1179B/1479B/2179B/179BMass Flow Controller Safety InformationSafety Procedures and PrecautionsThe following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation ofthis instrument. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere inthis manual violates safety standards of intended use of the instrument and may impair theprotection provided by the equipment. MKS Instruments, Inc. assumes no liability for thecustomer’s failure to comply with these requirements.DO NOT SUBSTITUTE PARTS OR MODIFY INSTRUMENTDo not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized modification to the instrument. Returnthe instrument to an MKS Calibration and Service Center for service and repair to ensure that allsafety features are maintained.SERVICE BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLYOperating personnel must not attempt component replacement and internal adjustments. Anyservice must be made by qualified service personnel only.USE CAUTION WHEN OPERATING WITH HAZARDOUS MATERIALSIf hazardous materials are used, observe the proper safety precautions, completely purge theinstrument when necessary, and ensure that the material used is compatible with the wettedmaterials in this product, including any sealing materials.PURGE THE INSTRUMENTAfter installing the unit, or before removing it from a system, purge the unit completely with a clean,dry gas to eliminate all traces of the previously used flow material.USE PROPER PROCEDURES WHEN PURGINGThis instrument must be purged under a ventilation hood, and gloves must be worn for protection.DO NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ENVIRONMENTTo avoid explosion, do not operate this product in an explosive environment unless it has beenspecifically certified for such operation.USE PROPER FITTINGS AND TIGHTENING PROCEDURESAll instrument fittings must be consistent with instrument specifications, and compatible with theintended use of the instrument. Assemble and tighten fittings according to manufacturer’sdirections.CHECK FOR LEAK-TIGHT FITTINGSCarefully check all vacuum component connections to ensure leak-tight installation.OPERATE AT SAFE INLET PRESSURESNever operate at pressures higher than the rated maximum pressure (refer to the productspecifications for the maximum allowable pressure).11

Mass Flow Controller Safety Information1179B/1479B/2179B/179BINSTALL A SUITABLE BURST DISCWhen operating from a pressurized gas source, install a suitable burst disc in the vacuum systemto prevent system explosion should the system pressure rise.KEEP THE UNIT FREE OF CONTAMINANTSDo not allow contaminants to enter the unit before or during use. Contamination such as dust, dirt,lint, glass chips, and metal chips may permanently damage the unit or contaminate the process.ALLOW THE UNIT TO WARM UPIf the unit is used to control dangerous gases, they should not be applied before the unit hascompletely warmed up. Use a positive shutoff valve to ensure that no erroneous flow can occurduring warm up.12

1179B/1479B/2179B/179BChapter 1: General InformationChapter 1: General InformationIntroductionThe digital mass flow controllers of the 1179B series accurately measure and control the mass flowrate of gases. The type 179B of this series is a mass flow meter for mass flow measurement onlyand is completely metal sealed.Based upon an patented * MKS measurement technique, these instruments use a laminar flowdevice whose precise indication of mass flow is achieved through the use of a laminar bypasselement in parallel with a sensor tube. The 1179, 1479 and 2179 digital controllers use a PIDalgorithm which compares the flow signal with an external setpoint command, thus creating acontrol signal which is applied to a solenoid driven control valve to set the desired flow rate. Thecontrollers also feature in the analog mode the ability to accept TTL level commands to remotelyopen and close the control valve. The control valve is located at the outlet of the meter section,also inside the metal instrument housing. The metal cover plus the RF bypass capacitors virtuallyeliminate RFI and EMI interference.The flow signal as derived from the sensor and also an analog setpoint signal are digitalized.Therefore linearization, flow control and handling of all other signals and commands is operated bythe microcomputer, in both digital and analog versions of the B series. This provides best accuracyand optimizes the controller’s response and stability.The 1179,1479 controller and 179 meter have a three-inch footprint. The type 2179 has a positiveshutoff valve, pneumatically driven and close coupled to the controller outlet.Overview of VersionsTypeFunctionFeatures179BMass Flow MeterStandard unit, all metal sealed, full scale ranges from 5 to20 000 sccm1179BMass FlowControllerStandard unit, one elastomer seal, all other sealing metal, fullscale ranges same as Type 179B, fully closing control valve,override function1479BMass FlowControllerSame as 1179B but all metal sealed2179BMass FlowControllerSame as 1179B but with positive shutoff valve at outlet side*US Patent No 546191313
