Baumer sets new benchmarks in temperature sensing

Baumer has released the TER8 temperature sensor. Based on RTD technology, it is designed for applications with demanding requirements on measuring accuracy and stringent hygienic standards. It is available both for front flush installation and in two variants with an immersion sleeve.

The sensor in its front flush variant allows for direct process integration, regardless of agitators or any other inside tank assemblies. This mounting versatility allows for reliable temperature detection even from previously infeasible mounting positions. It is said to speed up the process, enhance process control and save manufacturing resources while improving product quality.

The front flush variant also plays to its strengths when installed in pipelines. Contrary to similar sensors with metal sensor inserts, there are no sealing points in the process. Hermetical sealing towards the process in particular prevents the ingress of steam. This is claimed to ensure absolute reliability and long-life capabilities, especially in SIP processes.
