In sensitive production areas such as food, beverage or pharmaceuticals, hygiene is not just important – it's essential. That's why UWT offers level measurement solutions that meet the highest hygiene standards. Here we show you how!

Reliable level measurement technology for sensitive processes is a key component in hygiene critical applications within the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries. Modern sensor solutions with EHEDG-compliant design, Tri-Clamp connection, and CIP / SIP compatibility enable safe and hygienic integration into demanding process environments.

PROCESS HYGIENE

  • Use of food-grade materials
  • Smooth, crevice-free surfaces with no dirt traps – zero dead space 
  • EHEDG-certified for hygienic design
  • FDA-compliant seals: FKM, EPDM or PTFE

TRI-CLAMP ADAPTER

  • Tool-free quick connection according to DIN, ISO, 3-A and ASME BPE
  • Hygienic integration into tanks, pipelines & systems
  • Easily detachable for maintenance
  • Hygiene-optimized design for CIP / SIP processes

CIP & SIP

  • Cleaning in Place (CIP): Automated cleaning without disassembly
  • Sterilization in Place (SIP): Germ-free processes using steam or chemicals
  • Resistant to chemicals, pressure, and temperature
  • Consistent cleaning ensures stable product quality

HYGIENE STANDARDS THAT DELIVER.
CERTIFIED SENSORS FOR SENSITIVE PROCESSES.

DESIGN THAT GUARANTEES CLEANLINESS

Materials you can rely on

Stainless steel 316L / 1.4404 meets high standards for corrosion resistance, food safety, and cleanability – for safe and continuous operation.

Temperature and pressure resistance – for demanding processes

Sensors that withstand extreme conditions – essential for processes involving thermal stress or aggressive media.

Sealing that ensures safety

IP-certified housings and hygienic Tri-Clamp connections protect against contamination and leakage – crucial for CIP/SIP processes.

Surface quality that ensures hygiene

Electropolished stainless steel surfaces with hygienic roughness (Ra < 0.8 µm) and crevice-free construction reduce buildup – in line with EHEDG design criteria.
