5853S is a Brooks Instrument 5800-S Smart-Series elastomer-sealed thermal mass flow controller for gas flow measurement and control. Official Brooks 5800-S documentation explicitly covers mass flow controller models 5850S, 5851S, and 5853S and places 5853S in the high-flow controller row paired with 5863S meter models. Gas calibration, full-scale range, fittings, pressure conditions, valve option, signal option, Profibus option, and customer 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 Oxygen. 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.

Function
Primary function
Measures gas mass flow with thermal sensing electronics and controls flow using an integral control-valve module
Flow
5853S N2-equivalent full-scale range context
Brooks 5800-S documentation lists the 5853S / 5863S row at 100 to 2500 ln/min full-scale range, referenced to normal conditions of 0 C and 1013.25 mbar
Pressure
5853S pressure rating context
Brooks 5800-S documentation lists the 5853S / 5863S row at 70 bar pressure rating, with PED module category dependent on connection configuration
5853S maximum differential pressure context
Brooks 5800-S documentation notes maximum delta P for 5853S is 20 bar
Performance
Flow accuracy context
Brooks 5800-S documentation lists +/-0.7% of rate and +/-0.2% full scale at calibration conditions, with +/-1.0% full scale for 5863/5853 flow rates above 1100 ln/min
Repeatability
Brooks 5800-S documentation lists +/-0.25% of rate
Rangeability and controllability
Brooks 5800-S documentation lists 50:1 rangeability within specified accuracy and 100:1 total controllability
5853S controller settling time context
Brooks 5800-S documentation lists model 5853S controller settling time as 3 seconds, with 1 second available on request
Environmental
Ambient and process-gas temperature context
Brooks 5800-S documentation lists both ambient and process gas temperature at 0 C to 70 C
Leak integrity
External leak integrity context
Brooks 5800-S documentation lists outboard helium leak integrity of 1 x 10^-9 mbar l/sec
Materials
Wetted materials context
Brooks 5800-S documentation lists stainless steel wetted construction with configured Viton, Buna-N, PTFE/Kalrez, or EPDM seals
Mechanical
Process connection context
Brooks 5800-S documentation lists NPT(F), tube compression, VCR/VCO downport, and DIN or ANSI flange options; the exact 5853S fitting must be verified from the configured model code and physical unit
Electrical
Main connector context
Brooks 5800-S documentation identifies a 15-pin D-type / Sub-D connector with gold-plated contacts for Smart TMF electrical interfacing
Setpoint and output context
Brooks 5800-S documentation lists selectable 0-5 Vdc, 1-5 Vdc, 0-20 mA, and 4-20 mA setpoint/input and analog flow-output contexts; the ordered signal option must be verified per unit
Controller power context
Brooks 5800-S documentation lists controller power as +15 to +28 Vdc or +/-15 Vdc depending on configuration, with current draw affected by Profibus and valve override use
Digital communication
Smart-Series communication context
Brooks 5800-S documentation lists RS-232 or RS-485 communication with selectable baud rates, and Profibus-DP up to 12 Mbit/sec on applicable configurations
Maintenance
5853S valve assembly caution
Brooks 5800-S documentation states the 5853S control-valve assembly uses an axially mounted main valve driven by a top-mounted pilot valve and instructs that the main valve should not be disassembled
Configuration
Configured-unit rule
Gas calibration, full-scale flow, fittings, pressure rating details, valve state, seal package, analog/digital interface option, Profibus option, and customer-specific suffixes vary by configured model code and physical nameplate
Applications
Application domain
Gas mass-flow control in semiconductor manufacturing, analytical instrumentation, laboratory, process, and industrial gas-handling systems
Compatibility
Verification boundary
Do not assume interchangeability with 5850S, 5851S, 5863S meters, 5853E, 5853I, SLA5853, or any configured Brooks unit without checking gas, range, fittings, signal option, pressure conditions, wiring, and calibration
