Industry

For years, Gems Sensors has been providing solutions for the dynamic needs of the food & beverage industry. Gems Sensors manufactures a wide variety of level sensors and switches to detect liquid level in an array of applications within this industry.

Having the capability to detect level is extremely important in the food and beverage industry. If liquid levels are too high, a problem can result. Conversely, if levels are too low this could cause an issue as well. The level sensing products that Gems Sensors customizes and manufactures are used in a variety of different applications including food warming, ice making, coffee making and beverage dispensing.

Gems Sensors also supports the winemaking industry with products and solutions to control and monitor level and temperature for glycol chillers, pressure and temperature for barrel cleaning systems, as well as environmental control of temperature and humidity for storage.

Gems Sensors designs products that meet the stringent requirements of food safety agency approvals.
Applications Include:

Beverage Dispensing
Coffee Making
Food Warming
Ice Making
Water Dispensing
Wine making

Since 1955, Gems Sensors has earned a solid reputation for accuracy and dependability in military marine and commercial marine services. Gems Sensors marine products are approved and qualified to MIL-L-23886, the military specification for fluid level sensors. Other military qualifications include MIL-S-901C, Shock Test High Impact Shipboard Machinery, Equipment and Systems…MIL-STD-167, Mechanical Vibration of Shipboard Equipment Vibration...Inclination, Bureau Veritas, Lloyds, ABS and USCG. Commercial vessel approvals include UL, CSA, and FM. 

Gems Sensors marine sensors are built purposefully rugged to accommodate harsh conditions including turbulent liquids, liquids containing foreign material, liquid interfaces, high temperature and high-pressure fluids. Construction materials include bronze, 304 or 316 SS, Monel™ and copper-nickel alloys. Standard floats are of Buna N for oils, stainless steel for high temps, and Hycel (epoxy) for high pressures. Mounting flanges and electrical connections per Navy specifications are routine at Gems Sensors & Controls.

The selection process for incorporating electronic controls into a boiler system can be daunting and can vary depending on the application. For the simplest of applications, a basic safety relay may be all that is needed. For more complex applications, feature rich controllers that can assist the end user in troubleshooting the heating system are a necessity. No matter what your application, specifying and designing in a controller that meets local and federal regulations is a must. Gems Sensors, manufacturer of the industry respected Warrick Line of boiler control systems, developed this article to help those within the boiler industry understand the codes that cover boiler safety controls. 

The days of temperamental boiler control systems have all but passed. Nation-wide adoption of safe installation practices, regular maintenance and technological advancements are edging boilers into the category of set it – forget it. This is not to say that accidents have been wholly eliminated. They do still occur, but fortunately the introduction of critical operational and safety controls has significantly lowered the frequency.

 Applications Include:

• Boilers
• Commercial Refrigeration
• Cooling Towers
• Mobile Refrigeration Units
• Server Farm Cooling

Effective monitoring, cooling, and energy management are key to ensuring data center reliability and minimizing costs. By focusing on issues like temperature and humidity, and employing proper cooling, failures are prevented. Additionally, energy efficiency reduces costs and environmental effects. Setra Systems and Gems Sensors offer extensive support with a broad range of products for these facilities
