Banner U-GAGE
Smooth stainless steel housing of the new U-GAGE M25U ultrasonic sensor from Banner Engineering resists harsh chemicals required for cleaning in bottling and other sanitary applications
The sensor operates over a wide temperature range of –20° to +70°C and can withstand high-pressure sprays at up to 100 bar and harsh chemicals for cleaning. It uses stainless steel transducers to create and receive the ultrasonic signal instead of traditional ceramic transducers that cannot survive in washdown conditions. For easy cleaning and disinfecting, the smooth 316 stainless steel housing has no threading, gaps or seams to trap contaminants.
Designed primarily for OEM use on bottling machines and conveyor systems, the sensor detects presence or absence of clear or colored containers during sanitising or other clean-in-place procedures. It can also be used for food process and position monitoring and aseptic bottling in contained environments.
