Brooks Instrument 5800E Series Mass Flow Controller
About this part
5853E is a Brooks Instrument 5800E Series elastomer-sealed analog thermal gas mass flow controller model. Official Brooks 5800E documentation explicitly names 5853E in the high-flow controller row paired with 5863E meter models. Gas calibration, full-scale range, fittings or flanges, valve option, pressure conditions, and customer-specific suffix details remain configured-unit details that must be verified from the physical unit label and calibration paperwork
Unit-specific configuration
Observed configuration
Historical listing records identify this part as 1000 SLPM. Exact gas, range, fittings, valve configuration, and communication interface must be verified from the physical unit label.
Configurations vary. Verify the exact unit before choosing a replacement.

Repeatability and reproducibility context
Brooks 5800E documentation lists 0.25% of rate
Response time context
Brooks 5800E documentation lists settling time under 3 seconds to within +/-2% full scale for a 0 to 100% command step
Pressure
5853E pressure rating context
Brooks 5800E documentation lists the 5853 / 5863 model row at 1000 psi / 70 bar standard pressure rating, with PED category dependent on connection configuration
5853E controller differential-pressure context
Brooks 5800E documentation lists minimum controller differential pressure of 7.5 psi / 0.52 bar below 500 lpm and 11.8 psi / 0.81 bar above 500 lpm, with maximum differential pressure context of 290 psi / 20 bar

Electrical
Electrical connection context
Brooks 5800E documentation lists a 15-pin male D-sub connector or card-edge connector for controller models, depending on configuration
Setpoint and output context
Brooks 5800E documentation lists 0 to 5 Vdc setpoint input and 0 to 5 Vdc output signal context for controller models
Power context
Brooks 5800E documentation lists +/-15 Vdc supply context, with power draw dependent on valve state and configured flow range
Mechanical
5853E process connection context
Brooks 5800E documentation lists 5853E fitting and flange configurations including female pipe thread, tube compression, VCO, VCR, ANSI flanges, and DIN flanges; the exact connection must be verified from the configured model code and physical unit
Configuration
Configured-unit rule
Gas calibration, full-scale flow, process connection, valve option, seal package, pressure conditions, and customer-specific suffixes vary by configured model code and physical nameplate
Observed variants
Stored auction gas/range contexts
Stored Sonisys auction titles include 1000 SLPM and air 250 SLPM configured-unit contexts; these are observed listing contexts, not model-wide official specifications
Applications
Application domain
Gas mass-flow control in chemical and petrochemical research, laboratory, analytical, fuel-cell, life-science, semiconductor, and industrial gas-handling applications
Compatibility
Verification boundary
Do not assume interchangeability with 5850E, 5851E, 5863E meters, 5853I, 5853S, SLA5853, or any configured Brooks unit without checking gas, range, fittings, signal option, wiring, pressure rating, and calibration
