ALVIM AS11S3 Biofilm Sensor | Biofilm Health Monitoring
- Manufacturer: Alvim
- Category: Water quality, SENSORS, Biofilm Sensors
The ALVIM AS11S3 Biofilm Sensor is a hygienic electrochemical solution specifically designed for the early detection of biofilms in the food, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology industries. Thanks to its flush-mounted design and clamp connection (DIN 32676 / ISO 2852), this device ensures continuous monitoring without compromising leak tightness or facilitating residue buildup, acting as a highly reliable, sanitary drop-in replacement.
Its thermal robustness allows it to withstand peaks of up to +150 °C, making it fully compatible with SIP sterilization and CIP cleaning processes. With complete EMI immunity, the AS11S3 offers stable readings in environments with high machine density, seamlessly integrating into SCADA systems via RS485 and analog outputs.
