Hygienic, front flush turbidity sensor for media with a turbidity of 200…300.000 NTU equivalent in pipes from DN25 on.
- Active phase separation in the production process: Precise differentiation of product / mixed phase / water
- Minimisation of resource losses
- Frontflush sensor in compact and modular design
- Reduction of the water consumption and waste water treatment cost
- Minimisation of the duration of a CIP-cleaning process
- Glass-free sapphire optics
- 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 surfaces
- No color dependency (wave length 860 nm)
- High reproducibility and fast response time
- Selectable output value (%TU, NTU, EBC)
- Extended measurement range: 200…300.000 NTU equivalent
Application examples
- Phase separation products (whey-cream-milk)
- Separator control
- CIP-return line (monitoring of pre-rinse water to product leftovers)
- Automation of the yeast harvest and the separator monitoring in breweries
- Quality control
- Leakage control of filters, gasket, valves
Further Information:
- The ITM-51 is compatible to the antecessor ITM-3.
