5 Brewery 1 Level measurement during filling and emptying of the silos 2 Density measurement to control OG (original gravity) Continuous level measurement is vital for optimal inventory management of malt and other raw materials, as well as for preventing overfilling of silos. Instrumentation has to cope with high levels of noise, vibration and dust. Preferred device: SITRANS LR560 High frequency 78 GHz FMCW non-contacting technology ensures reliable operation in dusty environments Up to 100 m range Lens antenna eliminates large parabolic or horn antennas, providing a narrow 4 beam angle Unaffected by changing material characteristics Reduced maintenance through integrated purge connection for easy cleaning of heavy buildup without removing the sensor 3 Reliable measurements with high dust level Continuous dosing of yeast To optimize fermentation conditions, the amount of yeast to be added to the wort is measured by mass flow. This is necessary to control the right ratio of wort to yeast. Preferred device: SITRANS FC430 High accuracy of mass flow measurement Designed for use in heat and vibration Compact design facilitates mounting in tight spaces Hygienic design and certificates To reach the desired level of original gravity in optimal time, continuous monitoring of density during wort cooking is mandatory and allows optimal use of brewhouse facilities. Preferred device: SITRANS FC430 High accuracy for in-line density measurement Designed for use in heat and vibration Compact design facilitates mounting in tight spaces Hygienic design and certificate 4 High precision combined with hygienic safety Temperature measurement in fermentation vessels The temperature at various heights in the vessels need to be monitored to control the fermentation progress. Preferred device: SITRANS TS300 Stainless steel construction Hygienic design and certificates Various process connections available Precise temperature measurement for optimized fermentation control High-precicion measurement even at harsh process conditions 5

7 5 Control of flow to optimize filtration results 6 Measurement of inlet and outlet pressure The brightness of the beer is a major consumer expectation. Optimal filtration quality needs constant flow of beer to the filtration system. Preferred device: SITRANS F M MAG 1100F 0.2 % accuracy Modular design: one transmitter for various sensors; so minimal spare parts are needed Hygienic design and certificates 7 Minimal need of spare parts Final blending of beer To get the desired gravity in the final beer, water is blended into the stream of beer. Controlling the right ratio is essential both for consumer expectations as well as for customs regulations. Preferred device: SITRANS F M MAG 1100F 0.2 % accuracy Modular design: one transmitter for various sensors; so minimal spare parts are needed Hygienic design and certificates Minimal need of spare parts To make sure that the filter is not blocked and to optimize filtration runtimes, pressure is monitored at the inlet and outlet of the filter to keep the pressure difference in a predefined range. Preferred device: SITRANS P300 Front flush membrane for hygienic safety Stainless steel housing for easy handling in wet atmospheres High long-term stability Large variety of hygienic process connections 8 Hygienics safety combined with long-term stability Level measurement in bright beer tanks Level measurement is crucial for optimal use of storage capacities and optimized usage of filling equipment. Level devices used in this application must meet the highest hygienic requirements. Preferred device: SITRANS LR250HEA (Hygienic encapsulated antenna) Encapsulated antenna with front flush sealing is most suitable for CIP and SIP Measurement results unaffected by CO 2 content in gas atmosphere of a tank Large variety of hygienic process connections and diameters Accurate level measurement improves filling efficiency 7
