Ecolab Certificates
ifm electronic, one of the internationally leading sensor manufacturers, pro­vides application solutions for all important areas of the food industry. The sensors in this market segment are exposed to extremely rugged environ­ments. Therefore the requirements for the sensors used are extremely high.
ifm electronic had independent tests on the sensors of the efector m T-series, OG wetline, OJ as well as the ProcessLine splitters and AS-i flatcables carried out by an independent supplier of cleaning agents, the company Ecolab. In their certificates ifm electronic and Ecolab certify the resistance of the tested ifm sensors to the detergents used in the test under the specified conditions.

The goal of this test is to simulate high-pressure cleaning requirements as for example those given in the food industry.
In the test fixture, the module and the connector are subjected to a water jet of 80 - 100 bar at a tem­perature of 80 °C.
The duration of each cleaning cycle is 30 seconds.
The industrial spray nozzle is located at a de­fined angle and at a distance of 10 to 15 cm from the test sample.
