Ultrasonic flow meter in the food industry application has higher hygiene , mainly reflected in the following aspects:
Non-contact measurement: The sensor of the ultrasonic flow meter is installed outside the pipe and does not come into direct contact with the fluid being measured. This design avoids the physical contact between the flow meter components and food materials, thereby eliminating the risks of contamination such as bacterial growth and foreign matter contamination. For example, in THE production process of milk, juice and OTHER beverages, the ultrasonic flow meter can accurately measure flow without contact with the liquid to ensure the purity of the beverage.
Easy to clean and disinfect: The ultrasonic flow meter has a relatively simple structure with no complex internal structure or narrow gaps, which makes it easy to clean and disinfect after use. The food industry has very strict hygiene requirements. The cleaning and disinfection of equipment are indispensable links in daily production. This feature of the ultrasonic flow meter enables it to meet the hygiene standards of the food industry and facilitates regular cleaning and disinfection operations to keep the equipment in a hygienic state.
Material safety: Ultrasonic flow meters used in the food industry are typically made of materials that meet food-grade hygiene standards, such as food-grade stainless steel. These materials have good corrosion resistance and chemical stability, do not react chemically with food materials, and do not release harmful substances into food, thus ensuring food safety.
No effect on fluid properties : The ultrasonic flow meter does not affect the flow state of the fluid during the measurement process, nor does it cause pressure loss. This means that it does not change the physical and chemical properties of food materials, guaranteeing the quality and safety of food in the production process.
