In less than two years, SMD Fluid Controls has three times been named a major player in the global float switch marketplace. Most recently, Technavio’s report, Global Float Switch Market 2017-2021, named SMD Fluid Controls as one of the “key vendors in the global float switch market.” The report’s comprehensive analysis also predicts a growing float switch market through the year 2021, owing to low installation and maintenance costs and increasing reliance on automation in several key industries.
Horizontal float switches and vertical float switches are expected to account for the biggest product gains in the global market. The major end-users are expected to be in process industries such as oil and gas, water and wastewater, and chemical processing.
Congratulations to SMD staff in both the United States and the United Kingdom for their ingenuity, creativity, and hard work!
Products and Services Offered by SMD Fluid Controls
In addition to numerous horizontal and vertical float switches, SMD Fluid Controls offers a variety of liquid level sensors.
- Ultrasonic Liquid Level Sensors: These continuous non-contact level sensors are top-mounted and utilize ultrasonic sound pulses to calculate liquid levels.
- Optical Liquid Level Sensors: Optical sensors use infrared light and are ideal for point-level detection in applications where moving parts are problematic.
- Submersible Liquid Level Sensors: These hydrostatic pressure sensors can be rigged with extremely long lead lines for continuous level measurement even in extremely deep vessels, such as well shafts.
For applications where standard offerings won’t meet a client’s needs, SMD Fluid Controls also offers custom design, fabrication, and OEM manufacturing services.
