Flow meters, pressure and temperature transmitters, level sensors, load cells and gauges, hygienic and industrial.
A photograph of the nameplate is enough. Part numbers are not published on this site. The nameplate carries the model, the build and the serial, and those three identify every consumable and wear part on the machine.
Where the nameplate is unreadable, a photograph of the equipment and the plant tag number are normally sufficient. The quotation states the genuine part, its origin and its lead time.
Process decisions in the plant, including CIP concentration, pasteurisation hold, fill weight and membrane pressure, are taken on instrument readings. An instrument that has drifted continues to report, and the reading is accepted.
| Instrument | Effect of drift |
|---|---|
| Load cell, weighing | Consistent giveaway or underfill across every pack |
| Temperature, pasteurisation | A food-safety critical control point |
| Pressure, membrane skid | Elements run outside specification, shortening life |
| CIP conductivity and concentration | Under-cleaning, or caustic stronger than intended attacking the seals |
Calibration produces a record, and the record is what an auditor requests.
Both values start in agreement. One diverges over twenty-four months without entering the alarm band.
