Krohne to showcase measuring instrument solutions at Food Processing Expo

Krohne will showcase its measuring instrument technology at the 2024 Food Processing Expo, to be held Feb. 13-14 in Sacramento, California.

The Massachusetts-headquartered industrial process instrumentation manufacturer will display several technological advances in food processing at the event.

Featured products will include:

• The OPTIFLUX 6000 electromagnetic flow sensor combines with signal converters to form electromagnetic flowmeters that can measure the flow of liquids.
• The OPTISYS IND 8100, a hygienic inductive conductivity measuring system for food and beverage applications, is used in applications including monitoring liquid food processing, media separations and cleaning operations.
• The OPTISWITCH 6700 is a capacitance level switch for hygienic and general industrial applications requiring IO-Link communication. It can provide point-level detection of food products such as mustard, cream, honey, flour and sugar, and can monitor CIP and SIP cleaning processes.
• The OPTIMASS 6400, a high-performance Coriolis mass flowmeter, has processing applications including concentration measurements, precise dosing of ingredients and reliable, repeatable measurement.
• The VISCOLINE new-generation rheometer enables sanitary production of food products such as cheese, yogurt and sauces. Based on mixing principles applied to pipes, the patented technology measures bulk viscosity on the whole flow, which is re-homogenized by the action of the static mixers.
