Designed for rugged aerospace environments, the Model
AS-FS Flow Switch's standard operation pressure is up to 2000
psig [138 bar(g)], with higher pressure ranges available upon
request. The flow element is designed for freezing to frying
conditions: -65 to +350°F (-54 to +175°C) to meet the demands
of deep space exploration. The wetted portion of the
probe is hermetically sealed and is made of all welded Hastelloy
C-276 parts for NASA that were easily substituted for the
standard 316L stainless steel material. The flow element's
heavy-duty construction provides superior corrosion resistance
in liquid flow applications. It is available with a flanged
mounting with O-ring seal and can be provided with a variety
of military electrical connectors.
The electronics are hermetically sealed (welded) in an integral
enclosure. Power input is 19-32 VDC per MIL-STD-704. Standard

LLTEC Composite Material of Brazil and Rafael Advanced
Defense Systems of Israel recently signed a Memorandum
of Understanding (MoU) for cooperation on passive add-on
armor solutions, their maintenance, and life cycle support.
Rafael's Add-On Reactive Armor and Passive Armor defends
against a wide range of threats such as anti-tank rockets, small
firearms, AP projectiles, high-speed fragments of artillery,
mortars, and high explosives.
Under this MoU, ALLTEC and Rafael will cooperate on business
opportunities and projects for the supply of passive addon
armor solutions from STANAG Level 4 and above, its maintenance
and life cycle support for the Brazilian Ministry of
Defense and auxiliary forces.
The MoU's purpose is to achieve maximum local industrial
content and facilitate joint marketing and sales of Rafael's passive
add-on armor solutions, including maintenance and life
cycle support for Rafael's Products.
For over 30 years, Rafael's add-on armor protection solutions
have been in use by the Israel Defense Forces, US forces,
NATO countries, peacekeeping units, and other customers
around the world to effectively protect land forces. Rafael's
Add-On Reactive Armor and Passive Armor, which can be easily
installed or removed quickly according to mission needs,
defend against a wide range of threats such as anti-tank rockets,
small firearms, AP projectiles, high-speed fragments of artillery,
mortars, and high explosives.
ALLTEC's knowledge and experience in this field have positioned
it as a technological leader in the manufacture of ceramic
armored shields (add-on) in any shape and thickness.
ALLTEC has used this expertise to increase the level of ballistic
protection required by the Brazilian Army on the new
Wheeled Armored Personnel Carrier (WAPC) 'Guarani'. ALLAerospace

Intro
Cov
TEC was designated as a contractor to develop a full kit of additional
ballistic protection (add-on) to be attached to the
new WACP 'Guarani', including the stages of technological research,
manufacturing, proving ground tests, official certification
process, final assembly and camouflage painting of the
armored shields. This challenge has resulted in the acquisition
of deep knowledge and a mastery of technology to manufacture
armored ceramic shields (add-on) which have qualified
ALLTEC as the main supplier for that equipment to the Brazilian
Army.
Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd. designs, develops,
manufactures and supplies a wide range of high-tech defense
systems for air, land, sea, and space applications for the Israel
Defense Forces and the Israeli defense establishment, as well
as for customers around the world. Alltec, based in São José
dos Campos, SP, Brazil, specializes in the manufacture of composite
structures and parts, structural assembly, and thermoplastic
components.

outputs include an open collector (sink) and/or a filtered,
buffered op-amp (source) (<1 VDC [low flow] or >17 VDC [high
flow]). Electronic hysteresis is included to prevent undesired
switching when flow rates are in the vicinity of the set point.
This AS-FS meets multiple rigorous environmental and performance
industry standard specifications. They include EMI
and lightning protection of the electronics to MIL-STD-461
and RTCA/DO-160, as well as full qualification to MIL-STD810
and RTCA/DO-160.
FCI's thermal mass AS-FS Flow Switches are suitable for a
wide range of aircraft and spacecraft applications such as liquid
cooling systems, air management systems, cooling fan
failure alarms, RAM air flow failure alarming, fuel tank inerting
systems, and PACK and bleed air systems.
