You might not see them, but in every hygienic processing plant — from dairy facilities to pharmaceutical cleanrooms — safety and pressure valves are quietly doing their job to keep operations running smoothly. These components might not be glamorous, but they’re vital: protecting equipment, maintaining product integrity, and ensuring compliance with strict industry standards.

In our latest article, we break down the critical role these valves play in hygienic environments, how they help avoid dangerous overpressure scenarios, and what to consider when selecting them for your system. We also explore how valve technology has evolved, with smarter, more compact designs that support easy maintenance, faster diagnostics, and cleaner operations.

Whether you're managing sterile fluid paths in the pharmaceutical industry or maintaining pressure balance in food production, this guide is a must-read for process engineers and technical teams alike.

Ever wonder what keeps your heat exchanger running reliably day after day?

The answer might be simpler than you think. It's all about the gasket. These small but crucial components ensure optimal performance, minimise leaks, and play a major role in maintaining uptime.

Over time, heat, pressure, and regular use can cause gaskets to wear out. And when they do, it’s essential to replace them correctly to avoid costly downtime or performance issues. 

In our latest article, we walk you through how to replace gaskets on Alfa Laval heat exchangers, step by step.

From removing old gaskets and fitting clip-on replacements to adjusting special plate types and preparing the stack before installation, we cover all the essential details to help ensure a perfect seal.

It’s a practical guide designed for maintenance engineers, technicians, or anyone responsible for keeping processing equipment running efficiently.

Whether you’re working with open or closed fermentation vessels, your choice will depend on factors such as the starting and final products, as well as the fermentation type – yeast, mash, cold, or warm.

Here are some key tips for boosting efficiency and consistency in fermentation:
🔹Tank installation: When fitting sensors into insulated tanks, always account for wall depth.
🔹Pressure fermentation: Vessels under pressure must be carefully monitored to prevent overpressure.
🔹Temperature control: Accurate fermentation temperatures are critical and vary depending on the yeast or fermentation type – Temperature Sensors are essential here.
🔹Overflow prevention: Point Level Sensors protect against costly overflows.
🔹CO₂ monitoring: Pressure Sensors help track CO₂ levels during fermentation.

With Anderson-Negele instrumentation from ITS, you can achieve precise control at every stage of your process.
