Key applications
The Parsum IPP 80-P is used in food and pharmaceutical applications for endpoint detection in batch granulation process, and for real time monitoring of continuous manufacturing processes. It is applied in unit operations such as grinding, agglomeration, granulation, coating and sieving.
This probe has been designed to measure the particle size and size distribution of powders, pellets or granules in pharmaceutical and food processes. It is a valuable PAT tool that can be easily installed in areas where cleanliness, cleanability and hygiene are important requirements.
The probe can be used for conventional batch processes or for monitoring continuous production processes and includes enhanced self-diagnostic features. It is ATEX certified for Zone 0/20 operation.
