At a sugar factory, flowmeters measure the tonnage of water and syrup every hour. KROHNE OPTIFLUX 4300 and 6300 flowmeters are the standard equipment in sugar factories.
Typical applications for flowmeters in sugar factories:
Water inlet to the diffusion tank.
Circulation of juice after saturation.
Supply of syrup to the evaporation plant.
Measurement of condensate after evaporation.
Dosing of lime milk (OPTIFLUX 6300 with hard rubber lining).
Advantages: Accuracy of 0.2% even with bubbles and sediment.
PFA or hard rubber lining — does not become clogged with lime.
CIP at +140 °C without any problems.
