Dpstar has been the market leader in the field of electromagnetic flow meters for over 30 years. Thanks to the unique combination of high technology and the simplest user interface, our products are designed to measure and control a whole array of applications used in a variety of Industries.

Flow measurement is a vital part of food and drink manufacturing, from filling vessels to measuring ingredients and controlling cleaning processes. Accurate measurement and control of raw materials are very demanding. Our flowmeters have been successfully used in the food and beverage industry in a variety of different applications. Food grade flow meters helps to increase productivity and cut costs. The electromagnetic flowmeter is not easy to be polluted during use, and can effectively prevent the accumulation of measurement fluid residues in the measuring tube, and can be widely used in mineral water, soy sauce, jam, beer, fruit juice, rice wine, milk and other food production and manufacturing process.

Industry Applications

Breweries

Brewing process starts with the addition of malted barley grain and water to the mash cooker. Mashing allows the enzymes in the malt to break down the starch in the grain into sugars, typically maltose, to create a malty sugary solution. After mashing the resulting solution are measured with the Dpstar’s sanitary electromagnetic flow meters and flows to a filter press that separates out the grain. Often times, the filtered grain by products are sold to local farmers. From the filter press, the solution, now called wort, goes into one of two steam-heated kettles for boiling. One kettle boils wort while the other undergoes cleaning and preparation. A manually operated coil for steam at the bottom of the kettle preheats the wort.

Dairy Production

Dairy production includes processes such as fresh milk pretreatment, heat exchange, homogenization, drying, sterilization, and filling. Different products have different processing techniques, but all require high-precision process instruments to monitor the production process to ensure Production safety and reliability. In the dairy production process, the process flow from raw materials to finished products needs to be measured with a hygienic electromagnetic flowmeter, which has high measurement accuracy and can improve the safe and hygienic production of the process.

Soft Drink Process

In producing soft drinks, CO2 is used for the carbonation of the fluid. While the sanitary electromagnetic flow meters are used to measure the flow of soft drinks, CO2 measurement offers a unique challenge for soft drink manufacturers. Often times, manufactures use old technologies gas flow meters such as differential pressure flow meters to measure the flow of CO2 so process engineers can control a valve and provide the right amount of gas into his soft drink production.

Edible Oil

Food grade flow meters can measure edible oil. There are many steps in the processing of edible oil that require a flow meter to measure the volume and weight of how much oil flows out of the pipeline. Companies that produce and process edible oils need to use flow meters for statistics on the crude oil that is initially refined and the essential oil that is finally refined.

Measuring Starch Concentration

When removing water from wheat starch suspension in centrifuges, it is important to determine the exact starch content and adjust it to a specific concentration. Starch content can vary from: 0 to 45 % with densities of 1030 to 1180 kg/m³. Water removal is measured using sanitary electromagnetic flowmeters.

Juice Process

Orange juice concentrates are difficult application due to the amount of pulp in it with its high viscosity. Pulp would jam and possibly destroy a mechanical gear type positive displacement flowmeter which are sometimes used in this application. In addition, the high sugar content makes frequent cleanings necessary on systems running juice concentrate. The sanitary electromagnetic flow meters with its simple design allows material such as pulp to pass through it.

Bakeries

When processing dough for bakeries, the sanitary electromagnetic flow meter is used to batch water and liquid sugar. The batches varied from the required 134 (61 Kg) pounds to over 200 Lb. (91Kg). Bad product qualities can occasional ruined batches of dough.  Our sanitary electromagnetic flow meters are used not only measures the amount of water in the process but also the amount of liquid sugar. The liquid sugar for the dough is stored in a 7000-gallon outdoor storage tank heated to keep the contents at +85° F (+29° C). Temperature fluctuations cause fluid viscosity changes. The situation is worse in the winter, or whenever the heat tracing system is not operating. A drift in meter repeatability gradually increases the batch size from 134 (61kg) to 160 Lb. (73 Kg). Our flow meters are used in this application effectively for two reasons. First, the flow rate is fairly constant. Secondly, the viscosity is relatively high (160 cP) and viscosity changes does not affect the accuracy of a magnetic flow meter.
