Application Notes & Case Studies

1. Drew’s LLC Installs Eriez Liquid Metal Detectors To Detect Any Metal Contaminants During Processing 11/12/2020

   To remain competitive in the demanding and highly-scrutinized food industry, Drew’s achieved certification from the Safe Quality Food Institute in meeting the SQF 2000 Code of Food Safety. With the two Eriez Metal Detectors in place, Drew’s has double protection against any sort of metal particulate reaching customers.

2. Calcium Hypochlorite Feeder Selected As Primary Solution For Municipal Water Treatment Plants 10/23/2020

   Long Beach Township is the largest town on Long Beach Island, New Jersey. With 18 miles of beaches, the town is a major tourist destination. Population exploded during the summer months from approximately 3,000 to over 100,000. This can be a challenge for the town's drinking water facilities, with demand increasing exponentially during the tourist season.

3. Byers Gains Stable Chlorination And Reduced Maintenance With Constant Chlor® MC5 System 10/23/2020

   Byers is an unincorporated rural community in Arapahoe County, Colorado, approximately 50 miles east of Denver. Byers Water & Sanitation District provides drinking water to this area. The district operates five wells – each approximately 700 feet deep. Two wells are typically used in the winter and four in the summer. Annual water use averages 140,000 gallons per day for the district’s 500 active service connections.

4. Biofouling Control In Cooling Towers With A Halogen Stabilizer 10/22/2020

   Biofouling in cooling towers is undesirable because it can reduce heat transfer efficiency, restrict water flow, and accelerate corrosion rates. Of even greater concern is the fact that pathogen growth in cooling towers can lead to disease transmission. Given the favorable growth environment of a cooling tower, these microorganisms can reproduce, proliferate and form complex biofilm communities. Legionella bacteria, which cause Legionnaires’ disease, are one of the greatest concerns from a public health standpoint because infections are often lethal and cooling towers are the most frequently reported non-potable water source of Legionnaires’ disease outbreaks (Llewellyn 2017).

5. Breaking The Causative Chain Of Legionellosis 10/22/2020

   Legionnaires’ disease first garnered public attention in 1976. After attending an American Legion convention at a Philadelphia hotel, 221 people became ill, with 34 dying of a mysterious illness. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) launched a major investigation, and in 1977 identified the responsible bacterium, naming it Legionella.

6. Achieve A Higher Level Of Food Safety With Selectscan Metal Detection 7/21/2020

   Food safety, product quality and brand protection are of foremost concern to food processors. Food inspection technology manufacturers are responding with new inspection solutions to better detect metal foreign objects – the most common contaminant type – to help food processors achieve the detection parameters they need and to meet the increasing number of inspection compliance programs that retailers are requiring to do business with their suppliers.

7. Milk Receiving And Cream Load Out Metering 6/22/2020

   Entrained micro bubbles in the milk cause measurement challenges. A mass flowmeter solution ensures accurate measurement of milk received or cream outload.

8. Inline Weighing Technology Offers Additional Quality Check Features 6/10/2020

   Protina Pharmazeutische GmbH produces high-quality preparations, such as medicine, food supplements and cosmetics. Alongside weight monitoring, the checkweigher used at Protina offers other important functions that support the company's system of strict quality management.

9. Nutritional Medicine Manufacturer Installs Two Line Checkweigher To Keep Up With Demand 6/10/2020

   Orthomol pharmazeutische Vertriebs GmbH develops and markets an extensive range of food supplements. Annually over 50 million pouches and 12 million drink bottles leave the premises. A new two-lane C35 AdvancedLine checkweigher excels in high weighing accuracy and throughput, and its versatile product handling features can be flexibly adapted to changing requirements in Orthomol's production lines.

10. Nutraceutical Firm Maximizes Product Quality With X-Ray Inspection System 6/10/2020

    Health Specialties Manufacturing produces probiotics, enzymes, vitamins and joint-muscle blends including liquid and powder blends and a variety of packaging sizes and formats. They installed an x-ray inspection system that ensures they protect product quality.
