Abstract

A design of a liquid flow controller (LFC) for supplying liquid reagents to technological equipment using a differential pressure sensor is proposed. The results of LFC tests for regulating the liquid flow are presented. The possibility of regulating the liquid supply in the milliliter range with a relative error of less than 3% is demonstrated.
