Component Specifications

Definition
A durable identification component permanently attached to starch slurry flow control orifice plates in food manufacturing systems, providing critical operational data including plate specifications, calibration details, installation date, and maintenance records to ensure proper flow measurement and regulatory compliance.
Working Principle
Provides permanent visual identification through engraved or stamped markings that withstand harsh processing environments, enabling operators to verify orifice plate specifications, flow coefficients, and calibration data without removing the plate from the pipeline.
Materials
Stainless steel 316L (food-grade), laser-etched or stamped markings with optional protective epoxy coating; resistant to starch slurry chemicals, moisture, and cleaning agents.
Technical Parameters
  • Readability Characters minimum 3mm height, contrast ratio >70%
  • Marking Method Laser engraving (minimum depth 0.3mm)
  • Tag Dimensions 25mm x 40mm x 1.5mm
  • Mounting Method Welded or riveted attachment
  • Temperature Range -20°C to 150°C
  • Chemical Resistance Resistant to starch, water, cleaning solutions (pH 3-11)
Standards
ISO 9001, ISO 22000, DIN 19205, FDA 21 CFR Part 117

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are identification tags critical for starch slurry orifice plates?

They provide permanent verification of plate specifications (bore diameter, beta ratio) and calibration data essential for accurate flow measurement, preventing measurement errors that could affect product quality and process efficiency.

What information must be included on these identification tags?

Minimum required information: orifice plate ID number, nominal bore diameter, beta ratio (d/D), material specification, calibration date, flow coefficient (C or K value), and manufacturer identification.

How should identification tags be maintained in food processing environments?

Regular visual inspections for legibility, cleaning with food-safe agents only, and verification against maintenance records during scheduled equipment audits to ensure data accuracy and compliance.

Can I contact factories directly?

Yes, each factory profile provides direct contact information.
