Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for filling beers and other beverages from several tanks through a common line into which fresh water can be fed, this common line leading via valves to the filler, to the residual beverage tank or to the waste water line.
  • the conductance measurement has had its permanent place on the bottle washing machines and the systems for monitoring the concentration of detergent solutions and for the separation of water and detergent solution for several years.
  • the conductance measurement is hardly introduced as a brewing parameter in beer production processes. This is mainly due to the fact that conductance measurements have so far only been carried out directly, i.e. galvanically, in beer production processes. Because the conductance measurement is carried out inductively, a much higher level of hygiene and cleanability is possible.
  • a method for determining the concentrations of liquids by means of an inductive conductivity measurement is known from DE-AS 11 58 727.
  • thermosensor e.g. a platinum temperature sensor
  • the temperature of the liquid flowing through the common line be measured by means of a temperature sensor with a short response time and a small mass.
  • the conductance When the conductance rises to the second switching level, a signal is given to switch from the channel to the residual beer tank, and when the conductance rises to the first switching level, the filler is switched over. The reverse is the case when the conductivity falls.
  • the first switching level is below the fluctuation range of the individual drinks and higher than the second switching level.
  • central monitoring for several fillers is possible and advantageous. It is proposed that the measurement signal be evaluated via a freely programmable control with analog value processing. The corresponding programming allows a further differentiation of the switching value levels to be carried out economically. In addition, in connection with a flow meter, a supply quantity detection with assignment (channel / residual beer / filler) and registration is appropriate.
  • the measuring method according to the invention becomes particularly precise if the valves are controlled via the differences in the measured values of several measuring points.
  • This more complex measured value acquisition and evaluation system is based on a measured value comparison of e.g. two measuring points, e.g. in a filling system, the control of the valve circuits not being specified by absolute values, but based on the percentage deviations of the measured values. These are the measuring points a and b in FIG. 5.
  • FIG. 1 a schematic flow diagram of a filling plant, the method according to the invention being used,
  • FIG. 2 a diagram for the guide values of process water and non-alcoholic beverages
  • FIG. 3 a bar chart with the guide values of several types of beer
  • FIG. 5 a schematic flow diagram of a filling system, the valves being controlled by the differences in the conductance values of several measuring points.
  • FIG 1 several pressure tanks (6,7,8,9) are shown, which open into a common line. Fresh water (10) can also be fed into this line.
  • the liquid in the line is pumped by a pump (11) through a short-time heater (12) and via a valve (3) to the bottle filler (5).
  • the liquid can also be conveyed into the sewer or into a residual beer tank via a valve (2) or a valve (4).
  • the liquid Shortly before the liquid reaches the valves (2), (4) and (3), it passes the measuring point of the measuring device (1), which is connected to a recorder (13). The conductivity and the temperature are recorded and evaluated as analog signals between 0 and 20 milliamps on the line recorder (13).
  • the temperature coefficients between the filling temperature and the reference temperature were determined for all beers and non-alcoholic beverages in the laboratory using a suitable measuring device.
  • the measured TK values of these beverages fluctuate depending on the type by about 0.07% per degree Celsius around an average value of 2.32 V degrees Celsius, which was set digitally precisely for the conductance measurements.
  • each type can be reliably distinguished from water and the mixed phase water-beer.
  • the absolute values of the beers fluctuate considerably within a variety on different filling days and from different pressure tanks, in some cases up to 10%. The reason for this is probably the brewing process parameters, especially in the brewhouse area.
  • Figure 4 the original wort content of some beers is shown in percent.
  • the reference numerals used correspond to those in FIG. 3.
  • the comparative analyzes of the original wort contents with the conductance values of the beer types reveal no connection between the original wort content and the conductance value. The conductance measurement cannot be traced back to a wort content measurement.
  • the grouping can look as follows:
  • Group 1 all alcohol-free switching level 1 at 500 ⁇ S / cm drinks
  • the inductive conductance measurement offers an alternative which is at least as precise, but considerably less expensive.
  • the original wort content fluctuates due to the brewing process and also overlaps within the beer types, as shown in FIG. 4.
  • the master value measuring system can be expanded as required.
  • a warning is given in the event of cleaning agent or disinfectant contamination.
  • Wort cooling (separation of water, wort, water) Filtration (separation of water, beer, beer, water), bottle filler (separation of water, beer, beer, water, non-alcoholic beverages, water) and barrel / keg filling (separation of water, beer , Beer, water) sensible and economical from the same procedural point of view. '
  • FIG. 5 shows monitoring of the filling process with the aid of differential value processing.
  • the reference symbols have the same meaning as in FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 5 there is a central control cabinet (29) to which the conductance measuring devices (1) and the temperature sensor (6) are connected, and an operating housing (30) with a connection the central control (29) is shown.
  • the conductance is measured at several different points a, b of the line and the difference between the measured values is formed.
  • the measured value taken from the valve is corrected by the temperature factor beforehand.
  • the temperature of the liquid is measured by the thermal sensor (6) near this measuring point b.
  • the conductivity measuring system fulfills the requirements of beer monitoring, is maintenance-free and reliable, can be fully cleaned and sterilized and can be installed in product lines. A distinction can be made between beer types if the brewery's production process allows beer with beer of different conductance levels to be pushed out.
