SMD is a technically driven
design and manufacturing firm dedicated to helping customers
solve their toughest sensing and measurement problems. SMD's
talented staff has been designing sensors to measure force,
pressure, temperature, weight, torque, liquid level and many
combinations of these since 1978.
The company has grown and
prospered by bringing its strong engineering knowledge to
bear on customers' biggest sensing problems in medical, transducer,
instrumentation and measurement markets. Building on its success
at providing complete and innovative solutions to its customers,
SMD has developed a complete line of float level switches.
SMD Float Switches can be
designed to sense liquid levels at a fraction of the cost
of other technologies and provide years of dependable service.
These switches range from low cost (as low as $5, Euro 5)
single-point plastic products to customized stainless steel
multi-level switches for high temperature and low specific
gravity fluids. The company offers a broad diversity of specifications
from high pressure options to 100 Watt contacts. SMD designed
float switches are simple to install and provide a discrete
switched output up to 3A and require no special electronic
interface. For higher power load applications, SMD float switches
can be combined with suitable interfaces to switch up to 200A.
SMD's extensive sensor background
and dependable supplier base enables it to meet many custom
design requests while minimizing costs. A flexible manufacturing
system allows quick turn around and/or large blanket orders.
SMD switches can be easily integrated into existing systems
or designed with custom features for special applications.
They can be incorporated into most existing tanks or pipe
fittings to provide pump or level control. Whether the customer
has a single monitoring or control station or large integrated
control system, SMD switches can be configured with features
to optimize installation and performance. SMD engineers can
help design a custom switch or modify standard products to
save you labor and assembly costs. We can also combine our
different sensor technologies, e.g. liquid level and temperature
or liquid level and pressure to reduce components and cost
of your products or systems.

The company will continue
to build its website with additional technical information
and application tools. Our philosophy is to give you, our
customer, all of the tools to choose a sensor as quickly as
possible. The website has been designed to download quickly
and with as little fluff as possible. Once you have an SMD
sensor we want to assure that your experience is positive
so please take advantage of the application tips.
On a corporate level, SMD
has and will continue to, re-invest a significant share of
its earnings in the business. The commitment to R&D creates
future generations of sensors and the manufacturing processes
to make them, while our capital expenditures ensure the availability
of our state of the art factory to deliver quality sensors
efficiently. More importantly, the company strongly supports
the education and training of its employees. Combined with
the continued outstanding efforts of the SMD team, these strategic
investments are intended to maintain and improve the company's
technology leadership position. |
