Sealed Sanitary Enclosure
The MCT469-SF conforms to IP69-rating* with an enclosure that is completely dust tight and impenetrable by powerful and high temperature sprays at close range, making it ideal for washdown environments. The sealed enclosure gives users the ability to clean the sensor in place, reducing washdown prep time. The easy to use, NEMA 4, touch screen operator interface is also water resistant and can be mounted adjacent to the production line to inform operators of the need for to process adjustments.
No niches for debris accumulation or microorganism ingress reduces food buildup and enables efficient, thorough cleaning over the life of the sensor. Additional food grade components for ensuring food safety and adherence to industry regulations include:
- 316 stainless steel enclosure
- Sapphire sight window
- FDA 21CFR177.2600 conforming gaskets
PSC Smart Sensor advantage
The Food Grade IP69 On-line Moisture and Oil Sensor is easily integrated into existing systems. It connects to closed loop control systems or local alarms and eliminates the need for time-consuming and disruptive lab testing. A proprietary temperature-controlled detector enhances stability in arduous environments.
With a standard two year comprehensive warranty and a rugged 316 stainless steel enclosure designed to survive in the harshest environments, the MCT469-SF provides years of reliable performance in even the harshest environments. Simultaneous multi-constituent measurement can be made for the following parameters:
- Moisture
- Oils/Fats
- Protein
