While the trend for large manufacturers is to automate a new plant in its entirety, small and medium-sized food and beverage processors rarely have the funds to automate their plants, turning them into lights-out facilities. Even some tier-one processors may find areas in certain operations where it may not make sense to over-automate.

Used in large-scale meat, fish and food processing applications, Wyze Temp wireless sensors track temperature, weight, airflow and pH in real time.

You can’t afford to wait to get on the network.

Available with an analog output, the Banner Q4X laser distance sensor is used for fill level indication, part positioning, roll diameter, loop control and thickness/height verification; the sensor offers continuous measurement and sensing performance, in addition to resolutions as small as 0.15mm.

4B Components P800 Proxswitch proximity sensors have solid state relays for monitoring applications requiring a pulse output up to 120VAC/VDC for PLC integrations; they also can be used to detect shaft, gate or slide position, as well as object presence.

The ABB LMS100 SPDT switch is mounted on a level gauge with a magnetic coupling action that eliminates process contact and the need for seals, diaphragms, springs or torque tubes; it senses high or low levels within a vessel.

Featuring an infrared reflected digital output technology, Clark stainless steel turbine flow meters/flow sensors provide flow monitoring and totalizing for liquids in pressures up to 363 psi.
