Flow and Liquid Level Interface Switch Receives SIL-2 Compliance Rating from TUV NORD

Built to comply with process industry precision requirements for flow, level and interface sensing in liquid, gas or foam, Fluid Components
International`s (USA) innovative FLT93 Switch Series is now rated Safety
Integrity Level (SIL) 2 compliant. The SIL-2 compliance rating is designated in the failure analysis report with FMEDA techniques by testing laboratory TUV NORD CERT GmbH. The FLT93 Switch Series has been classified as Type A subsystem in accordance to IEC 61508-1 with a hardware failure tolerance of 0. The Probability of Failure on Demand (PFD) meets SIL-2 capability standards.
For process and plant engineers in all industries, safety considerations for people and facilities are a crucial factor when specifying process technologies. SIL ratings provide a key
assurance of confidence that the safety rated equipment has been tested and shown to prevent dangerous failures and to control them in the event they occur. FCI`s new SIL-2 safety compliance ensures its customers that the third-party testing organization (TUV NORD)
has tested the FLT93 Switch Series and when the product is in use, the process risk is reduced to the designated level. FCI`s customers can rely on the company to continually improve the
safety and reliability of all of its solutions.
FCI`s advanced thermal mass flow switches and flow meters are recognized worldwide for their precision flow measurement, high reliability in rugged operating conditions, low maintenance, long-life and low cost-of-ownership. Their highly intelligent microprocessor based
designs feature a no-moving parts thermal mass flow sensor, which makes them ideal for a broad range of industries including: chemical, energy and power, food/beverage, oil/gas, pharmaceutical, water/wastewater treatment and more.
