Control and measuring instruments

Complex matrix piping makes it difficult for the operator to directly view his product. The installation of VARINLINE® housings into the pipeline system permits integration of measurement and control instruments in the process system and thus, structuring the production process visibly.
The adaptation of the meters in the VARINLINE® housings takes place via VARINLINE® process connections. Many manufacturers have considered this established process connection types and offer meters for installation in VARINLINE® fittings as standard. This ensures hygienic and quick integration of different devices into the process system.

In connection with a standard evaluation unit, the conductive electrode is mainly used for level detection in tanks.

In the current process technology, fixed piping systems lead to permanently closed systems within the single plants which do not allow the operator to have a direct view into the production process. By equipping the pipelines with VARINLINE® housings, control and measurement instruments can be installed within the piping systems to monitor the pr...

Due to its special structural shape, the instrument can be used for the measurement of excess and vacuum pressures.

Sight glasses inserted into the VARINLINE® access unit or into a housing connection flange (for vessels and tanks) are used for visual monitoring of the product.

GEA also made progress in all Mission 30 strategic growth areas. In addition, GEA met key interim targets under its climate plan ahead of schedule. Major milestones in fiscal year 2025 were admission to the DAX index, the award of one of the largest contracts in the company’s history, and streamlining of the corporate structure.
Thanks to a new SmartParc manufacturing site, food processors in the U.K. are cutting their running costs and emissions. With GEA heating and cooling technology at its core, this collaborative production model demonstrates how innovation is accelerating the industry’s net-zero ambitions.
“Brewing eggs is like brewing beer.” It’s the kind of comparison that makes you smile – and then it clicks: Something complex suddenly feels simple. Through this personal film, set in the agricultural heartland of the U.S., we explore precision fermentation and the real-world work it takes to turn an idea into food.
