The FLT93C insertion and inline type flow switch is specifically designed for use in sanitary and hygienic process applications. Its 20Ra finish, available with either mechanical polish or electro-polish finishing, is suitable for applications in food, beverage, pharmaceutical and other clean processes. FCI is the only thermal manufacturer providing temperature compensation to ensure set point accuracy for process temperatures that vary up to ± 100°F. The FLT93C is easily field-configured or factory preset, providing unparalleled flexibility, accuracy and stability for all multiple process sensing and switching requirements.
