Restek ProFLOW 6000
Electronic Flowmeter

1.0 Introduction

Restek's ProFLOW 6000 flowmeter is specifically designed for use with gas chromatography (GC) systems. The
probe is applied directly to the gas flow stream, and the measured flow rate is presented on the LCD screen.
Units of flow are measured in mL/min.
This unit provides continuous real-time measurements of gas streams ranging from 0.50 mL/min to 500 mL/min.
Because the technology uses volumetric flow measurement, the unit is compatible with all laboratory gases.
CAUTION: Do NOT exceed maximum operating flow rates. Recalibration may be required if the unit
has been subjected to extreme flow rates.
Always use appropriate laboratory safety practices when operating this device. Wear laboratory
safety goggles when operating this unit.

NOTE: There are no serviceable parts in this unit. Opening the device—other than to change the batteries—or
tampering with the internal parts will void the factory warranty.
NOTE: To ensure accurate measurements and effective clearance of the flow gas from the unit, DO NOT
obstruct the vent holes on the back of the unit.
NOTE: Modifying the length of tubing can cause a shift in calibration.
