New AMF Series combines industry-leading 1000:1 turndown capability, predictive diagnostics, and digital connectivity in a footprint no larger than a standard Post-it Note pad
Brooks Instrument has announced the global launch of its new AMF Series Advanced Mass Flow Controller (MFC), an ultra-compact solution designed to deliver high-performance gas flow measurement and control for space-constrained industrial and research applications.
According to the company, the AMF Series features the smallest footprint in its performance class, measuring just 1 inch by 3 inches by 3 inches—approximately the size of a standard Post-it Note pad.
Despite its compact dimensions, the device combines precise gas flow control, fast response times, advanced diagnostics, and an industry-leading 1000:1 turndown capability.
The launch comes at a time when equipment manufacturers across biotechnology, energy, research, and industrial sectors are increasingly seeking compact instrumentation that can deliver higher levels of precision, automation, and operational reliability.
"Equipment designers historically have had to choose between compact dimensions and advanced capabilities," said Steve Kannengieszer, Global Marketing Director at Brooks Instrument.
The company stated that the AMF Series was developed to address the growing need for precise gas flow management as equipment becomes smaller, more complex, and capable of handling greater throughput.
Brooks Instrument believes the new controller is particularly well suited for pilot-scale and low-flow applications where precision and equipment miniaturization are critical.
Target applications include bioprocessing and laboratory-scale bioreactors, thin-film coating and vacuum deposition systems, carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS), hydrogen technologies, analytical instrumentation, university research laboratories, and industrial gas processing.
Joe Sipka, Business Development Director, Biotechnology, noted that biotechnology and related industries are increasingly adopting smaller-scale development platforms that require more sophisticated instrumentation. He said the AMF Series was specifically developed for micro-dosing and pilot-scale systems and provides digital insights.
