World first: Aseptic and hygienic load cells from HBM
Load cells are the basic elements of weighing, metering and filling processes. The PW25 and PW27 aseptic load cells enable the integration of modern weighing technology into aseptic or hygienic production processes. The efficiency of production is increased by shorter cleaning times and minimal plant downtime.
PW25 – 'easy-to-clean' load cell
The special design without edges or fissures makes PW25 the ideal choice for applications with particular cleaning requirements. Thanks to its integrated overload protection the single point load cell is virtually indestructible. Learn more more about the easy-to-clean load cell.
PW27 – hygienic load cell
PW27 is the first and only load cell ever that has been officially certified as being compliant with the strict rules of the EHEDG - and is thus suitable for use in the hygienic design of systems. PW27 is easy to clean due to its optimized construction without edges or gaps. More information on the hygienic load cell.
