Essentials for your production line - Process Management Systems

As well as pumps, we can supply and advise on several process management products which will help optimise your production line.

See our recommended products below:

INDUCTIVE CONDUCTIVITY SENSOR BY ANDERSON-NEGELE 

Inductive conductivity meter ILM-4

With the ILM-4, it is possible to directly measure the concentration of a medium that can effectively improve the CIP cleaning process and be economically advantageous. Suitable for product quality monitoring too.

Why add this inductive conductive meter to my production line?

• Saves water and time
• Saves time due to fast temperature response time
• Improves CIP time spent increasing efficiency
• Inline conductivity is cost-effective

Approvals:

FDA; 3-A

MAGNETIC-INDUCTIVE FLOW METER BY ANDERSON-NEGELE

The FMI Magnetic Inductive Flow Meter from Anderson-Negele is designed for highly accurate flow rate and volumetric measurement of fluids and pastes for customers from the food- and pharmaceutical industries. It has a measuring range of 0.1...10 m/s and operating pressure is 0.1.

Why add this magnetic-inductive flow meter to my production line?

High volume measurements due to Inductive flow

Long life span due to multi-proof and corrosion resistant

Superior accuracy ±0,2 % ±1 mm/s and reproducibility also with a low flow rate

Vacuum proof so pigging system can be cleaned with a flow meter in place, making it hygienic too

Approvals:

FDA; 3-A

CAPACITIVE LIMIT SWITCH BY ANDERSON-NEGELE 

NCS-11

The capacitive limit switch limits detection of media with low or no water content like syrup, fruit concentrates, alcohols and oils with a dielectric constant εr (Dk) ≥ 2. With a measuring range of Dk ≥ 20 and an operating pressure maximum of 10 bar.

Why add this capacitive limit switch to my production line?

• Alternative to vibration forks
• Compact size and easy to clean
• Extended measuring range
• Very quick response time
• Large number of process connections, e.g. CLEANadapt and tri-clamp

Approvals:

FDA; EHEDG; 3-A

TURBIDITY SENSORS: ITM-51, ITM-51-R BY ANDERSON-NEGELE

Anderson-Negeles' front-flush turbidity sensor is for low to high turbidities, with an IO-Link for media with a turbidity of 200… 300.000. We can offer sensors with different measuring methods for almost any application.

Why add turbidity sensors to my production line?

• Minimisation of resource losses
• Flex-hybrid: digital IO-Link and analog 4…20 mA in parallel
• Modular design: configurable from the low-cost, basic version to the high-end model
• Front-flush sensor: simplified pipe cleaning (pigging possible) ideal for media with adhesive fibres or particles
• Extended temperature and pressure range
• Independent to reflexions at small diameters or electro-polished
• High reproducibility and fast response time
• Selectable output value
• Active phase separation in production process, e.g. dairies
• Reduction of the water consumption and waste water treatment cost
• Minimisation of the duration of a CIP (cleaning process)
• No colour dependency

L3 PRESSURE AND LEVEL TRANSMITTER BY ANDERSON-NEGELE

Anderson-Negeles' L3 Pressure and Level Transmitter has been designed to measure process pressure or hydrostatic level in hygienic process applications.

Why add a pressure and level transmitter to my production line?

• Improved temperature compensation
• High accuracy also with turndown up to 1:10
• Accurate level measurement also in small containers and with rapidly changing process temperatures
• Modular design for individual configuration, with Smart Replace Design (easy component exchange in the field)
• Integrated tank linearisation with density compensation for high-precision output of volume or mass (kg, litres, percent)
• Easy adjustment of zero and span

HYGIENIC BUTTERFLY VALVES BY DEFINOX - DPX AND DPAX

Typically, you would see butterfly valves like this used for brewing, dairy production, food, chemical and cosmetics. The DPX & DPAX range of butterfly valves from Definox are available from DN 25 to DN 150,

Why add this hygienic valve to my production line?

• Reliable and economical technology
• Quick installation and removal
• Can be used anywhere, many different types of gaskets
• Low pressure drop
• Product flow without media retention

MIXPROOF VEOX with IO LINK BY DEFINOX

VEOX INNOVATIVE MIX PROOF VALVE

The VEOX Mixproof valve meets the strongest process technology requirements and is the ideal solution for Food, Brewery, Cosmetic processes.

The valve is fitted with two valve seats, each with a "floating" PFA seal in a particular slot that makes the valve extremely easy to clean.

When the valve opens, the "floating" PFA seal allows cleaning also in the track behind the PFA seal. 

The Mixproof valve is also available as a tank outlet valve which isolates the tank from the rest of the process.

The shape of the body and the valve seat ensures that the flow can be maintained with the same functions as floating gaskets.

Why add the Mixproof valve to my production line?

• Leak indicator for leakage between gaskets
• New seal ensures high performance and long life
• Fast, easy service
• Leak-free opening available
• Complete tightness with sliding gaskets avoiding product loss
• The elastomeric structure of the PFA seal also ensures that the surface is not porous and does not develop cracks, also highly resistant to chemical media.

PIGGING VALVES AND SYSTEMS BY DEFINOX 

Definox Pigging Valve:

The pigging valve and system has been developed according to hygienic guidelines for the high standards of process technology and based on the same design principle as Definox' other valves.

The main applications of a pigging valve are for the pigging system. 

Definox Pigging Systems:

Pigging systems are ideally suited for processes with high viscosity and fast hardening media, e.g. yoghurt, dressing, cheese, chocolate, toothpaste, etc.

Why add this pigging system to my production line?

• With the Definox pigging valve, you get a complete integrated valve solution.
• Easy maintenance and quick installation.
• The valves are particularly suitable for CIP cleaning
• Additional sources of contamination of valve and pipe system are eliminated
