Brooks Instrument Model 5848 In-Line Mass Flow Filter
About this part
5848A3V1 is an archive-observed Brooks Instrument Model 5848 in-line filter identifier used with mass flow meters and controllers. Official Brooks Model 5848 documentation confirms the in-line filter platform, available element ratings, 9/16-18 process connections, 316 stainless construction, pressure and temperature limits, and current model-code logic; however, the current official PDF names 5848B3V1 rather than the older/observed 5848A3V1 code, so the A/B base-code difference and physical O-ring condition should be verified from the unit label and OEM support records
Configurations vary. Verify the exact unit before choosing a replacement.
