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
Part of a Complete Measurement Solution
Ceramat is typically used together with:
- SensoGate retractable fittings – for safe sensor handling
- Sensors (pH, ORP, conductivity, oxygen)
- Transmitters and analyzers
Together, this creates a measurement point that is:
- Accurate
- Maintainable
- Designed for continuous operation
