Flowmeter Krohne 1500 for food use

Flowmeter Krohne for food use

The electromagnetic flow sensor is specifically designed to stay clean and sterile in compliance with the most stringent demands prevailing in the food & beverages and pharmaceutical industries. There are no crevices, gaps or blind spots and the flow sensor offers full CIP/SIP possibilities. The flow sensor is conform FDA food contact material requirements, for all wetted materials and is certified in accordance with EHEDG and 3A.

The flowmeter provides easy installation and commissioning and is available with the flow converter seperate, or mounted directly on the flow sensor.Therefore it can be installed in places difficult to access due to for example high temperatures or vibrations. The converter is also available in a stainless steel housing for applications when for example regular cleaning procedures with aggressive cleaning agents, may attack a standard polyurethane coating.

The flow meter provides high accuracy in measuring fluid flow, both for mixing and dosing, even with intermittent flows. The device continues to provide optimum performance even with low conductivity compounds such as glucose or fruit juice concentrates. Thanks to its reinforced coating, the litre counter is an optimal solution even under high temperature or vacuum conditions. The certified hygienic construction is also available for large diameters up to DN150, in accordance with the industrial production of beer, wine, milk and other beverages.

Characteristics:

• Robust stainless steel housing for hygienic and aseptic operation
• PFA liner reinforced with embedded stainless steel grid for vacuum resistance
• High form stability for good accuracy even with high pressures
