Abstract
A mass flow meter probe having an upstream tube and a downstream tube that extends into a main gas flow conduit is disclosed. The sensor for the mass flow measurement is located in the bore of a housing connecting the tubes and by incorporating the sensor into a valve that can block flow between the tubes, the mass flow meter can be calibrated in the field. The probe can be used as differential pressure device for flow measurments, when the valve is closed. A means for cleaning pressure ports is also disclosed.
