For Hygiene, Comfort and Safety

In recent years, 25mm sockets, clamps, and flange armatures for mounting pH sensors in containers and pipes have become widespread. However, all of these have certain weaknesses. Hamilton now offers a socket for sensors that eliminates the many disadvantages of the armatures used today: no finishing - for example, grinding after welding on a 25 mm socket - is necessary; minimal space requirement - with a total diameter of only 28 mm,the Hygienic Socket™ is the most compact solution for  professionally mounting pH sensors in steel pipes, fermenters, or other containers; smaller pipe diameter - the Hygienic Socket™ is better suited to smaller pipe diameters than previous process connectors; variable mounting - the depth to which a sensor protrudes into the process can be easily adjusted; CIP cleaning, sterilisation, and autoclaving are problem-free with the Hygienic Socket™; only one seal in the process - an O-ring creates a hygienic seal between sensor and process.

Visual checks or replacements require only a few seconds. A second seal - between armature and socket - is not required; and personal safety - during disassembly of the sensor, two ‘Life Guard’ boreholes warn against an uncontrolled escape of process media. With its space-saving design, excellent sterilisability, and simple maintenance, the Hamilton Hygienic Socket™ is, for example, ideally suited for installation in fermenters in the biotechnological and foodstuffs industries. The advantages are also numerous for many other applications with tanks or pipes for water treatment, and in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Last but not least, by equipping a measuring point with the Hygienic Socket™, time and money for cleaning and maintenance work can be spared.
