Water and wastewater treatment plants, lift stations and wells rely on alarm notifications to alert them when critical events happen. Without notifications, incidents can have severe consequences to businesses and end-users. Traditional phone lines are susceptible to lightning, surges and other weather-related events causing undetected communication losses. Cloud-based solutions monitor the status of communications and can notify personnel immediately of a communication failure. They provide 24/7 access to communication status, critical events and data from any laptop or mobile device.
Watch a 20-minute REPLAY webinar where we focus on the risks of using phone line alarm dialers. Hear from our guest speaker, Tim Tomasko with The DAS Group, as he reviews first-hand customer experiences and benefits when switching to a real-time cloud-based solution.

In cheese conversion, shredded cheese and anti-clumping agents (such as corn starch, potato starch, powdered cellulose, or calcium sulfate) are metered into a rotating coating drum wherein individual cheese strands are uniformly coated to prevent particle agglomeration in packaging.
Getting the desired ratio application of an anti-clumping agent to shredded cheese is difficult.
Thayer Scale’s Hygienic Weigh Feeders (HWF), built in accordance with the design principles of 3-A, NSF, and USDA, accurately measure the rate of flow of shredded cheese based on the direct measurement of mass and velocity variables. This flow rate data is then communicated to a Loss-in-Weight feeder such as the Thayer Scale LWF-SC-V Sanitary Vibratory Feeder.
A specialized Thayer Scale control algorithm, Scale Location Compensation (SLC), synchronizes the delivery of the anti-clumping agent with the varying cheese flow, ensuring that the anti-cake agent is delivered both in the correct proportion, as well as in the proper phase of the sometimes intermittent, but constantly fluctuating cheese profile. Thayer Scale’s proprietary, easy-to-clean Loss-in-Weight feeder technology controls aeration and defeats poor flow properties of anti-clumping agents to assure precise, reliable delivery to a single-point or uniformly across a wide band.
Thayer Scale instrumentation seamlessly integrates with the sites’ modern process software facilitating automatic, real-time analysis of base cheese measurement and the delivery of the anti-clumping agent.
Overall, the use of Thayer Scale equipment reduces product quality instances and improves housekeeping with a low, long-term cost of ownership.
Benefits include: reduced sanitation time – quick disassembly without hand tools to optimize sanitation effectiveness. And tolerance to high pressure, high- temperature sanitation evolutions without measurement drift or compromising measurement sensitivity.
Assistance with CGMP, HACCP, and HARCP program compliance.
