Automation Solutions in Harsh Applications

IP69K, Acid and Bases Resistant Devices and Components:

When working in an automated manufacturing segment, components need to be able to survive in sanitary, hygienic and aseptic environments. Specifications for equipment look to reduce and remove areas harboring bacteria, dirt and chemicals. Poor survivability for automation components during washdown can be a major cause of downtime and lost production during changeovers and cleaning processes.

Balluff's washdown portfolio offers ways to detect level and flow of media in a tank or pipe, traceability inside the plant, and retrieval of information. Information can be imported anywhere to see how often the equipment is cleaned, product location, changing of tool installation, and real time of the recipe being run on the floor. From start to finish, Balluff offers solutions for some of the cleanest automation environments.
