Electromagnetic flowmeters carry the main burden of flow measurement in dairy operations and play a critical role in milk heating.

• Benefit from integrated temperature and conductivity measurement of Proline Promag H.
• Heartbeat Technology combines diagnostic, verification and monitoring functions for process optimizations.

One of the more challenging applications in thermal processing systems is the level control of the balance tank. The small tank sees rapid level and temperature changes.

Our expertise in the field

Hydrostatic level sensor are ideal for this application. Temperature compensated and with ranges down to 100mm H₂O, they set the standard for reliability.

• Use Deltapilot FMB50 with remote electronics. It also help you to reduce risk in the often harsh environment and cleaning cycles.
• Alternatively, the compact point level switch Liquiphant FTL33 for hygienic applications can be used.

To ensure food safety, the differential pressure across the regeneration stage must be maintained. Stability and trust in measurement is key.

Our expertise in the field

For this critical application, an electronic differential pressure measurement is recommended.

• Optimize your measurement using our innovative electronic dp Deltabar FMD72.

The microbiological stability of dairy products is crucial for their shelf life and quality, which is often regulated by law. However, heating milk also leads to contamination on the inner walls. This contamination affects the efficiency of the heating cycle and is a potential cause of product contamination. Therefore, controlling the fouling behavior throughout the heating process and the presence of product in the holding tube is key to process control and optimization of product quality.

Our expertise in the field

Our compact multiparameter instrument Liquitrend QMW43 is able to measure the buildup thickness and conductivity of media simultaneously. Installed in the holding tube of the pasteurization process, it can continuously monitor the formation and degree of buildup. This helps to decide if a cleaning process is necessary or if the production time can still be extended without affecting the product quality.

Regular maintenance and calibration ensures that the measuring instruments controlling critical processes remain in spec, which is essential to safeguard food safety and quality.
