Application

Raw materials delivery

Monitoring the quantity and quality of the raw materials begins at the delivery point.

Our expertise in the field

Our radar-based measurement instruments continually and precisely monitor the fill level in the storage tanks and silos, regardless if the raw material is delivered in solid or liquid form.

From raw oil to high-quality edible oil

In edible oil refining unwanted components, such as turbid substances or other materials that influence taste and odor, are removed from the raw oil.

Our expertise in the field

Ensuring product quality in each of the respective processes requires permanent monitoring of critical parameters such as temperature, pressure and flow.

Process safety in all temperature ranges

From pressing to finished edible oil, the raw oil passes through various temperature ranges to ensure product quality. In the deodorizing step, the process temperature rises to as high as 240 °C.

Our expertise in the field

Sentasy offers a wide range of temperature measurement instruments for all process requirements, from simple compact thermometers to modular temperature transmitters.

Safely monitoring pressure and vacuum in the vessels

Ceramic measurement cells are a proven technology for maintaining the proper vacuum level in the vessels during the process.

Our expertise in the field

Thanks to a vacuum-proof ceramic measurement cell with integrated breakage detection membrane, our Cerabar pressure transmitter ensures a high degree of process safety . The Quick Setup feature with configurable measuring range allows simple commissioning, reduces costs and saves time.

Precise flow and volume monitoring in demanding applications

Flowmeters are used to reliably monitor the transfer of the raw oil within the individual process steps.

Our expertise in the field

As a result, loss can be detected and prevented in order to maintain the yield at a constantly high level. In addition, highly-precise Coriolis flowmeters are used to control the dosing of process enhancers, operating materials and additives, thus ensuring product quality.
