Thermal Mass Flow Meters
Thermal Mass Flow Measurement Metering
If you need to measure gas flow without needing to correct for temperature or pressure, thermal mass flow meters can be the best solution. A thermal mass flow meter measures the amount of heat that is transferred as the gas flows past a heated surface. They are ideal for low-flow applications requiring high accuracy with minimal pressure drop. Eliminating the need for separate pressure or temperature sensors reduces and simplifies installation.
Cross Company’s Process Solutions group can provide the thermal mass flow meters your application needs for reliable metering and process monitoring. That means that if you need to accurately measure gas flow, we can help.

Benefits of Thermal Mass Flow Meters
There are many benefits to utilizing thermal mass flow meters in your process application. Some of those benefits include
Direct Mass Flow Measurement
A big advantage of these meters is their ability to directly measure mass flow. Unlike volumetric flow meters (which require additional pressure and temperature compensation), thermal mass flow meters offer immediate readings.
Wide Application Range
Thermal mass flow meters can be used in a wide range of gas flow applications. This includes compressed air, natural gas, hydrogen, nitrogen, methane, and many other clean gases. This contributes to their wide industrial use.
High Accuracy
With cutting-edge sensor technology and precise temperature control, thermal mass flow meters offer high accuracy and reliability in flow measurement. They accurately measure gas flow rates, ensuring confidence in your data.
