Sanitary Pressure Transmitters: Food, Dairy & Pharmaceutical Applications
Pressure measurement in food, dairy, and pharmaceutical processing is different from pressure measurement in a refinery or a water plant. The medium is often viscous, paste-like, or crystallizing — yogurt, ketchup, honey, slurries, and pharmaceutical suspensions. The process demands absolute cleanliness: lines must be cleaned in place (CIP) and sometimes steamed in place (SIP), with no dead spaces where product or bacteria can hide. And every wetted component must meet food-grade material standards. A standard industrial pressure transmitter with a narrow pressure port fails these requirements in two ways: viscous media clog the port, and the dead space traps product...
