How To Comply With NFPA Code 30 Requirements For Level And Flow Detection

National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)® Code 30 defines safeguards to reduce the hazards associated with the storage, handling, and use of flammable and combustible liquids. In the USA, NFPA codes are recognized and enforceable under OSHA and many state and local regulations.

Within Code 30 there are 12 sections which identify and stipulate the use of a level or flow switch. FCI is the world’s leading manufacturer of heavy-duty, ultra-reliable thermal dispersion level and flow switches. FCI switches carry agency approvals (FM, FMc, ATEX, IECEx) for installation and application in hazardous gas locations, have MTBF rating of 190 years, and have been independently evaluated to comply with SIL 2.
