Brooks Instrument 5866RT Pressure Controller/Flowmeter

About this part

5866RC1A1C4R2VA is a configured Brooks Instrument 5866RT-family pressure controller/flowmeter identifier observed in Sonisys auction records and external semiconductor surplus inventory. Official Brooks 5866RT documentation identifies the platform as a remote-transducer electronic pressure controller/flowmeter that controls upstream or downstream pressure while measuring mass flow through the control valve. Exact gas calibration, flow range, valve behavior, seal package, fittings, and pressure-transducer range must be verified from the physical unit label or build documentation because the official PDFs are family-level documents and do not name this complete configured code

Configurations vary. Verify the exact unit before choosing a replacement.

Specifications

Identification
Device typeRemote-transducer electronic pressure controller/flowmeter
Series familyBrooks Model 5866RT pressure controller/flowmeter
Configured model code5866RC1A1C4R2VA
Function
Pressure-control functionMaintains a desired upstream or downstream pressure by comparing a remote pressure-transducer signal to the setpoint and modulating the integral control valve
Flow-measurement functionMeasures mass flow through the control valve and provides a 0-5 V signal proportional to mass flow
Mass-flow-controller mode5866RT can be configured as a mass flow controller for calibration or test purposes
Pressure
Control architectureRemote pressure sensor input with adjustable integral PID control electronics and top-access tuning switches
Pressure-control range100:1 when used with a remote transducer that has a 0-10 V output
Pressure response timeLess than 0.8 seconds typical for a 0-100% command step with less than 2% pressure overshoot; actual response depends on system design
Remote pressure sensor compatibilitySuitable for pressure sensors with 0-5 V or 0-10 V output signals
Flow
Family flow rangeBrooks 5866RT data sheet lists configurable flow ranges from 0-3 sccm to 0-30,000 sccm nitrogen equivalent at SEMI standard reference conditions
Flow output signal0-5 Vdc, 1 kOhm maximum load
Flow accuracy+/-1.0% full scale including linearity at calibration conditions for 3-10,000 sccm nitrogen equivalent; +/-1.5% full scale for flow rates greater than 20 slpm
Flow repeatability+/-0.25% of rate
Controls
Pressure setpoint signal0-5 Vdc or 0-10 Vdc command, with 5 Vdc reference output available for setpoint generation
Valve overrideElectrically activated valve override is part of the 5866RT control platform
Electrical
Electrical connector15-pin D-connector, DA-15P
Power requirement, normally closed valve3.5 W; +15 Vdc +/-5% at 35 mA and -15 Vdc +/-5% at 180 mA
Power requirement, normally open valve10.5 W; +/-15 Vdc +/-5% at 350 mA
Ratings
Operating temperature range32 to 150 degrees F (0 to 65 degrees C)
Pressure Equipment Directive contextBrooks data sheet lists PED 97/23/EC Sound Engineering Practice for the 5866RT platform
Materials
Wetted partsStandard wetted parts are 316L and 316L VAR stainless steel
Valve seat optionsStandard Viton fluoroelastomer or metal valve seat depending on configured model code
Seal optionsExternal and internal seals can be fluoroelastomer or metal, with Buna-N, Teflon, or Kalrez options depending on configuration
Connections
Standard mechanical connections1/8 in or 1/4 in stainless steel compression fittings on standard 5866RT configurations
Optional mechanical connections1/4 in VCO or VCR options; 5866RT(M) metal-sealed configuration uses 1/4 in VCR
Installation
Mounting orientationMay be installed in any position
Filter recommendationBrooks recommends an upstream in-line filter for elastomer 5866RT installations to help prevent foreign material from entering the meter
Applications
Application domainUpstream or downstream gas pressure control with simultaneous flow measurement, including vacuum-chamber pressure regulation, inert-gas feed control, process-vessel pressure control, and flow-related calibration or test service
Observed configuration
Observed gas and flow contextStored auction evidence and external surplus inventory describe this configured identifier with argon service and 3 SLM flow context; verify against the physical label before using as a technical specification
Observed connection and electrical contextExternal surplus inventory describes this configured identifier with VCR and 15-pin context; verify fitting size, connector, and pinout from the physical unit and Brooks documentation
