WIKA DMS-FP HYGIENIC DIAPHRAGM MONITORING SYSTEM

The combination of diaphragm seal, pressure measuring instrument and monitoring element is ideally suited for the harshest measuring tasks. The systems can withstand the cleaning vapour temperatures occurring in SIP processes and ensure a sterile connection between the medium to be measured and the diaphragm seal.

The patented diaphragm monitoring has been designed specifically for the highest safety requirements in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. The monitoring element is mainly used for electrical signal transmission of the diaphragm condition. In addition, the diaphragm condition is displayed on a dial with red/green areas.

In the event of a diaphragm rupture, a second internal diaphragm in the pressure measuring instrument ensures the reliable separation of the environment and the process. Diaphragm seals with clamp connection have been specifically developed for use in sterile processes and are integrated into the process by means of a clamp. This ensures the hygienic process integration of the diaphragm monitoring system.

The product WIKA model DMS-FP is protected under granted patent, see e.g. US 2018180505, DE 102016015447, CN 108240885.

Applications:

• Hygienic pressure measurement for the pharmaceutical industry and for aseptic food processing
• Pressure/vacuum measurement on pipelines, fermenters, bioreactors and vessels as well as with processing and transport of high-quality media
