliability for the verification of microbial environmental air samplers
To avoid the risk of microbial contamination, environmental monitoring in pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities is controlled through aseptic processing, comprising microbiological test methods. In order to guarantee proper functioning of these air sample devices, regular verification is necessary. The digital mass flow meters from Vögtlin are especially suited for this task thanks to the high accuracy and repeatability, the long term stability and perfect temperature compensation.

New video tutorial about red-y compact 2 touch display settings
Together with our sister company AW-Lake we have created a video tutorial about the configuration settings of the red-y compact 2 touch display.
The touch display of this digital mass flow meter offers intuitive navigation. Many variables make the unit flexible are easily accessible. A position sensor allows automatic display adjustment.

Improved repeatability & plug-and-play functionality for Low-E
Low-E glass incorporates multiple layers of metal or other compounds as a surface coating that provides high transmittance for visible lights and high reflectance for mid-IR and far-IR lights.
The coating benefits are excellent heat insulation and favorable light transmission compared to standard and traditional-coated glass used in the building industry.

Efficient & precision Gas Flow Control in Biotechnology
Due to our experience we realize that most bio reactors are used for very critical and delicate processes where mass flow controllers need to be reliable, repeatable and flexible.
The quantities of fermentation gases strongly influence the mass transfer coefficient and there is no better way to precisely control gas flows than with thermal mass flow controllers from Vögtlin.

red-y compact 2 series now available with alarm option
We have the pleasure to announce the release of an advanced alarm module for the red-y compact 2 series which adds lots of functionality to our digital mass flow meters. The alarm module provides 3 configurable alarms. The following triggers are available: High alarm, low alarm, window alarm and totalizer alarm.
Together with the new alarm module we release an new firmware with new features & improvements:
180° screen rotation: They screen turns automatically 180 degrees if you turn the unit over. You can also manually set the display to permanently turn 180 degrees, especially convenient if the gas inlet is coming from the right.
Displayed flow and totalizer resolution setting manually adjustable: The display has the ability to read the flow in many different units, that means that the visible number of digits is calculated depending on the range and the units you select. Normally this is done automatically, but some customers want to see fewer digits to make the display less “nervous”. In addition to the automatic resolution setting of the flow and totalizer values, you can now set you own desired number of digits.
