SmartTrak 100
Sierra SmartTrak 100 Premium Digital Mass Flow Controllers and Mass Flow Meters
SmartTrak 100 Series features unprecedented performance, user-friendly features, and flexibility. The 100 Series gives users the world’s most linear sensor, smoother valve performance, more robust electronics and even more control over a wide range of functions. The result is a series of mass flow meters and controllers that demonstrates premium flow instrumentation which is easy to use.
The 100 Series is designed so that the physics are correct. Excellent performance results from a patented, inherently linear Laminar Flow Element (LFE) design, advanced platinum sensor technology, and Sierra’s proprietary frictionless hovering control valve.
The 100 Series is available with an innovative and user-friendly Pilot Module, a front-mounted or hand-held control device that allows users to Dial-A-Gas, change flow rate, modify engineering units or reconfigure the instrument. With the Pilot Module, the user can set zero, span, and full scale for each of the 10 different gases independently to accommodate unexpected application or system design changes.
For the ultimate in performance, flexibility and value, SmartTrak is the smart choice.

Calibration – NIST-traceable
The SmartTrak 100 must be carefully calibrated for each gas to be monitored and metered. Sierra is one of few manufacturers today that perform a detailed 10-point NIST-traceable primary standard calibration across the entire mass flow range with calibration system accuracies as good as +/- 0.15% of reading.
Communication – Human & System Interface
Technicians can easily and quickly configure the SmartTrak 100 in the field using the intuitive menu system or remotely using our free software on a desktop computer. The SmartTrak 100 can also be integrated into the network via standard protocols such as Modbus, Profibus and Foundation Fieldbus.
Capture –
Capillary Sensor
Technology
The heart of the SmartTrak 100 is a platinum-wound capillary sensor that directly
measures mass flow. Our patented laminar flow element eliminates non-uniformities
and conditions the flow for the capillary bypass where the mass flow measurement occurs.
Control: Precision Valve
The SmartTrak 100 controls the gas flow using a proprietary frictionless hovering valve, which allows the valve seat to assume the exact height above the valve orifice necessary to maintain flow to the set point
