Sensor Port (optional): Operating Temperature -10°C to 80°C

Component Specifications

Definition

An optional interface component in filling nozzle assemblies that allows integration of various sensors (e.g., level, flow, pressure, temperature) to monitor, control, and optimize liquid filling processes in beverage manufacturing. It provides standardized mounting points and electrical connections for sensor installation without modifying the main nozzle structure.

Working Principle

Provides mechanical mounting and electrical connectivity for sensors that detect physical parameters during filling operations. Sensors transmit data to control systems via this port, enabling real-time monitoring, feedback control, and process automation.

Materials

Stainless steel 316L (food-grade), PTFE seals, gold-plated brass electrical contacts, silicone gaskets
