Equipment at Risk for Contamination

Equipment at Risk for Contamination

Depending on what you manufacture, contamination risks could be present in many areas of your production facility. For that reason, choosing equipment that is designed to be contamination resistant is key.

Considerations include:

  • Bench scales: They are often placed in the middle of hygienically sensitive checkweighing or portioning areas.
  • Floor scales:  Often used in wet and harsh environments, are confronted with heavy loads, rough handling and exposure to waste material.
  • Weigh modules:  Required to deliver accurate weighing results while also withstanding regular wash-down procedures. 

Why Contamination Prevention is Critical

You work hard to produce high quality products that your customers love. But what would be the implications of a product being contaminated? In many cases this can lead to a product recall, brand and reputation damage, and worst case harm to customers.

It is for these reasons companies go to great lengths to prevent such contamination risks. The Pocket Guide offers details including contamination risk hot spots within your equipment and how to prevent each.

How to prevent contamination?

Utilizing equipment and materials that are resistant to bacteria, such as smooth stainless steel surfaces, helps to mitigate areas where bacteria can thrive. Additionally, being mindful of things like corners, gaps, crevices, groves and attachments such as feet – can be helpful to combat the growth of bacteria. Regular and thorough cleaning along with hygienically designed equipment is imperative to preventing contamination. 

What makes a bench scale hygienic?

There are several things to consider to ensure your bench scale is hygienic by design, including: stainless steel construction, hygienically designed feet, open platter design, hygienically protected terminal buttons. 

What makes a floor scale hygienic?

There are several things to consider to ensure your floor scale is hygienic by design, including: stainless steel construction, continuous welding, liftable deck, proper drainage system, protected cabling and load cells, hygienically protected terminal buttons.

What makes weigh modules hygienic?

There are several things to consider to ensure your weigh modules are hygienic by design, including: surfaces are self-draining, no niches in connections points such as bolts, sealed cabling all the way to the junction box.
