AutoJet Technologies Introduces SprayCheck™ Monitoring System

February 2006 - AutoJet Technologies, a division of Spraying Systems Co., has introduced its SprayCheck™ Monitoring System for verifying critical spray applications of liquid coatings. The AutoJet SprayCheck Monitoring System, equipped with SprayCheck Sensors, verifies that your system is delivering precision spray for your most critical coating and dosing applications.

"The SprayCheck Monitoring System was developed to help meat and poultry processors verify their post-lethality interventions", commented Bill Kohley, Vice President of Spraying Systems Co.'s AutoJet Technologies division. "Working with an AutoJet Spray Controller, the SprayCheck sensor verifies the application of antimicrobials on every product passing the spray station."

About the AutoJet SprayCheck Monitoring System:
The AutoJet SprayCheck Monitoring System is designed around Spraying System Co.'s PulsaJet® automatic spray nozzles, which are controlled by the AutoJet Spray Controller. Here's how the system works:

  • A miniature sensor is mounted near the orifice of a PulsaJet automatic spray nozzle to optically detect a spray pattern emerging from the spray tip
  • Each "spray" signal sent by the AutoJet Spray Controller is confirmed with a "spray present" signal from the SprayCheck sensor to verify spray application
  • If the controller does not receive a "spray present" signal from the SprayCheck sensor for each "spray" signal sent to the nozzle, alarms can be activated, special marking of non-conforming products can be activated or the production line can be shut down
  • Each spray cycle is documented and logged into the controller's memory

The SprayCheck Monitoring System is perfect for verifying critical spray applications such as:

  • Coating meat and poultry products with antimicrobial agents
  • Adding flavorings or moisture to food products
  • Applying coating to pharmaceutical products
  • Anywhere absolute certainty of spray performance is required
