AMS Instrumentation & Calibration is distributing a new point level monitoring and control solution from Fluid Components International (FCI).

Suited to process and plant engineers, the FLT Series switch offers accuracy, dual trip points and relays, according to the company.

It also has a SIL 2 rating for ultra-reliability and full Ex agency approvals on the complete instrument.

Point level monitoring and control are necessary in many industrial processes to prevent over-filling or under-filling, as well as provide a reliable “empty” notification.

Accurate switching ensures continuous plant operation without interruptions that could lead to quality issues, safety problems, regulatory issues and higher costs.

The FLT Switch provides point level and interface sensing in liquid, gas, or foam, and suits heavy duty environments (FLT93S) and small process connections requiring a fast, responsive switch (FLT93F).

Applications include wet/dry detection, sump-level detection, high/low level alarm and control, interface control in separation vessels, foam and sediment interface control, and agitation detection.

The FLT also features built-in temperature compensation which ensures repeatable and reliable operation, even in extreme environments, such as those found in the high temperature chemical refining and other process industries.

Earlier this month PKN published an article that voiced industry concern over the speculation that Qenos might be closing its polymer manufacturing plants in Australia. Qenos has remained silent on the matter. The MD of Qenos customer Impact International, Aleks Lajovic, wants some answers.

Amcor, a global leader in developing and producing responsible packaging solutions, is the proud recipient of eight FPA Awards for innovative and sustainable contributions to the industry.

An impressive number of quality entries into the inaugural Hive Awards created a highly competitive line-up for judges to consider. The packaging category was one of the most strongly contested.
