Food and Beverage
Thomas Products brings precision-engineered sensor technology to the food and beverage industry, delivering the performance, reliability, and hygiene compliance needed for processing consumables at scale. From food canning machinery to multi-level fluid monitoring in tanks storing dairy, wine, beer, and other consumables, our sensors are trusted by manufacturers for safe, sanitary, and efficient operations.

In food and beverage production, maintaining strict process control and sanitary conditions is essential—not only for efficiency but for consumer safety. Thomas Products offers sensors and switches that are compatible with CIP (Clean-In-Place) and SIP (Sterilize-In-Place) systems, making them ideal for use in hygienic environments. Whether monitoring fill levels in storage tanks or controlling flow in high-speed canning and bottling lines, our components deliver dependable, repeatable performance with food-grade materials and construction.
Our Model 4000 custom multilevel switches and 1100/1200 series level sensors are designed to withstand aggressive washdowns and resist corrosion from various food-grade fluids. Engineered with FDA-compliant materials, they meet or exceed industry standards for hygiene and reliability, enabling food processors to maintain product consistency and minimize downtime caused by sensor failure or calibration drift.
Application
At Thomas Products, we understand that precision and purity are non-negotiable in the food and beverage sector. That’s why our level and flow sensors are designed to integrate seamlessly into a wide variety of applications—from dairy pasteurization and brewing systems to syrup mixing, wine fermentation, and bulk fluid storage. With robust chemical compatibility and customizable configurations, our sensors are built to support long-term performance in demanding, washdown-prone environments.

Beverage Tanks & Fermentation Vessels
Our Model 4000 multilevel switches are widely used in the brewing and winemaking industries to monitor and control liquid levels in fermentation tanks. These sensors support multiple setpoints within a single tank, allowing producers to optimize filling, fermentation, and drainage with accuracy and confidence.

Food Processing & Canning Machinery
In high-throughput canning lines, Thomas Products’ 1100/1200 series level sensors are integrated to manage fluid flow, prevent overfill, and ensure process continuity. Their rugged design and hygienic materials allow them to perform reliably under extreme temperatures and frequent clean-in-place operations, supporting consistent output and compliance with food safety standards.
