Honeywell has signed an agreement with Magnetrol International Incorporated, a supplier of level and flow measurement equipment. When announcing the partnership, the companies said that Magnetrol’s expertise in safety and compliance will enhance Honeywell’s existing terminal market product portfolio.

The new partnership will involve Magnetrol’s spillage prevention and tank overfill protection products incorporated into Honeywell Enraf Safety Solutions’ Alarm Scout service group, ensuring Honeywell customers are able to operate terminals safely and comply with increasingly stringent regulation and environmental standards.

The Alarm Scout product portfolio is designed to allow users to automatically collect performance data and be warned of system trouble spots. According to the companies, the partnership is a further step towards bringing Honeywell customers an all-encompassing safety solution. The enhanced instruments will be available from March 2012.

Magnetrol’s Chief Operating Officer, John Heiser, said, “Not only is it of utmost priority to ensure workers are able to operate within a secure and safe environment, it’s also important that equipment reduces plant downtimes and increases efficiencies.

"By partnering with Honeywell Enraf, we can combine our understanding of the process market along with Honeywell’s reach into the terminal market to spread this message and improve industrial safety and preparation for future events.”

“Increased awareness of the regulations protecting workers and the environment has led to a drive in the adoption of process safety solutions in recent years,” said Tony Tielen, Vice President and General Manager, Engineered Field Solutions, Honeywell Process Solutions.

“We partnered with Magnetrol due to their expertise and market knowledge in the process safety industry. Enhancing our products using Magnetrol technology will bring significant benefits to our customers looking to apply this awareness in the working environment.”
