Every Drop Counts: Flow Measurement Technologies for Hygienic Applications

13 Jun 2025

New Whitepaper: Discover how reliable, precise flow control helps optimize hygienic processes, improve product quality, and reduce costs in food, beverage, and pharma

Flow measurement in hygienic applications is essential for optimizing production, ensuring product quality, and minimizing resource consumption in the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries.

But with a wide range of technologies—from magnetic-inductive and Coriolis to turbine and calorimetric sensors—how do you choose the best solution for your process?

In this whitepaper, Anderson-Negele experts provide a practical guide to selecting the right flow sensor technology for your hygienic processes, supported by over 130 years of combined expertise in flow measurement and sanitary design.

Flow Meters: Precise Measurement for Process Control

Flow meters are essential for the automated control and monitoring of hygienic processes. They accurately detect the volume or mass of liquid flowing in your system and are commonly used for:

• Dosing during beverage or dairy mixing
• Recipe control in food and pharmaceutical manufacturing
• CIP and production monitoring in breweries or processing plants
• Accurate filling of kegs, vessels, and transport tanks
• PMO-compliant milk receiving and regulatory reporting

Flow Switches: Safety and Flow Verification

Flow switches play a critical role in system safety and reliability. Instead of measuring volume, they verify whether flow is occurring—and alert operators if it is interrupted.

Ideal for:

• Monitoring filters, cooling circuits, and heat exchangers
• Pump protection (e.g., dry-run alerts)
• Detecting misdirected media
• CIP return line verification
