Omniflex products achieve nuclear approvals

January 2015 Sensors & Transducers

With increasing reliance on ‘smart’ instruments in safety systems throughout the UK nuclear industry, Omniflex has announced that the Omniterm range of smart instruments has now been substantiated by Emphasis for use in the UK nuclear industry.

The Omniterm range now joins the complete Omniflex alarm annunciator range to have undergone Emphasis assessment for use in the UK nuclear industry.

What is Emphasis? Emphasis is an assessment program that was established after extensive research by the Control & Instrumentation Nuclear Industry Forum (CINIF) and was originally intended as a set of written guidelines but soon evolved into a software tool for assessment of smart instruments for the UK nuclear industry.
