Description AWM5101VN Honeywell  Airflow Sensor In-Line Flow Measurement AWM5000 Series Microbridge Mass Airflow Sensors feature a venturi type flow housing. They measure flow as high as 20 standard liters per minute (SLPM) while inducing a maximum pressure drop of 2.25N H2O. The microbridge chip is in direct contact with the flow stream, greatly reducing error possibilities due to orifice or bypass channel clogging. Rugged, Versatile Package The rugged plastic package has been designed to withstand common mode pressures up to 50 psi, and the small sensing element allows 100 gs of shock without compromising performance. The included ‘‘AMP’’ compatible connector provides reliable connection in demanding applications. On-board Signal Conditioning Each AWM5000 sensor contains circuitry which performs amplification, linearization, temperature compensation, and gas calibration. Figure 1 (Heater Control Circuit) and Figure 2 (Sensor Bridge Circuit and Amplification Linearization Circuit) illustrate the on-board electrical circuitry for the AWM5000 Series. A 1 to 5 VDC linear output is possible for all listings regardless of flow range (5, 10, 15, or 20 SLPM) or calibration gas (nitrogen, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, or argon). All calibration is performed by active laser trimming. FEATURES Linear voltage output Venturi design Remote mounting capability Active laser trimming improves interchange ability Separate gas calibration types: – Ar (argon) – N2 (nitrogen) or – CO2 (carbon dioxide)
