LiquiSonic® ensures precise analysis and monitoring of starch concentration, without additional cleaning steps, with an accuracy of ± 0.05 % by ultrasonic measurements. The robust plug & play LiquiSonic® sensor design guarantees a long service life of the system and reduces time-consuming laboratory measurements.
Precise and clean-free concentration measurement
Sizing is a critical process step in paper production. It gives the paper desired properties such as tear resistance and dry strength. This makes process monitoring particularly important in order to use cost-intensive resources as efficiently as possible.
Quick and easy commissioning is made possible by the Plug & Play system. Compared to other measuring methods, ultrasonic sensors provide a clear signal in the typical concentration range of 0 - 40 % at all times, without the need for time-consuming cleaning and rinsing processes and cost-intensive cleaning equipment. In addition, complex measurement tasks for special paper starch glues with additives or measurements of over 40 m% starch content have already been successfully realized.
Thanks to the permanent data logging of our long-life LiquiSonic® sensors, time-consuming laboratory evaluations can be avoided and accuracies of ± 0.05 % can be achieved in order to guarantee optimum process conditions at all times.
Plug & Play installation system
Our LiquiSonic® immersion sensor is the perfect solution for the precise measurement of starch concentration. Thanks to our Plug & Play system, the sensor can be installed directly into existing pipelines without any complex conversion work.
The LiquiSonic® Controller 30 allows the connection of up to four sensors, which enables permanent monitoring of the starch concentration at several critical points with just one controller. This makes it possible to react extremely quickly to changes.
Our LiquiSonic® immersion sensor can perfectly measure the typical concentration range of 0 - 40 % as well as the classic process temperatures in the 20 - 60 °C range. In addition, our system is suitable for a variety of starch types such as wheat starch, hydroxyl ethyl starch, potato starch, corn starch and modified starch.
