Brooks Instrument TR Series Thermal Mass Flow Controller
About this part
5850TR/FA1B20 is a configured Brooks Instrument 5850TR/F TR Series thermal mass flow controller identifier observed in auction evidence. Official Brooks 5850TR documentation supports the model-family identity, MFC function, 15 VDC and 24 VDC manual context, configurable model-code structure, and family-level performance specifications. Treat gas, range, seals, fitting, cable, power, approval, calibration, and service compatibility as unit-specific details that must be verified from the physical unit label and calibration records
Configurations vary. Verify the exact unit before choosing a replacement.

Specifications
Identification
Configured part identifier
5850TR/FA1B20
Model family
Brooks Model 5850TR / TR Series MFC
Device type
Elastomer-sealed thermal mass flow controller / mass flowmeter-controller platform
Official legacy status
Brooks legacy products documentation identifies Model 5850TR as an elastomer-sealed thermal mass flow controller and provides separate 15 VDC and 24 VDC installation manuals
Function
Control architecture
Brooks 5850TR documentation describes the controller as a gas mass-flow measuring and controlling device with a flow sensor, control valve, and integrated electronic control system
Configuration
Configured-unit rule
Gas, full-scale flow, valve type, operating pressure, I/O type, connector, fitting, cable, power supply, approval, seal material, OEM code, and calibration details vary by full model code and unit label
Model-code context
The Brooks 5850TR 15 VDC manual includes a 5850TR/F mass flow meter and controller model listing with option positions for seals, valve type, electrical connection, mechanical connection, interconnection cable, and power input; no verified official document is currently available names or fully decodes the exact FA1B20 suffix
Performance
Accuracy
Brooks 5850TR manuals list +/-1% full scale accuracy including linearity measured at calibrated conditions
Repeatability
Brooks 5850TR manuals list +/-0.25% full scale repeatability
Rangeability
Brooks 5850TR manuals list 50:1 rangeability
Flow
N2-equivalent family flow range
Brooks 5850TR manuals list full-scale ranges from 10 mln/min to 20 ln/min based on nitrogen equivalent; the exact configured gas and range must be read from the unit label or calibration records
Electrical
Flow output and setpoint context
Brooks 5850TR documentation includes 0-5 VDC flow output/setpoint input; the 24 VDC manual also documents 0/4-20 mA options depending on model code
Power supply versions
Brooks manuals cover +/-15 VDC and +24 VDC configurations; power input is configuration-dependent
Pressure
Operating pressure context
Brooks 5850TR documentation lists normally opened and normally closed 100 bar valve versions, with higher-pressure variants depending on configuration
Environmental
Ambient/gas temperature
Brooks 5850TR manuals list ambient/gas temperature range of 0 C to 65 C
Leak integrity
External leak integrity
Brooks 5850TR manuals list outboard helium leak integrity of 1 x 10^-6 mbar l/s
Materials
Wetted materials context
Brooks 5850TR manuals list stainless steel wetted parts with Viton, PTFE, Buna-N, or Kalrez depending on configuration
Mechanical
Mechanical connection options
Brooks 5850TR documentation lists options including 9/16-18 UNF, tube compression, VCR, VCO, NPT, 6 mm tube compression, and BSP-style connections depending on configuration
Observed configuration
Auction identity context
Stored auction evidence and one listing records identify this exact configured identifier as a Brooks 5850TR Series mass flow controller; no verified available evidence is currently available states the unit gas or full-scale range for FA1B20
Applications
Application domain
Semiconductor gas handling, analytical equipment, environmental instrumentation, process gas, and other manual, electronic, or computer-controlled gas-flow applications
