Special pressure sensor monitoring a keg system
Requirement
Keg systems are used for cleaning of kegs. They belong to the so-called secondary systems, because there is no direct contact with the food. The pressure of the cleaning agent must be precisely monitored.
Implementation
The ifm pressure sensors of the PE series, specifically designed for this application, are resistant to aggressive chemical cleaning agents.
Customer benefits
The high-purity ceramic measuring cell in conjunction with an EPDM seal provides high chemical resistance. This assures overload-free operation and long-term stability. With the high switch point accuracy (0.5%) of the two independent set and reset points at minimum hysteresis (0.5%), these vacuum resistant sensors of the PE series offer good value for money in peripheral processes.
