Inmec Brix Sensors in the sugar beet manufacturing process

 

In a vacuum pan, uniform crystallization, cycle after cycle, is one of the most important and critical phases in sugar manufacturing process. Reliable and repeatable Brix sensor provides a foundation for accurate overall Pan control to obtain highest crystal growth and optimized production economy. Brix sensor-based seeding launches crystallization repeated at optimum supersaturation point. After seeding, towards to the finished massequite, Digital Microwave based Brix sensor provides Brix value including both dissolved and already crystallized sucrose. Only total Brix will lead to the optimum process control of a vacuum pan in order to obtain high production efficiency.

Inmec adaptive Brix measuring algorithm covers wide °Bx measuring range required in vacuum pan control. It also facilitates pan control with high tolerance of juice purity variations often seen in juice fed to the pan during the campaign, especially often seen towards the end it.
