What happens if yogurt gets contaminated due to loss of vessel pressure?

Vessels for yogurt production are usually kept under a specific positive pressure to avoid the penetration of air which might contain contaminants

Possible consequences:

  • The yogurt in the vessel can get contaminated due to the lack of positive pressure
  • Undetected, contaminated product may be further processed, filled, and packed before the error is detected in the final quality control

Application Detail

Your Possible Damage

The entire product value of the production batch may be lost.

  • Depending on the vessel size this can mean up to 50,000 liters of yogurt value lost
  • Depending on the recipe, other valuable ingredients may become unusable
  • If the defect is only detected after filling, further costs for the process, packaging materials, etc. will be incurred

The Solution

Precise continuous measurement of level and head pressure with the D3 Differential Pressure Sensor

  • High precision differential pressure measurement with integrated second output for head pressure
  • Easy installation and setup, with easy retrofitting into existing plants
