Hygienic applications require the right recipe

Process systems in hygienic applications must meet strict requirements to prevent contamination. In the food industry, this leads at best to odor, color or taste problems, but at worst to spoilage and is thus an attack on health. The development and construction of process systems therefore requires specialized knowledge. Fluxer, with its product range from Bürkert, has all the necessary components to assure customers that all the various components are optimally matched. Bürkert, which invests heavily in R&D, regularly develops new technologies. In recent years, for example, the demand for compact valves has led to the development of complete valve blocks. In this type of solution, valves, control valves and sensors are integrated into one product, which, among other things, significantly simplifies installation. 

Thinking along

To develop a system that meets the specific requirements and needs of both the user and the process itself, Fluxer always first conducts a proper discussion with the customer. The goal is to arrive at a customized solution that suits the end user and his situation. For example, for a company just starting out with CIP, a mobile skid as a cleaning solution may be a good starting point. With this, he invests in one system that allows him to clean at all necessary points. Later, he may decide to invest in a fixed system or a combination of mobile and fixed.  

Communication Protocols

Fluxer always looks together with Bürkert at the customer's situation and environment in which the total solution is placed. Thus various communication protocols such as Profinet, Ethernet, Modbus, IO-Link and CANopen are possible, allowing easy integration into the end user's existing system. Whatever the application, Fluxer's specialists identify the requirements and translate them into a high-quality total solution.
