Why pay for and install multiple sensors?
Let SMD Fluid Controls reduce your fluid
system costs and assembly requirements by combining sensing
technologies. With our engineering experience in Level, Temperature
and Pressure, SMD can design a custom sensor or combine standard
sensors to give your application multiple features while minimizing
tank intrusions and costs.
Level and Temperature
Most standard and custom SMD float level
switches can be assembled with a thermocouple, RTD or thermostat
switch.
Thermocouples - Ideal for interfacing
to existing meters, or where higher temperatures may exist.
Ceramic fillers can be used in place of standard potting to
provide level and temperature sensing to 250º C. These higher
temperature devices are ideal for fat food fryers and food
processing equipment.
RTDs - Resistive Temperature
Detectors, provide good accuracy and linearity at a low cost.
Good for general-purpose appliance use and medical applications.
Both thermocouples and RTDs can be easily incorporated in
full size and miniature products.
Thermostat Switches - These
by metal snap action switches can be used to provide good
temperature protection in most fluid systems. Thermostat switches
are designed to be normally open or normally closed and will
change state at a specified temperature. These slightly larger
devices require full size stems and an additional inch at
the bottom of the stem. |
