Milk Quality Monitor

Bask Control Systems Limited

Putting Quality into Process Control

The new application for the BASK Milk Quality Measurement Meter is outlined below.

If you ever suffer from poor quality and contamination in milk products then the BASK Milk Quality Monitor is for you.If your process relies on top quality product for manufacturing cheese, potable milk products and even quality powder products then consider the BASK Milk Quality Measurement Meter.

This unit samples the Milk in-line every second, compares the value to the norm and can either stop the product flow or divert until the systen detects that the milk quality has returned to the correct value.

The trend below shows the BASK Milk Quality Monitor following the milk in transit to its destination. The milk fat drops from 3.40% to 3.09% within 4 seconds, some 50 seconds later it recovers to 3.40%. This happened during a Silo change and it was assumed that a slug of possible CIP was locked within the silo manifold (it may have been only water), but the milk was contaminated and any milk bottled would have been out of specification. This contamination that lasted less than one minute could have caused a recall of the total produduction for the product made as the point of contamination would have been unkown without the BASK Milk Quality Monitor installed.
