Fluid Components International (FCI) solves flow and level measurement applications for industrial process and plant applications using patented thermal dispersion flow measurement technologies. With more than five decades of experience and the world’s largest installed base of thermal dispersion instruments, you can count on FCI to know your application and have proven solutions that will save you time and expense.

From off-the-shelf products to custom-engineered products and systems, FCI has the selection and an unequaled record of innovations to supply the optimal product for your application. From single-point to multi-point flow meters, from basic airflow to complex mixed, variable flare gas compositions, from water to the harshest of chemicals, FCI products will deliver superior accuracy, repeatability, and long-term reliability at the lowest installed cost.

FCI flow switches are electronic flow switches.  They apply thermal dispersion flow measurement technology to provide a highly accurate and repeatable flow rate to achieve a highly reliable and repeatable setpoint detection.  Depending on the model, they are applied in liquids, including water, hydrocarbons, oils, and air or gas flows.  We provide a wide range of product solutions to service applications in fluid temperatures up to 850°F/454°C, line sizes from 1/8 inch (3mm) to 60 inches (1500 mm) and larger, global agency approvals for Div.1/Zone 1, and Div.2/Zone 2 installations, SIL 1, SIL 2, process connections from threaded to flanged, IP65 to IP67 ratings, and more. Flow switch output selections include heavy-duty DPDT relays, hermetically sealed relays, open collectors, and 4-20mA.  Depending on the model, alarms/ trip-points are field configurable for flow, temperature, high or low, hysteresis, time delay, and more.

In addition to general-purpose models, certain models are specifically designed for applications in process analyzers and sampling systems.

When your flow switch application is best solved with an ultra-reliable, long service life and industrial-grade electronic instrument, we offer FCI’s solutions.

For plant conditions with limited piping straight-run or significant flow disturbances, Fluid Components International (FCI) ensures accurate and repeatable flow measurements using Vortab patented flow conditioners. Proven Vortab technology is widely recommended by industry experts, to be the single most effective solution for flow conditioning and flow straightening. FCI is the only thermal dispersion flow technology supplier authorized to provide Vortab flow conditioners with its products.
