Pump Protection in Food and Beverage Processing

Pumping systems are an integral part of Food and Beverage processing and form a pivotal role in modern day production processes. It is, therefore, vital that these systems are protected to ensure maximum process availability and efficiency whilst minimizing production downtime, product wastage or loss and any potential spill hazard to personnel or the environment. A cost effective way to protect pumping systems against failure conditions such as: dry running/empty pipe, pipe blockage, inlet/outlet valve failure or pump failure, is to use a strategically placed flow switch. The Magnetrol Thermatel series of flow switches utilize temperature compensated, thermal dispersion technology, and are suitable for both safe and hazardous area applications, aseptic and standard duties and can also be used in applications with operating temperatures ranging from -70C to +450C, viscosities up 10,000cp and pressures up to 413Bar.More information is available at:
