Powder spool sampler for dairy and food processors

Efficiently manage powder quality with a robust spool sampler designed for seamless integration into your production line, ensuring precise and consistent sampling even in challenging environments.

Facilitates Precise Powder Sampling and Quality Control

The GEA Powder Spool Sampler is a specialized solution for precise powder sampling in dairy, food, and nutraceutical production environments. It operates pneumatically, making it inherently safe for explosive conditions. Designed for easy integration, it can be installed with weld-in-place or tri-clover clamp fixings, allowing flexible positioning throughout your plant. Supporting both manual and automated operations via PLC integration, it minimizes operator involvement through remote sampling capabilities. This system excels in closed-loop sample collection, maintaining product integrity while ensuring consistent sample sizes. Its hygienic design features metal-detectable components and allows easy cleaning for sanitary applications. Interchangeable with existing GEA auger-based samplers, it fits seamlessly into existing powder processing lines and contributes to efficient quality control and product consistency.
