Phase Separation Monitor Solutions for Beverage, Food, and Process Industries

ProDetec supplies phase separation monitor solutions for Australia’s brewing, beverage, food, dairy, and process facilities, providing continuous, inline detection of interface transitions between product, water, yeast, and CIP fluids at each key point in the production line. In high-volume beverage production, imprecise phase separation detection means product lost to drain, water contaminating product streams and CIP chemicals reaching the next batch. The result is more waste, lower yield and inconsistent quality.

The Sigrist PhaseGuard is ProDetec’s primary phase separation sensor for beverage and food applications, available in three models to suit the specific interface being detected: turbidity-based (Model T), high turbidity (Model HT), and colour-based (Model C). Each PhaseGuard phase separation detector uses a seal-less sapphire window design that keeps maintenance low, with factory Formazine calibration and straightforward integration into existing control and SCADA systems.

As the exclusive Australian and New Zealand distributor of Sigrist-Photometer AG, ProDetec supplies, commissions, and supports the full PhaseGuard range backed by local engineering expertise and long-term service capability across Australia.

Range of Phase Separation Monitor Solutions

PhaseGuard ST 40

PhaseGuard ST 40

In-line Phase Switch for Turbidity

The PhaseGuard ST 40 measures the phase transitions for turbidity. Two models of the PhaseGuard cover the possible applications: Phase switch for turbidity (PhaseGuard ST 40 – S) and for very high turbidity (PhaseGuard ST 40 – H). The PhaseGuard ST 40 is equipped with an optimised universal measuring range in absorption percent. Simple configuration and communication via one of the available interfaces, from 4…20 mA current interfaces to bus systems, guarantee simple application and system integration. The PhaseGuard ST 40 comes in a new, fresh design with an integrated colour touchscreen display. This makes the PhaseGuard ST 40 easy to identify in the system. The status is displayed directly in the device at the measuring point. The security of the data on the new interfaces is guaranteed.
