Case Study: Innovating Processes With A Brooks Instrument Mass Flow Controller
In the ever-expanding world of craft beer, Rahr Malting, a prominent player in the malt and distillery markets, stands out as an innovative force. With one of the world’s largest single-site malting facilities in Minnesota and a distribution network spanning the globe, they recognized that precise control of fermentation was the key to producing high-quality malt. Seeking to revolutionize their brewing processes, Rahr invested in cutting-edge brewing equipment and adopted Brooks Instrument’s Mass Flow Controller in a rugged NEMA4X/IP66 enclosure. This state-of-the-art solution has allowed Rahr to automate and optimize their brewing, from oxygen control to efficiency enhancement, catapulting them into the elite ranks of world-class brewers.
Case Study: Reliable operations secured at Michigan Sugar with Flowrox™ valves and pumps
Michigan Sugar faced operational challenges, with issues ranging from a cast-iron butterfly valve struggling with abrasive materials to rapidly wearing stainless-steel plates in the pulp-dewatering process. Seeking a solution, they turned to Flowrox products, which revolutionized their operations. Flowrox pinch valves extended their lifespan from days to an impressive nine months, saving time and money. Additionally, Flowrox peristaltic pumps addressed the calcium-moving problem. Valmet, with its extensive expertise, offers top-quality flow control solutions for a wide range of process industries, including sugar production.

Reduce Risk
Ammonia sensors are critical in the food and beverage industry, ensuring safety and compliance by detecting ammonia leaks. The Dräger NH3 FL sensor, featuring four electrodes, stands out with enhanced precision and humidity resistance. It exhibits minimal sensitivity to CO2, a common gas in this industry, and remains unaffected by humidity spikes. Click below to learn more about Dräger ammonia sensors.
Improve Efficiency
Discover the future of process efficiency with Neles™ Neldisc™ butterfly valves. These cutting-edge valves are engineered to reduce energy consumption through optimized geometry, precise flow control, and smaller actuators, making them ideal for compressed air systems. Moreover, their innovative two-shaft design enhances flow capacity, ensuring smooth passage and minimal turbulence, even in fully open positions. With the added support of Nelprof, an advanced valve sizing tool, you can fine-tune valve selection for maximum efficiency. These valves also prioritize reliability, with unique metal seat technology minimizing leakage, reducing energy losses, and solidifying their sustainability.
Raise Quality
The new DMSU22SA in-line process transmitter from WIKA allows for hygienic in-line pressure measurement for aseptic food processing.
This is enabled through the patented sensor tube solution of the in-line process transmitter, in combination with the sensor monitoring within the double-tube system, providing optimum protection against process and environmental contamination. The in-line process transmitter can be supplied with all common process connections for sanitary applications and fulfils the applicable standards for them.
