Measurement technology for hygienic and sterile processes

Optimal measurement technology – uncompromising quality

In the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, hygiene, reproducibility and flexibility are decisive factors for efficient as well as safe production with a high degree of automation. VEGA offers world-class level and pressure measurement technology. 

Hygiene, speed and flexibility. Standardised hygienic adaptors.

Standardised hygienic adapters

The standardised connections of the hygienic adaptors, which guarantee high system availability, can be selected as needed. Installing the adaptors requires only minimal effort. The end-to-end concept allows simple integration and fast maintenance – it also reduces spare parts inventories and production downtime.

No incompatibilities

VEGA sensors have been specially developed for the needs of the pharmaceutical industry, which are fulfilled by securely protected sealing, all-metal housings and wetted parts with a surface finish as fine as 0.3 µm RA.

Good manufacturing practice

Continuous monitoring of all production processes as well as routine inspection and testing of our sensors make us a reliable partner in adhering to good manufacturing practice. The basis for this is our quality management in compliance with ISO 9001 and our environmental management program based on ISO 14001.
Hygiene, speed and flexibility. Perfect cleanability.

Easy cleaning – reliable processes

To help ensure hygienic and sterile drug production processes, VEGA offers materials specially tailored to the strict requirements of the pharmaceutical industry – with all necessary approvals and material properties.

Efficient CIP/SIP cleaning

  • Cleaning in Place (CIP) and Sterilisation in Place (SIP) are methods for cleaning industrial process equipment.
  • During CIP cleaning, different liquids are pumped through the system piping. The cleaning media used are caustic and acidic solutions, some in high concentrations, often at extremely high temperatures.
  • VEGA sensors ensure that all required liquids are always available in sufficient amounts and reliably withstand the complex processes.
