26/10/2016 RS Group plc
RS Components (RS), the trading brand of Electrocomponents plc, the global distributor for engineers, has created a dedicated section on its website devoted to helping customers in the highly demanding food and beverage sector.With quality, branding, efficiency and legislation all vying for equal attention in the food industry, engineers, plant managers and designers can often struggle to stay abreast of the latest developments. Thanks to this new portal, RS is in a perfect position to give customers not only the products they need to help them do their jobs, but also the support and interaction to make the best possible use of them.
The comprehensive product range covers a diverse array of needs, such as process control equipment, including Vega level sensors for the measurement of level, point level and pressure, as well as equipment and software for integration into process control systems. Other technical solutions include preventative-maintenance aids, such as Spot Thermal Cameras from FLIR, which can be used to measure hot spots or leaks in storage areas to ensure the correct temperature conditions are being maintained.
For personal protection (PPE) and hygiene, RS offers a wide range of clothing solutions including gloves, boots and single-use hygiene workwear. Of particular interest are products from PAL, the market leader in hygiene workwear. They include wipes, coats, facemasks, aprons, hair nets and shoe covers designed specifically with anti-contamination/shedding materials for use in hygienic and cleanroom environments.
Continuing on the hygiene theme, its range of Ambersil cleaners and lubricants are ideal for demanding applications. The range includes cleaners, degreasers, wipes, lubricants, greases and oils, all of which are NSF registered.
Many of these products can be examined and discussed further in the DesignSpark section of the RS website. This contains information, advice, forums and videos to help food industry personnel improve their knowledge of not just the market, but also the equipment they are looking to deploy.
With the food industry facing new challenges and legislation every day, the RS website is the one-stop-shop for everything engineers, designers, plant managers and company owners need to know.
