Restek ProFLOW 6000 Electronic Flowmeter
Flowmeters that can measure flammable gases are becoming mandatory due to the increased use of hydrogen in chromatography. With its Ex rating, the Restek ProFLOW 6000 meter is designed specifically with explosive and flammable gases in mind.
GC and other gas flows
I have the precursor of this model, purchased many years ago. It has not lost its accuracy, was affordable, and gets a lot of use still. It's a must-have in any lab doing gas analysis.
