‘Membrane Switches’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Process technology installed at biodiesel refinery from Flow Line Options, which we summarised at the time by saying "Flow Line Options has supplied Smart Fuels, an alternative-energy company, with process measurement and control solutions for its new biodiesel facility in Fruitland Park, Florida.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release CPS launches Corob First 70 automatic dispenser from CPS Color: "CPS Color, a supplier of advanced tinting systems, has launched the Corob First 70 automatic dispenser.".
 
In November 2009, we covered the news from Endress+Hauser - take a look at Liquiphant accurately measures liquid levels which says: "Endress and Hauser's Liquiphant is a vibrating level switch for accurate limit detection and point level-measurement of liquids.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from EMS, Viscotec devises drive solution for dosage units, as well as Ethernet I/O range cuts costs in remote monitoring from Amplicon, and Minitec releases News 2009 brochure from MiniTec UK.
