Modular Platform, Turbidity Sensors for Food, Beverage and Dairy Industries
Description
Hygienic, front flush turbidity sensor for media with a turbidity of 200…300.000 NTU equivalent in pipes from DN25 on.
- Frontflush sensor in compact and modular design
- Extended temperature and pressure range
- Independent to reflexions at small diameters or electro-polished surfaces
- No color dependency (wave length 860 nm)
- High reproducibility: ≤ 1 % of full scale
- Selectable output value (%TU, NTU, EBC)
- Extended measurement range: 200…300.000 NTU equivalent
·Front flush sensor
· Independent to reflexions at small diameters or electro-polished surfaces
· No color dependency (wave length 860 nm)
· Smallest pipe diameter: DN 25
· High reproducibility: ≤ 1% of full scale
· Switching output (switchpoint and hysteresis freely adjustable)
· Analog output 4...20 mA freely adjustable · Two ranges externally switchable
Application examples
- Phase separation products (whey-cream-milk)
- Separator control
- CIP-return line (monitoring of pre-rinse water to product leftovers)
- Yeast harvest in breweries
- Quality control
- Leakage control of filters, gasket, valves
Further Information:
- The ITM-51 is compatible to the antecessor ITM-3.

In 2014, Instek Control launched the Level Transmitter Mining (LTM-2) level measurement probe as alternative to traditional measurement systems for difficult and sometimes seemingly impossible measuring environments.
Instek Control is pleased to introduce the ITM-51 – the first turbidity sensor with IO-Link developed by Anderson-Negele.
In this blog post we are going back in time to toast the life of Italian physicist Giovanni Battista Venturi (1764 – 1822). He was responsible for figuring out an important element in basic fluid and airflow dynamics, which came to be known as The Venturi Effect.
Digitalisation has already found its way into many branches of industry under the keywords "Industry 4.0" or "Internet of Things", and today it is impossible to imagine life without it. INSTEK Control is excited to announce that the new dimension in hygienic measuring technology is digital and analogue, compact or remote and modular.
When it comes to a brewery, you clean to prevent the transfer of tastes from one beer to the next, and you clean to help assure your product is safe for human consumption. In the face of increasing supply and demand, brewing plants are compelled to keep the cost of production as low as possible, without sacrificing safety and quality of the end-product.
The highest priority in the production of food, beverages and pharmaceuticals is product safety. In sanitary applications, such as the production of vaccines or baby food, the purity, quality and stability of the product must be ensured.
