Every day our engineers work with customers to find innovative ways to make their respective systems more efficient and reliable. Companies involved in automotive manufacturing, fuel cell development, environmental testing, leak detection, spray drying, tank blanketing, extra-planetary exploration, atmospheric testing, fiber optics and process gas metering turn to Alicat for mass flow solutions.

Alicat's standard lines of mass flow controller and mass flow meter products are an easy to use and benefit-rich, laminar alternative to more common thermal flow meter and thermal flow controller instruments. The versatility of our gas flow meter and gas flow controller devices is reflected in their numerous standard features. Dynamic graphical displays with mass flow, volumetric flow, pressure and temperature data, RS-232 serial output and your choice of an additional analog or current output are all standard. The display also supports easy selection of one of 30 built-in standard gas calibrations for diversified use in lab and field environments.

All Alicat flow controllers and pressure controllers also include field adjustable access to the terms of the PID loop controlling, allowing for easy and precise adjustment of the control response time based on your application.

Alicat liquid flow meter and liquid flow controller lines were designed with laboratory and process automation in mind. These devices utilize the same principles of laminar flow that are used in Alicat mass flow meters and mass flow controllers. Alicat liquid flow meters and liquid flow controllers are available in a variety of ranges.
