Baumer inductive sensors meet the strictest hygiene requirements

Baumer inductive sensors meet the strictest hygiene requirements

08 January 2014

Baumer has further optimized their IFBR inductive sensors for hygienic applications. The sensor front caps are provided with a new, special plastic that conforms to strict EU regulations. In particular, Eu regulation 1282/2011, places high demands on plastics that come in contact with food. The new IFBR makes Baumer one of the few world-wide suppliers in the inductive sensor field that complies with these strict  regulations. The new sensor front cap is also extremely resistant to corrosion or abrasion.

During the development Baumer used all the experience gathered in many years by a broad portfolio for the hygienic design sector, especially in food and beverage. Thanks to the robust housing in V4A stainless steel, the IFBR family is ideally suited for such applications.. Ecolab tested and EHEDG certified, the sensors distinguishby smooth, continuous or sealed surfaces and corrosion-resistant materials as well as flush and hygienic connections.

The wash-down design ensures that the sensors withstand the frequently necessary intensive-cleaning and disinfection cycles. ProTect + gives the IFBR series a unique Baumer sealing concept that goes beyond the requirements of IP69K and guarantees maximum isolation, even after many temperature cycles.

In addition to the sensors, the associated HI mounting accessories comply with the regulations for hygienic applications. Even the mechanical mountings are subject to the same strict requirements as the sensors. The Baumer portfolio for the hygienic sector includes a total of five sensor families in flush and non-flush versions with cylindrical dimensions of 6,11,and 17 mm.
