Industrial Gas Mixer | FusionFlow IMX

Industrial Gas Mixer  – Overview

This high-flow industrial gas mixer is designed for percent‑level, high‑flow applications. The IMX gas mixing platform is ideal for larger, commercial‑scale operations. It creates accurate blends at combined flow rates ranging from 0 – 20 SLPM to 0 – 3200 SLPM. It has real‑time process control and gas delivery options for flow and pressure priorities. It is built for 24/7 operation in the most demanding commercial‑scale and industrial environments. It is housed in a heavy-gauge, 10” x 9” x 10” all‑steel chassis. Our MFCs control consistent, accurate gas mixtures. Individual channels are tuned to provide accurate mixes, outlet pressure control, and rapid responses to changing process conditions.

Description

Industrial Gas Mixer | FusionFlow IMX

TECHNICAL
Mixing type Dynamic mass flow using high-speed ΔP-based Alicat MFCs, controlled by a proprietary MixModule™ pressure-sensing device
Compatible gases¹ 49 selectable gas types, including user-configurable pre-mixes [see compatible gas table]
Mix accuracy As accurate as ±0.6% of the targeted mix percentage²
Available MFCs & full scale flow ranges (per channel)³ Ch. 1 and/or Ch. 2: NONE, 250, 500, 1000, or 1500 SLPM models
Ch. 3 and/or Ch. 4: NONE, 10, 20, 50, or 100 SLPM models
Minimum recommended flow rates (by MFC full scale range) 10 SLPM to 100 SLPM models: 1% of full scale
250 to 1500 SLPM models: 2% of full scale
Accuracy at calibration conditions for individual channels 10 and 20 SLPM full scale MFCs: ±0.6% of reading or ±0.1% of full scale, whichever is greater
50, 100, 250, 500, and 1000 SLPM full-scale MFCs: ±0.8% of reading and ±0.2% of full scale
1500 SLPM full-scale MFCs: ±2% of full scale
Repeatability (2σ) for individual channels 10 and 20 SLPM full scale MFCs: ±(0.1% of reading + 0.02% of full scale)
50, 100, 250, 500, 1000, and 1500 SLPM full-scale MFCs: ±(0.2% of reading + 0.02% of full scale)
Typical control response time for individual channels⁴ As fast as 25 ms; dependent on MFC model, flow rate, gas species, user plumbing, and back-pressure

¹Although the IMX is only a 4-ch. device, it can track up to 10 total gas types, allowing for premixed blends

²In ideal configuration and flow conditions

³Custom ranges in between standard ranges are possible

⁴Proprietary match-tuning procedure performed on all MFCs according to application parameters
