Brooks Instrument Sho-Rate 1350E Variable Area Flowmeter
About this part
1350ENB7CFT1M is a configured Brooks Instrument Sho-Rate 50 / Model 1350E glass tube variable-area flowmeter. Official Brooks 1350E/1355E documentation provides the family-level flowmeter construction, accuracy, pressure/temperature, connection, control-option, and installation context. Exact external listings identify this configured code with a 0.5-8.5 L/h descriptor, but exact calibrated fluid, scale, tube and float code, valve/controller option, materials, seals, and process connection should be verified from the physical unit label and scale markings
Configurations vary. Verify the exact unit before choosing a replacement.

Integral control options
Standard integral flow control valve, NRS integral flow control valve, and 8800/8900 integral flow controller configurations are supported by the family documentation
Installation
Orientation
Install within 6 degrees of true vertical with inlet connection at the bottom end fitting
Configuration
Configured-unit rule
Tube, float, direct-reading scale, valve or controller option, end-block material, seal material, process connection, calibrated fluid, and flow range must be verified from the unit label and scale markings
Observed configuration
Exact-code listing context
Exact distributor, surplus, and stored listing evidence describes 1350ENB7CFT1M as a Brooks variable-area flow meter with a 0.5-8.5 L/h descriptor; no verified official exact-part document is currently available to treat that range as a universal model-wide specification
Applications
Application domain
Low-flow gas and liquid indication, purge flow service, panel-mounted rotameter applications, and configured flow-control assemblies
