AUTOMATION CONTROL SYSTEMS

PLC (programmable logic controller) based control system is employed by breweries in the areas of automation, information and control technology

Automation provide the following advantages:

Completely made of stainless steel consisting of:

• Reduce labor costs
• Better data collection and reporting
• Batch-to-batch comparisons
• Accurate material tracking and batch tracing
• Manually collected data can be expensive and inaccurate
• More consistent product quality
• Reduced energy usage
• Better control and yield
• Reduced batch time by increasing equipment utilization
• Monitor and record variable costs
• Remote control and information available

Most Critical Measuring & Control Points:

• Temperatures, Pressure, Level, Flow, DO, Control Valves
• Raw materials supply
• Quantities
• Water quantities/qualities
• Mash profile
• Lauter tun cycle time
• Brew kettle boil profile
• Yeast temperatures
• Yeast pitching
• Fermentation temperature control
• Batch records for data analysis
