Food & Beverage

The sensors needed for Food and Beverage industries are not just limited to sanitary 3A solutions, but also include industrial sensors for the non-sanitary sections of the plant.

In addition, caustic solutions may be used to clean out the lines. These caustic solutions require sensors that are up to the challenge.

We offer a variety of 3A certified products to suit your application needs.

3A sensors listed here include : Temperature – Level – Flow

Sanitary temperature probes with integrated electronics, and local or remote indicators with LED or LCD displays. A wide variety of configurations available. All manufactured here in Canada under the strictest of 3A standards, and 3 options of surface finish.

Have a processes that cannot be stopped to verify if the temperature transmitter is within specifications? Down time would be costly?

Solution : Dual Stem Sanitary Sensor with Connection Head and Integral Test Well offers temperature validation in real time. A quick access port to the test well is available for inserting a reference standard. When not in use, a cap seals the test well to NEMA6/IP67 compliance.
