Optimass Through local representative Control Engineering S.A., KROHNE beat E+H, ABB and Siemens (Danfoss) with the best technology; the lowest pressure drop on process and a reasonable price. But what really impressed LEONA was the wide flow range Optimass could handle, because production will be doubled over the next 5 years, and our meters could make the transition. Application Note INDUSTRY: BEVERAGE COUNTRY: COLOMBIA METER: OPTIMASS 80S CERVECERÍA BAVARIA S.A. is a beer monopoly in Colombia which ranks number 10 of the largest breweries world wide. They have seven plants in Colombia, dominate the beer market in Ecuador and Panama, and produce more than 60% of beer consumed in Peru. Among their plants in Colombia, they have CERVECERÍA LEONA, one of the more modern plants in South America, built in 1994. Because BAVARIA is focused on increasing efficiency, they want to measure several points of the process to detect process loss. So at LEONA they instigated a pilot trial using mass flow meters for wort in kitchens as well as for bright beer after filtration. Copyright KROHNE, inc. , 2009 OPTIMASS Applications Page No.5
