Customer Introduction

A certain experimental instrument company, which develops various high-end experimental equipment and systems for universities, laboratories, and scientific research enterprises. The equipment and systems are mainly used in geotechnical engineering, materials science research, and scientific research teaching.

Operating Conditions Requirements

This experimental instrument company needs to integrate an experimental device for a customer, which requires a gas pressure control function. If a pressure controller is configured, the control pressure must be 15 MPa high pressure, 200 L/min high flow rate, and other partial operating condition requirements are also proposed.

The experimental instrument company stated that they consulted several domestic and foreign measurement and control companies, but none could generally meet these operating condition requirements. The company staff contacted Jingliang Technology, hoping to solve this problem.

Solution

The customer clearly only needs a pressure controller, but has not yet found a product that meets the operating conditions on the market. In order to accurately recommend products, Jingliang Technology staff communicated in depth with the customer's needs, and learned in detail about the equipment's use, medium, signal output, gas source pressure, and other information. At the same time, they promoted the customer to collect operating condition data and communicated with internal technology.

The customer finally sorted out the operating conditions and conveyed them to Jingliang Technology. The basic operating conditions are as follows:
Controlled Medium: Air
Pressure Control Range: 0~10MPa, gauge pressure
Control Ratio: 50:1
Gas Source Pressure: 15MPa
Cavity Volume: 105L
Corresponding Maximum Flow Rate: 200L/min
Signal: 4~20Ma
Communication Method: RS485
Connector: External thread M24*1.5 24° cone

The valve of the pressure controller is a core component, and different valves are configured for different application scenarios. After understanding, the customer also requires the controller to have pressure stabilization and pressure relief functions, and to support high-temperature operating conditions. To achieve this function, a double valve needs to be installed on the pressure regulator, and a split control valve must be used to meet the operating condition requirements.

Because this operating condition is relatively special, Jingliang Technology staff proposed a customized solution: based on the general model of Jingliang Technology ACU20PCD digital dual-valve pressure controller, add a split control valve, increase the maximum flow rate, and change the connector type, etc.

After completing the solution, the customized product was tested under operating conditions, and the results met the customer's actual needs, and the delivery was successfully completed.

ACU10FA


The ACU10FA analog mass flow controller boasts fast response and high accuracy. It offers a wide control range, spanning 5 SCCM to 30 SLM, with the ability to measure and regulate flow as low as 1 SCCM, making it suitable for controlling very small flow rates.

ACU10FD


The ACU10FD digital mass flow controller consists of a mass flow sensor, a laminar flow element, a flow control valve, and an amplifier control circuit. It uses digital signal input and output and features a short preheating time, small zero drift, and high reliability.

ACU10FDR


The ACU10FDR low differential pressure gas mass flow controller, equipped with a proprietary high-flow electromagnetic valve, is suitable for controlling mass flow in situations with minimal available system pressure. The low differential pressure ensures minimal impact on the system, enabling flow control under near-atmospheric pressure conditions and reducing system response time. We will customize the valve and PID control functions for you based on your application parameters to ensure that the product can achieve fast and stable control while maintaining low pressure loss.

ACU10FC


The ACU10FC differential pressure mass flow controller uses a differential pressure mass measurement principle with no thermal drift and no response lag. It can simultaneously display and output: instantaneous flow rate, cumulative flow rate, pressure, temperature, etc. When a control function is required, an electromagnetic proportional control valve and built-in PID control function can be added. Unlike thermal flow meters, the ACU10FC has no additional "specific heat capacity" error when using gas conversion coefficients. Therefore, even if the measured gas is different from the calibration gas at the factory, it will not affect the measurement accuracy.

ACU10P


The ACU10P series pressure controllers/gauges feature a straight-through design with a measurement range from 100 kPa to 10 MPa (both absolute and gauge pressure). Differential pressure transmitters are also available.
