Ceramat – Automatic Cleaning and Calibration for Reliable Process Measurements

Keep Your Sensors Accurate Without Manual Intervention

In many processes, maintaining measurement accuracy is not just about the sensor – it is about how well it is cleaned and calibrated over time.

Manual routines are often:

  • Inconsistent
  • Time-consuming
  • Dependent on operators

This leads to measurement drift, reduced reliability, and increased maintenance effort.

Ceramat automates cleaning and calibration, ensuring that your sensors deliver stable and reliable data – without manual handling.

Designed for Automated Sensor Maintenance in Continuous Operation

Ceramat is a system for automatic cleaning, calibration, and adjustment of process sensors, typically used together with retractable fittings such as SensoGate.

The system performs predefined sequences:

  • Sensor is retracted from the process
  • Cleaned using controlled rinsing
  • Calibrated using buffer solutions
  • Reinserted into operation

These routines can be scheduled or triggered based on process conditions.

This means your measurement point is continuously maintained – without interrupting production.

Built to Remove Variability From Your Maintenance Routines

In many installations, the challenge is not whether maintenance is performed – but how consistently it is done.

Ceramat standardises this process:

  • Automated cleaning cycles
    Removes deposits and fouling before they affect measurement quality
  • Automatic calibration and adjustment
    Ensures that sensors remain within specification over time
  • Controlled handling of buffer and rinse media
    Provides repeatable and traceable calibration conditions
  • Programmable sequences and intervals
    Adapts maintenance routines to your specific process
  • Integration with retractable fittings (SensoGate)
    Enables safe and automated sensor handling

Where Automated Calibration Makes a Real Difference

You will typically benefit from Ceramat when:

  • Measurement accuracy is critical for process control or compliance
  • Sensors are exposed to fouling or unstable conditions
  • Manual calibration is difficult to perform consistently
  • Documentation and traceability are required

Typical applications include:

  • Chemical and petrochemical processes
  • Water and wastewater treatment
  • Food and beverage production
  • Pharmaceutical processes

What This Means for Your Operation

When cleaning and calibration become automated, the impact is immediate:

  • More consistent and reliable measurement data
  • Reduced dependency on manual routines
  • Lower maintenance workload for operators
  • Improved documentation and repeatability
  • Reduced risk of measurement drift and process deviations
