The MesaLabs Bios DryCal FlexCal series calibrator is a precision primary flow calibrator comprised of three models with flow ranges from 5 ccm to 50 LPM, capable of volumetric and standardized flow measurement accuracy of 0.5% of the reading. An economical option for small analytical laboratories, research & development organizations, manufacturing and calibration labs that may not need the 0.15% accuracies of the MetLab 800 series calibrators. Perfect, for instance, for use in calibrating industrial mass flow meters.

  • USB connectivity
  • Flow ranges from 5 ccm to 50 LPM
  • Quick start operation
  • Graphical LCD display
  • User-selectable flow units and time intervals

The FlexCal is small, easy to carry and ready for even the most demanding of applications. When using the Mesa Labs FlexCal, you are guaranteed high accuracy with high confidence without the use of soap bubbles, timers, or heavy mercury provers. Quick start operation Graphical LCD display user-selectable flow units and time intervals.

A versatile, push-button flow meter, the FlexCal is a primary flow standard which enables the user to accurately calibrate a variety of instruments while maintaining an ISO 17025-traceable audit trail.

MesaLabs DryCal FlexCal Overview

Accuracy

  • Standardized or Volumetric Flow: 0.5%
  • MesaLabs is a fully accredited ISO-17025 facility with a 0.08% Scope of Accreditation for gas flow by NVLAP of NIST.
  • Integrated temperature sensors and pressure transducers placed directly in the flow stream for optimum standardized results recording
Flexibility
  •  Choose between volumetric or standardized flow units – (mL/min, L/min, cc/min, cf/min)
  •  Include up to one hundred readings in a group average
  •  Take individual readings, continuous hands-free readings, or set to read in time intervals anywhere  from one minute to sixty minutes between readings

Software:

  • The DryCal® Pro software is available for the FlexCal with an integrated USB PC interface for easy transfer of flow data to a text file, with automatic recording and graphing of flow measurements. These records can also be easily opened in a variety of off-the-shelf database applications, including Microsoft Excel or Access.
