FCI Short Form Catalog
Product News Monday, July 23, 2007: Fluid Components International (FCI)
New FCI Short Form Catalog Now Available With Detailed Technology and Application Information
Equipment designers, instrumentation, process control and plant engineers with challenging flow measurement applications in air, gas or liquids will find the new Short Form Catalog from Fluid Components International provides a complete overview of FCI’s flow meter, flow switch and level switch product lines—along with detailed flow sensing technology and applications information--in a single, handy quick-reference tool.
With over 40 years of flow instrumentation experience, FCI has earned its reputation as a worldwide leader in the design and production of flow, and level instrumentation. The company’s highly reliable products find wide applications in a variety of industries that include: chemical, electric power generation (nuclear and coal-fired), food/beverage, oil/gas, pharmaceutical, pulp/paper, water/wastewater and more.
FCI’s products are requested by name in some of the world’s most demanding environments for flow instrumentation. They are recognized for their precision accuracy and repeatability in harsh conditions, where their high performance ensures both end-product quality and operational safety. The company offers a broad range of solutions from off-the-shelf devices to custom-engineered systems.
Flow meters from FCI are available with either Coriolis or thermal dispersion mass flow sensors. FCI’s advanced flow meters combine precision flow measurement accuracy with a rugged design that is compatible with caustic, corrosive, humid and high temperature environments. They are highly reliable, easy to install, require virtually no maintenance and are designed for long-life.
FCI flow switches feature an advanced no-moving parts thermal dispersion flow sensor that makes them ideal for a wide range of point-level process applications. Their versatile design also allows them to measure flow or level or temperature. The company’s NuTec® flow switch is designed with a unique non-contacting flow element that completely separates the sensor from the process media, which makes it ideal in sanitary flow processes common to the food/beverage and pharmaceutical industries.
Custom designed flow and level sensors for OEM applications from FCI are ideal for use in a wide range of industrial equipment where monitoring, high/low alarming, metering, switching and totalizing are required. Suitable for air, liquid or gas applications, these devices feature advanced micro-electronics for direct mass flow measurement in a rugged, no-moving parts design that offers exceptionally high reliability and long-life.
Flow conditioners developed by FCI’s Vortab Company provide a low pressure loss solution to correcting flow profile irregularities that affect the accuracy of flow instrumentation. In today’s crowded plants, elbows, valves, blowers and other devices in the pipeline can disrupt flowing media, which reduces measurement accuracy. Vortab® flow conditioners eliminate these flow disturbances to ensure accurate data.
FCI calibrates its own flow instruments and today operates one of the industry’s leading flow analysis and calibration laboratories. All laboratory equipment is National Institute of Standards (NIST) traceable, as well as certified to ISO 9001:2000 and AS9000 compliant. The laboratory also meets MIL-STD-45662A and ANSI/NCSL-Z-540 requirements.
For more than 40 years, FCI has been a pioneer in the development of thermal dispersion sensors and more recently coriolis sensors for direct mass flow measurement in a variety of media. The company’s advanced technologies include mechanical design, advanced materials, metallurgy, electronics, communications and more.
