ENDRESS+HAUSER  CLD134-E00030AA1

Hygienic measuring system for conductivity and concentration for applications in the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries and in biotechnology

The inductive conductivity measuring system is specifically designed for use in hygienic applications in the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries and in biotechnology. Thanks to its hygiene certificates and its food-safe, virgin PEEK design without any joints or crevices, it meets the strict demands of these industries. Both compact and remote system versions are available. The Smartec CLD134 is ideal for:

• Phase separation of product/water and product/product mixtures in pipe systems
• Control of cleaning in place (CIP) processes in the return line
• Concentration control in the remaking of CIP cleaning agents
• Product monitoring in pipes, bottling plants and quality assurance
• Leakage monitoring

in the following industries:

• Dairies
• Breweries
• Beverages (water, juices, soft drinks)
• Pharmaceuticals and biotechnology

• Unique hygienic design, therefore no risk of recontamination
• Has all the hygiene certificates required in the hygiene sector
• Hygiene-compliant stainless steel transmitter housing
• Durable thanks to fully encapsulated, sealless design
• Fast measurement with temperature response time t 90 under 26 s, ensuring safe and efficient phase separation
• Flexible thanks to a variety of operating options:
  • Keypad
  • HART® handheld terminal
  • PROFIBUS PA/DP
  • PC with FieldCare software package (with FDT/DTM technology)
• Basic version upgradeable by extending functions with remote parameter set configuration (measuring range switching)

An oscillator (1) generates an alternating magnetic field in the primary coil (2), which induces a current flow (3) in the medium. The strength of the current depends on the conductivity and thus on the ion concentration in the medium. The current flow in the medium, in turn, generates a magnetic field in the secondary coil (4). The resulting induced current is measured by the receiver (5) and used to determine the conductivity.
