Introduction

Agilent CrossLab CS ADM Flow Meter Operation Manual 5

Introduction

The Agilent ADM flow meter is controlled with two buttons on

the front of the instrument directly below the screen, as shown

in Figure 1. The functions of these buttons are described in

this section.

Power/Mode button

The Power/Mode button is used to switch the flow meter on

and off, as well as to scroll through and select different

operational modes.

•To turn on the instrument, briefly press and release the

Power/Mode button.

•To turn off the instrument, press and hold the Power/Mode

button for three seconds.

•To scroll through the available modes, when the

instrument is on, briefly press and release the

Power/Mode button.

Notes, Cautions, and Warnings

NOTE

•The ADM flow meter cartridge is a calibrated device.

•Using the USB port to supply power does not recharge the

installed batteries.

•The ADM flow meter can also be powered by

rechargeable batteries, but the battery indicator may not

display correctly.

CAUTION

• Do not use the ADM flow meter in temperatures outside

of its specified operating range.

• The ADM flow meter should not be misused for

other purposes.

• The measurement calibration can be affected if the

instrument is exposed to temperatures above 50 °C for

extended periods of time.

• Please inspect the temperature label attached to the

inside of cartridge packaging to verify that your cartridge

has not been damaged in shipment. A gray circle is

acceptable, a black circle indicates that the cartridge

may have been exposed to an extreme temperature.

• Please contact Agilent Technical Support if your

cartridge is delivered with a temperature indicator

that is black.

• Do not use the flow meter to measure corrosive gases.

WARNING

• Use only a 5 V DC, 0.5 A USB power source and the

supplied USB cable to run this device.

• Do not use the ADM flow meter as safety equipment.

ADM Flow Meter

Principles of Operation

10 Agilent CrossLab CS ADM Flow Meter Operation Manual

Principles of Operation

The ADM flow meter provides continuous, real-time

measurements of dry gas flows, such as those used for gas

chromatography. Unlike bubble flow meters, the flow meter

operates without liquids, bubbles, or glass parts. When

activated, a solenoid actuated valve interrupts the gas flow

momentarily. The gas flow moves a diaphragm in proportion to

the flow rate. This movement is transformed by the flow

meter's electronics into a digital value, which is displayed on the

flow meter's screen. The flow meter provides two different

types of flow measurements: volumetric flow (mL/min) and

mass flow reported in standard cubic centimeters per minute

(sccm). Mass flow values are calculated from the volumetric

measurements by correcting for ambient temperature and

atmospheric pressure, and reporting the flow rate referenced to

0 °C and one atmosphere of pressure, using digital temperature

and pressure sensors installed in the mainframe of the

flow meter.

The flow meter uses a replaceable cartridge that contains all

parts subject to calibration. This eliminates the need to ship the

entire meter back to the factory to maintain its calibration. The

cartridge calibration is valid for a period of one year from its first

use. A new, calibrated cartridge can be ordered in advance, and

installed when necessary.

When the flow meter is powered on with a new cartridge

installed, the current date is written to the cartridge’s memory

based on the mainframe’s internal clock. Each time the flow

meter is turned on, the meter will compare the current date to

the initial turn on date of the cartridge. If the initial turn on date

is more than a year from the current date, the flow meter will

flash a notification to the user that the calibration has expired.

The flow meter will still function with an expired calibration. This

eliminates downtime, enabling you to keep working. See

Installing and Replacing the Cartridge on page 31.

The flow meter is powered by three AA alkaline batteries. Power

can also be supplied via the micro USB port located on the side

of the unit.
