BFM Pneumatic Monitoring
For Food, Chemical, Pharmaceutical & Mineral Processing Plants
Superior to traditional hose clamped canvas/cloth/rubber connectors 

 

Wherever you have a flexible connection in a live production system, if the connector is removed at any time, there is always a potential risk that hands can be placed near dangerous moving parts, such as rotary valves and rotating knives.  

Now you can have added peace of mind that you can monitor when a BFM® fitting is removed in these areas with the latest innovation developed by the team at BFM®: the Pneumatic Monitoring System.
