In measurement technology, particularly in hygienic applications, the balance between necessary technology and cost control is crucial. Accuracy and cleanability are often critical factors. Choosing the appropriate flow measurement method is challenging, as each method has specific advantages and disadvantages and requires precise measurements.

High-accuracy devices are usually more expensive, while less accurate devices can be more cost-effective. Additionally, the devices must obtain specific approvals such as EHEDG, but often compliance according FDA or KTW is sufficient to be used in hygienic systems. Modern Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI) with advanced configuration capabilities facilitate deployment in various industrial settings.

The presentation will demonstrate how the correct selection of a flow meter can achieve an optimal solution that is both technically efficient and cost-effective.
