As part of our ongoing efforts to provide the most durable, sanitary products, Anderson has begun shipping molded cord-sets with all Level transmitter (SL,SX, LD, LA, & TDL) orders requesting cable. The new molded corset improves upon the quick disconnect by providing a waterproof, IP68 & 69k, durable connector. This 4 conductor cord set has both a foil shield and a drain wire to provide superior noise immunity. The PVC jacket remains flexible from -40C to 80C while the Stainless nut, O-ring sealed coupling and gold plated contacts assure a good strong connection in the wettest of environments. Best of all, Anderson has provided this up grade at no additional cost!

VAT Pasteurizer Electronic Controls Package – PMO compliance complete

On August 5, 2010 Anderson received official word that the VAT Pasteurizer Electronic Controls Package had received it’s official memorandum of compliance. FDA Milk Safety issued M-b-364 covering the package. Details are as follows:



The Anderson AJ-300 Series VAT Pasteurization Combination Electronic Control

Package has been reviewed and found to comply with the applicable provisions of the

Grade “A” Pasteurized Milk Ordinance (PMO) when used on a VAT Pasteurizer to

monitor the product and airspace temperatures for recording on a circular chart. In

addition, the package provides an independent all electronic reference temperature for

both the product and airspace thermometers, eliminating the requirement for the use of

mercury-in-glass thermometers.

“IZMAG” Mag Flowmeter Released!

New ITM-3A Turbidity Sensor released for sale!

We are pleased to announce the introduction of the Negele ITM-3A turbidity sensor, the latest development in our expanding line of application-specific products. This sensor combines our proven “backscattered light” technology with the latest generation of Negele electronics to provide an expanded feature set and simple operator interface.



One of the key new features is the provision of 4 easily selectable ranges, where any two of the standard ranges can be remotely selected via a 24Vdc input. This allows a single unit to be optimally programmed for multiple products in the same process line without sacrificing resolution.



The unit also features a backlit LCD display of the analog output variable in milliamps as well as a percent display of the overall relative turbidity.



Finally, a single switching output with adjustable setpoint and hysteresis is included as a standard feature for local or remote alarming, allowing customers that are doing manual cut-overs to semi-automate that process without the need for a remote display unit.



The ITM-3A will be a great solution anywhere a change in turbidity can be used to signal, alarm, or automate the next step in the process. Applications include phase change detection in dairy and beverage processes, CIP return lines, yeast harvest automation in breweries, and filtration monitoring.



The ITM-3A will complement our proven HT transition sensor, which will continue to be available for simple transition control applications. Please review the attached brochure and pricing information. The ITM-3A in 1.5” and 2” tri-clamp are available immediately at standard 5 day lead-times. 2.5” and 3” tri-clamp units are available at 3-4 week lead-times until demand levels are established.

New ITM-4 Turbidity Monitor released for sale!

As part of our on-going efforts to expand the scope of our application-specific solutions, we are pleased to announce the immediate availability of the Negele ITM-4 turbidity monitor.
