SARPI ThinkTech chose the Horner XL4 Prime-C112 to completely revamp their press filter application from an electro-mechanical cabinet into a fully automated cabinet.

The main aims of this revamp included.:

To Save time
To increase the ease of use for the press filter
To allow for communication using SCADA

The XL4 Prime’s All-in-One solution, with the built in HMI and I/O’s made it the best choice for SARPI ThinkTech for this application. The colour touch screen, data logging, easy communications and native Modbus TCP protocol were more advantages of the XL4 Prime.

71Brewing selected the Horner XL10 OCS along with SmartRail series I/O to control each of the brewing vessels in their brewery, monitoring temperature and pressure associated with each vessel.
