Application Detail

The Bangalore Urban, Rural & Ramanagara District Co-Operative Milk Producers societies Union Ltd. (BAMUL) was established 1975, and is the second largest Dairy Co-Operative in India. In the south of India, it stands first in terms of procurement and sales. NANDINI is the in-house brand for Pure and Fresh Milk and Milk Products. The Bangalore Dairy has become one of the most sophisticated Dairies in India by adopting Computer Controlled State of the Art Technology.

The Requirements

A critical issue in their milk separation process has been faced by Bamul Bangalore Plant Deputy Manager Maintenance. They experienced frequent diaphragm ruptures in the installed pressure gauges caused by sudden fluctuations in the pressure. This problem led to repeated plant downtime, and forced them to maintain a large inventory because of frequent failures.
In addition, accurate pressure measurement was a critical requirement to ensure a constant milk fat ratio. To solve these problems, the manager was looking for a high quality pressure gauge that can sustain such fluctuations and help avoid any downtime, which leads to production loss.

The Anderson-Negele Solution

The EL Pressure Gauge was first offered on a trial basis by Anderson-Negele India. The hygienic EL “Extended Life” pressure gauges are designed to resist repeated process and environmental stress like vibration, pulsation, harsh cleaning chemicals, wide temperature and humidity fluctuations. With more than 30 years of experience, we’ve identified and addressed all these key causes of premature failure in dairy, food, and beverage processing applications. After getting the positive test results, BAMUL regularized their milk separation process with Anderson-Negele's EL pressure gauge. From the first trial more than 5 years ago, all of our installed EL pressure gauges are running successfully with the highest customer satisfaction.
