Operating in a frequency range that minimizes the effects of the conductivity of the media, the Gems CAP-300 Series coolant level sensor has a sealed design that prevents fluid intrusion.
Omron E3FA plastic body and E3FB metal body photoelectric sensors come in through-beam versions with ranges up to 20m, retro-reflective versions with ranges from 0.1 to 4m and coaxial retro-reflective versions with ranges up to 500mm; 3 models of diffuse-reflective sensors with ranges of 100mm, 300mm and 1m also are available.
Sensorex FCL500 series free chlorine sensors use advanced amperometric measurement technology to monitor free chlorine in food and beverage production, cooling water and other industrial water treatment systems.
The Aplus Finetek Sensor vibrating probe level switch provides level measurement for most bulk powder materials, including milk powder, ground coffee, sugar and grains.
While it may be said that food safety and food quality are not necessarily interrelated, get lax about either, and you probably won’t have a brand for long.
For most processors, traditional daily reports are compiled too late to be useful.

“Terabytes of data are spinning on our servers,” Dex Dutson, process control manager with ConAgra Foods Lamb Weston told attendees at ARC Advisory Group’s World Industry Forum held in Orlando in February.
Pepperl+Fuchs NBB flush-mount inductive sensors deliver sensing ranges to 1.5mm and a switching frequency up to 10 KHz in temperatures ranging from -13°F to 185°F.
Wireless systems help alleviate plant installation obstructions and provide cost efficiencies. With FSMA looming, it’s time to get moving to support electronic recordkeeping with wireless capabilities.
Look around you. You probably have operating parameters you’d like to measure and track to satisfy the requirements of regulators, especially with FDA getting serious about implementing parts of the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA).
