Food Industry

An interesting development! Norditec is a key supplier of hygienic solutions to the food industry.

In the food industry, it is crucial to focus on hygiene (sanitary design), CIP/SIP compatibility (cleaning and sterilization in place), and gentle product handling. This is reflected in the products Norditec offers.

Specialized products for the food industry

The INTGALL M-series is specifically developed for reliable control of pumps in water and wastewater systems. These float switches function as a simple but effective trigger to start the pump when the level rises and stop it when the desired low level is reached.

Function: Direct control of single-phase pumps or as a pilot signal for three-phase motor starters and controllers.

Durability: Constructed to withstand the harsh conditions of continuous immersion in industrial and domestic sumps.

Easy installation: Simple suspension mechanism makes it easy to adjust the switch differential (the distance between start and stop levels).

Special products for Food

1. Hygienic pumps

  • Pumps: The core product, which must meet strict requirements such as 3-A or EHEDG (European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group) standards. They are often designed for easy disassembly and cleaning (hygienic design).
  • Lobe pumps – ZP1 series: Ideal for thick, viscous products or products containing solids (e.g., fruit pieces, meat, or vegetables). They are known for their gentle pumping action, which is crucial for preserving product integrity and texture.
  • Progressive cavity pumps – Rotor M: Suitable for pumping viscous media and slurries, providing a steady, pulsation-free flow. They are available in sanitary designs.
  • Centrifugal pumps (food grade): Used for transferring thinner liquids such as water, juice, milk, or thin sauces in large volumes.

2. Plate Heat Exchangers

  • Temperature control: Crucial for food production to ensure product safety and process efficiency.
  • Pasteurization and sterilization: Heating liquids such as milk and juice to eliminate pathogens.
  • Cooling: Rapid cooling of products after heat treatment to preserve quality and prevent bacterial growth.
  • Heat recovery: Increases energy efficiency in the plant by recycling thermal energy between process streams.

3. Valves and automation

  • Hygienic valves (ball valves, butterfly valves): Designed with minimal dead volume to prevent bacterial growth and ensure effective CIP cleaning.
  • Flow meters – magnetic, vortex, mass flow meters: Accurate measurement of ingredients and finished products is essential for quality assurance and cost control.
  • Pressure transmitters: For monitoring pressure in piping systems during processing and CIP.

4. CIP solutions (Clean-In-Place)

  • Hygienic pumps: Specifically developed for reliable circulation of detergents and cleaning agents during processing.
  • CIP-compatible valves and instruments: Designed to withstand high temperatures and chemical exposure while maintaining a sterile environment.
  • Hygienic design: A crucial feature for all products that reduces cleaning time – which can account for up to 30% of total operating time – and ensures maximum product safety.
