molstic-S Mounting Systems
Key features
- S mounting system.
- Solutions for mounting molbloc-S mass flow elements, regulating operating pressure, and connecting devices.
- Includes a filter to protect smaller molbloc-S elements from contamination.
- Allows for single or dual molbloc-S element accommodation, enabling use of two ranges simultaneously.
- Outlets of dual molbloc-S elements can be combined for increased flow range capacity with a two-channel molbox1+.
Product overview: molstic-S Mounting Systems
A key benefit of its modular design is that molstic-S can be used for testing devices in either the upstream or downstream position. The optional, adjustable DUT stand (P/N 401934) accommodates large DUTs that do not fit on the molstic-S.
molstic-S is available in either 1/2 inch or 1/4 inch system plumbing sizes. The 1/4 inch size is dedicated to the molbloc-S elements designated 1E2-S and lower, and the 1/2 inch size is for the 2E2-S through 2E3-S elements. All molstic-S platforms come with integrated flow shut-off/metering valves. This allows for system leak testing and provides a means of flow control (if required by DUT type). Optional high resolution metering valve kits are available for use with the 1/4 inch molstic-S in order to obtain finer flow control capability.
molstic-S USAGE
Because molbloc-S operates in the critical flow regime, test devices that have flow control capability must be installed upstream of the molbloc-S in order to control flow.
Devices that are to be calibrated at atmospheric pressure are generally installed downstream of the molbloc-S. molstic-S is built modularly in order to provide this flexibility.
Inlet gas supply pressure regulation is vitally important in order to protect the molbox pressure transducers. Therefore, it is recommended that the molstic-S Supply Only molstic be used upstream of test devices that have flow control capability and that the pressure reducing regulator option be installed on the molstic-S when calibrating devices that operate at atmospheric pressure. An optional back pressure regulator can be installed on the molstic-S to provide control of an upstream DUTs downstream pressure.

Configuration notes
- Each molstic-S comes with 50 centimeters (20 inches) of clear PFA tubing in order to provide versatility in the connection of the device under test (DUT) and inlet supply plumbing.
- All molstic-S platforms come with integrated flow shutoff/ metering valves. This allows for system leak testing and provides a means of flow control (if required by DUT type).
- The 1/4 inch molstic-S platforms are designed to be used with the molbloc-S elements designated 1E2-S and lower. The 1/2 inch molstic-S platforms are designed for use with the 2E2-S through 2E3-S elements. P/N 401935 replaces the 1/2 inch molbloc-S inlet flange of the higher flow elements so that they can be used on the 1/4 inch molstic-S. This is only recommended for 2E2-S molbloc-S element with either calibration type, or the 5E2-S with the LP calibration.
- P/N 401936 replaces the 1/4 inch molbloc-S inlet flange of the lower flow molblocs so that they can be used on the 1/2 inch molstic-S. This is only recommended for 1E2-S molbloc-S element.
