SFC celebrates 25 years

Smith Flow Control (SFC) celebrates
twenty-five years of operation this
month, providing engineered safety
systems for hazardous valve operations
in the oil and gas and chemical
processing industries since 1985.

SFC, which continues to be
managed by its founders (pictured), is
responsible for introducing the
coded-card linear-key concept,
developing a range modular keyoperated
interlocks that regulate
operating procedures on host process
equipment. Typical applications
include every form of valve (including
motorised and instrument valves),
switches, vessel closures, access
guards, pressure and temperature
sensing systems and rail/road/sea
tanker loading systems.

SFC’s solutions in hazardous
processes reduce the scope for
operator error and help ensure safe
continuous plant operation.
