AS-FT Flow Transmitters
SummaryFCI provides flow transmitters that include a
thermowell mounted sensing element and integral or remote
electronics that accurately indicate flow rate at the sensing
location. The flow element is directly installed into piping or
ducting on commercial and military aircraft, spacecraft, vehicles
and marine applications.
Please complete and submit the attached Application Data Sheet or
contact FCI’s Field Representative in your area to receive a
technical quotation for your Flow Switch application.
