Overview

MEMS Thermal Mass Flow Sensor Technology

Proprietary MEMS mass flow sensor technology provides accurate in-line flow measurement with the availability of customer-specified packages. The sensor is manufactured using Siargo’s unique MEMS process that ensures high reliability. The sensors can measure air flow as low as 5 mm/sec and as high as 75m/sec. Depending on the applications, the sensors can be used to measure mass flow, volume flow or media flow speed. The specially designed circuitry provides amplification as well as small signal processing capability.
The flow sensors utilize the thermal mass flow technology using energy balance design. Unlike the other MEMS flow sensing technologies, Siargo’s flow sensors have multiple sensors integrated on a single silicon chip. The surface of the chip is passivated with ceramic materials of high thermal conductivity to ensure the sensor’s sensitivity. Siargo’s sensor package has its flexibility that significantly expands the applications of the technology.

Working Principle

Working Principle

Proprietary MEMS flow meters utilize the insertion sensing approach that can measure gas flows in a large pipe. The MEMS flow sensor integrates a micro heater, local temperature sensors and environmental temperature sensors onto a single package. At the no flow, a stable temperature field ( distribution) around the micro heater is maintained. When the flow media passes through the sensor chip, the temperature field will be forced to change as the flow media will carry away the heat from the micro heater causing the redistribution and variation of local temperature. Such a change of the local temperature will depend on the media’s mass as well as the media’s flow speed. The sensors integrated on the silicon chip will then measure such temperature redistribution, and the carefully designed signal process circuits and the algorithm provided by the smart control software can then precisely measure the actual media mass flow. This mass flow can then be translated into volume speed as well as accumulated volume media consumption at the specific conditions set at the calibration.
For the MEMS thermal mass flow sensor technology, the heater on the chip has a dimension at the micrometer scale. In the insertion configuration, the air convection due to the onset of the micro heater is negligible, and hence the “chimney effect” concerned for most of the “hot-wire” thermal mass flow meters will not be applicable to the MEMS thermal mass flow sensor technology with this package.

Volume Flow vs. Mass Flow

For the gas metrology using mechanical meters, the volume flow rate is adopted. The volume rate nevertheless may not be a good indicator for industrial processing technology as the processing gas quality depending vastly on the mass, not on the volume. In addition, the volume of gas will change with different gas temperature and pressure. With the MEMS thermal mass flow meter, it is possible to measure the “quality” (mass) of the gas directly, and at real time. The mass flow rate will not depend on temperature and pressure, and hence it accurately measures the actual mass consumption. In addition, the conversion of the volume rate to the mass rate is readily available by referencing to a standard condition such as at 20°C and 101.325 kPa.

For the battery meter, there are three terminals in the back cover. (see Fig. 7 3)

  1. When the above processes are completed, the Fig. 8-l(see page 15) should appeared on the LCD screen; W Attention: Because of the high sensitivity of the meter, the displayed real time flow rate and accumulated volume value might be non-zero as any air flow passing through the pipe attached to the meter will be sensed and displayed, regardless if the meter is connected to the pipeline except that there is absolutely no air flow in the pipe attached. Use your hands or a tight cover to close both ends of the pipe of the meter, the top line display of the real time flow rate should decrease and become zero, and the accumulated volume should remain a constant value.
  2. Once the above steps have been performed and no errors are found, it indicates that the meter is working properly. Then power off the meter by disconnecting the DC cable from the DC outlet, and it is ready to be installed onto the pipeline. (For battery powered meter, this step can be skipped)
Installation Procedure of In-line Meters
