Anderson Negele turbine flow sensors provide precise, reliable measurement of volumetric flow in sanitary processing environments. Designed for conductive and non conductive fluids, these sensors are ideal for applications requiring accurate, repeatable measurement with minimal pressure drop and high durability.
The HM Turbine Flow Sensor and HMP Pharma Turbine Flow Sensor deliver hygienic measurement using 316 stainless steel wetted components, ensuring compatibility with food, beverage, dairy, and pharmaceutical processes. They offer ±0.5% accuracy, making them suitable for metering applications such as ingredient dosing, process monitoring, filling, and consumption tracking.
Key Benefits
1.) High Measurement Accuracy
- Both HM and HMP turbine models deliver ±0.5% accuracy, making them well‑suited for precise batching and metering.Â
- Stable, repeatable turbine measurement supports throughput consistency across variable flow ranges.
2.) Hygienic, Durable Construction
- Wetted materials include 316 stainless steel, Rulon bearings, and sanitary elastomers, ensuring long service life and corrosion resistance.Â
- Designed specifically for sanitary industries, offering compliance with hygienic standards required in food, beverage, dairy, and pharma.
3)Â Versatile for a Wide Range of Fluids
- Suitable for conductive and non‑conductive liquids such as water, oils, syrups, dairy products, and clean‑in‑place chemicals.Â
- Handles flow measurement needs in low‑ to medium‑viscosity applications without the limitations of magnetic or Coriolis technologies.
4.) Reliable Performance in Tough Environments
- Built to withstand temperature swings and continuous process operation, with process temperature ratings up to 250°F (120°C) depending on model.Â
- Smooth internal geometry minimizes pressure loss and supports hygienic cleaning.
Common Uses
Food & Beverage Processing
Used for measuring production flows of juices, syrups, cooking oils, beer, and other batching fluids where stable metering is required. Turbine sensors are advantageous when fluids are non‑conductive and not suited for magmeters.Â
Dairy Applications
Suitable for milk, cream, whey, and ingredient dosing systems where precise flow measurement ensures consistent formulation and yield. Hygienic construction supports CIP procedures.Â
Pharmaceutical & Life Sciences
The HMP Pharma Turbine Sensor offers enhanced sanitary materials and finishes for measuring purified water, buffer solutions, and process liquids in controlled environments.Â
Batching, Filling & Consumption Monitoring
Ideal for:
- Ingredient batching
- Blend ratio control
- High‑precision filling systems
- Utility monitoring (e.g., water or CIP chemical usage)
Summary
Anderson‑Negele turbine flow sensors deliver high‑accuracy, hygienic, and robust flow measurement for applications across the food, beverage, dairy, and pharmaceutical industries. Their stainless‑steel sanitary construction, ±0.5% accuracy, versatility with conductive and non‑conductive liquids, and compatibility with CIP processes make them a dependable choice for batching, filling, and general flow monitoring. Whether integrated into a new skid or retrofitted into an existing pipeline, these turbine sensors provide reliable performance and long‑term value in demanding hygienic environments.
