FCI’s FLT93 Series circulate swap reliably displays the circulate and temperature of liquids, gases, and slurries. It is designed for pump wet/dry detection, the place sudden, unexpected reductions in media move rates can leave pumps susceptible to over-heating situations that shutdown course of strains and require troubleshooting and fixing. The SIL2 rated instrument is intended for heavy-duty, doubtlessly hazardous process trade environments and comes with a comprehensive listing of world safety approvals.
It has a no moving components design and presents a robust scheme for pump safety with its dual alarm capability. With Alarm 1, the switch detects a low flow scenario anyplace between 0.01 and 3 ft per second FPS (0.003–0.9 m per second MPS). This low circulate alarm is a pre-warning sign for the control system or operator who can then resolve to keep the pump operating or to close it down.
If an Alarm 2 occurs as a result of the feed line to the pump is running dry, this may be an emergency signal to close down the pump immediately as a outcome of the bearings now see gas instead of a liquid as a heat switch media. In such situations, the temperature of the bearings might rise very fast. Using a flow change prevents permanent damage to the pump’s bearings.
