Monitoring the flow

A new flow switch/monitor from Fluid Components International has made its way to Australia, available through equipment distributor AMS Instrumentation & Calibration.

The Model FS10A Analyser Flow Switch/Monitor can be incorporated into gas and liquid process analyser sampling systems, and also features a SP76 adapter to support or integrate New Sampling/Sensor Initiative (NeSSI) standard compliant hardware.

For more than 20 years, the NeSSI has been an industry-driven effort to develop analyser and sensor standardisation.

As a NeSSI compliant device, the FS10A can be mounted onto a standard fluidic interface for modular surface-mount components. It can also conform to NeSSI Generation I, as well as being prepped for Generation II and III compliance.

The FS10A Analyser Flow Switch/Monitor is suited for ongoing monitoring of analyser sample flows, offering high integrity process analysis without interruption. Its LED display allows users visibility of flow rate trend, alarm status and power on/off options.

It can be used with most types of process and emissions sampling systems such as gas chromatographs (GCs), mass spectrometers, optical spectrometers, and photometers.
