Food processing industry

The food sector deserves special attention. In the realm of pressure gauges, the requirements are quite specific, driven by both safety and hygiene considerations. At EMVO Techniek, we offer suitable pressure gauges for every process within the food industry. From local bakeries to international food manufacturers, our measuring instruments meet all the criteria for long-lasting and accurate performance under all conditions.

Pressure measurements in piping and tanks

Pressure gauges are utilized to measure pressure in pipes and tanks involved in various stages of the food processing cycle. This includes monitoring pressure levels in tanks used for storage, fermentation, and transportation of liquid ingredients.

Sterilization processes in the food industry

In the food industry, sterilization is crucial to ensure food safety. Pressure gauges are employed to monitor pressure during sterilization and pasteurization processes, where high temperatures and pressure are applied to eliminate bacteria and other pathogens. The gauges we provide for these processes are resistant to extreme temperatures and other unique conditions, guaranteeing precise measurements and a prolonged lifespan.

Pressure gauges in steam generators

Steam is frequently used in the food processing industry for cooking, pasteurizing, and cleaning equipment. Pressure gauges are deployed to measure and control pressure in steam generators, ensuring optimal steam conditions are maintained.

Pressure levels in filling and packaging machines

Pressure gauges also play a significant role in filling and packaging machines. They ensure the proper pressure is maintained during the packaging of food, contributing to the consistency of the packaging process.

The right material, hygienic design

Pressure gauges that may come into contact with food must be made of materials suitable for use in the food industry. Stainless steel is a commonly used material due to its corrosion resistance and ease of cleaning.

The design of the pressure gauge must also be hygienic, meaning there are no hard-to-reach areas where dirt, bacteria, or other contaminants can accumulate.

Food safety and regulations

Pressure gauges in the food industry must adhere to strict food safety standards and regulations. This includes rules for hygiene and the use of suitable materials in contact with food. The accuracy of measurements is also crucial, requiring regular calibration to ensure precision. At EMVO Techniek, we offer a super-fast calibration service, returning your pressure gauges within one to two working days, along with a calibration report.
