Sensasta (Cynergy3) are pleased to announce the launch of the FLPV Series of Float Switches from our Level and Flow product line to our Global Distribution Network.
The FLPV is a flameproof vertical float switch range, with single or dual float, designed to give the user a long reach with a number of switching options, catering to a wide variety of system requirements. Manufactured in stainless steel 316L material, these ATEX and PED certified switches are suitable use in many aggressive liquids or hygienic applications.
Their industry standard process connection sizes give a quick and reliable method of installation:
• Dual switch point for high/low indication
• Stainless Steel 316L material
• Fast switching, allowing precise control
• High life expectancy
Wherever there is a need to detect the level of fluid there may be a requirement for a level switch. To list all areas where this is applicable to the FLPV is prohibitive. However, the FLPV will be used as either
a process control device or system protection device. The FLPV is a reliable and robust switch due to its design and more cost effective compared to its competitors.
Typical examples of usage include storage overfill protection, pump run dry protection, and max-min level control. The FLPV Series is a great solution to address these requirements:
• Power ratings 10 VA
• Fast switching, allowing precise control
• Switching Voltage 200VAC / 120VDC
• High life expectancy
• 10 Bar Pressure rating

Sensata is pleased to announce the Cynergy3 FSU Series Flow Detection Switch.
FSU Series switches have industry standard process connection sizes (push fit or NPT thread) that give a quick and reliable method of installation. The FSU Series of pre-set switches uses a reliable and robust reed switch design for operation. This family is NSF-61 certified and therefore meets the stringent requirements for the control of equipment that comes in contact with potable water.
These flow switches are designed for use in liquid flow systems at pressures up to 10 bar and temperatures up to 85ºC. The switches are supplied with a standard wire length and flow rate set points, but can be customized to suit customer needs.
Why the FSU?
Wherever there is a need to detect the flow of fluid there may be a requirement for a flow switch. To list all areas where this is applicable to the FSU is prohibitive. However the FSU will be used as either a process
control device or system protection device. The FSU is compact, reliable and has very little pressure drop across the switch due to its design, and more cost effective compared to its competitors.
Typical examples of usage are, heater element protection, pump run dry protection, server room cooling flow failure detection or industrial or domestic water supply leak detection.
Applications:
- Circulation pump protection
- Leak detection
- Flow sensing
- Mains water control
- Dispensing Equipment
- Cooling system for electronic equipment (Laser Heads, Welding machine, X-Ray Tubes, Semiconductor Equipment)
- Processing Equipment, Water Purifications and Filtering, Distilling
- Presses, Rotating Equipment, Conveyors, Machine Tools, Robotics
Features:
• NSF-61 approved
• Power ratings 25 VA
• Wide connection range
• Fast switching, allowing precise control
• Compact in-line design
• High life expectancy

Sensata Technologies, an industrial technology company and a leading provider of sensors, today announced the availability of the new ACW4 Single Turn and TCW4 Multi Turn Absolute Hall Effect Sensors, which feature an over-molded, two-part modular construction that provides engineers with exceptional design flexibility.
The sensing electronics are encased in a thermoplastic polyamide shell while the separate activating magnet is external to the sensor assembly. This modular architecture results in a compact package of only 50mm in diameter by a maximum 24mm thick that allows designers to easily incorporate the ACW4 and TCW4 sensors into both new and existing systems. An over-molded housing completely encapsulates the electronics and seals the cable entry from exposure to the elements, making this IP67-rated sensor an ideal solution for robotic, industrial, manufacturing and material handling applications where dusty or wet conditions are common.
To help save time and cost, Sensata offers a variety of engineered magnet holder accessories that developers can use instead of designing and testing their own. A variety of output types are available to ensure that the ACW4 or TWC4 sensors can interface with the most common controllers. Unlike typical Hall effect sensors, which rely on a shaft to operate, there are no moving parts in contact with each other; eliminating any potential wear or misalignment.

SIL3 Functional Safety Incremental Encoders
With a robust and reliable design resulting in a wide range of secure products, which can be used in several types of configuration.
Any automated system potentially poses a risk to people, property or the environment. For this reason a number of safety measures have been taken. Safety standards have been created with one thing in mind: limiting risk.
With these standards as a framework, functional safety can, after a risk analysis, provide appropriate protection. Hazards are anticipated during the system design phase and are dealt with before they occur. These standards have evolved to increase the safety level and have been applicable since 2012.
Features
• Usable up to SIL3 and Cat.4 / PLe according to IEC 61508 / EN ISO
13849
• Suitable for safe motor feedback according to IEC 61800-5-2
• Robustness and excellent resistance to shock and vibration
• High protection level: IP65
• High temperature performance –20°C to +85°C
• Power supply 5Vdc or 11/30Vdc
• Digital TTL/RS422 or HTL or sine/cosine 1Vpp output
• Resolutions up to 2500ppr
• 58mm encoder, solid shaft 6mm, 9.52mm or 10mm (DSM5H), and
