The OPTIFLUX 6000 ectromagnetic flow sensor is specifically designed to stay clean and sterile in compliance with the most stringent demands prevailing in the food & beverages and pharmaceutical industries. There are no crevices, gaps or blind spots and the flow sensor offers full CIP/SIP possibilities. The flow sensor is conform FDA food contact material requirements, for all wetted materials and is certified in accordance with EHEDG and 3A.
The flowmeter provides easy installation and commissioning and is available with the signal converter seperate, or mounted directly on the flow sensor. Therefore it can be installed in places difficult to access due to for example high temperatures or vibrations. The signal
converter is also available in a stainless steel housing for applications when for example regular cleaning procedures with aggressive cleaning agents, may attack a standard polyurethane coating.
In addition to weld-end connections, this KROHNE flow meter offers a large number of other hygienic connections, including DIN 11851, DIN 11864, clamp and SMS.
Because of its high accuracy, a precise measurement of the medium is possible enabling an accurate measurement of flows whether it is required for blending, dosing or batching. Furthermore its accuracy is maintained even in case of pulsating flows. When a medium has a
low conductivity for example in case of glucose or fruit concentrates, the device continues to deliver an optimal performance.
Due to its reinforced liner the OPTIFLUX 6000 is an optimal solution for applications where high temperatures or vacuum impacts can occur. The certified hygienic construction is also available for larger diameters up to DN150, as volumes are increasing and larger pipe sizes are needed with fast increase in the industrial production of beer, wine, milk and other beverages.
