The manufacturing process of beer is very complex and requires various types of quality control in all stages of production, especially maintaining the correct temperatures of products in tanks used in the fermentation process.

Chopp Boreal develops, produces and sells products with high standards of quality, from the choice of the raw material to the delivery of the final product. With this, the remote management of temperatures is a feature that ensures that the draft beer achieves all the established criteria. And it was by means of Sitrad PRO, Full Gauge Controls’ software for the remote management of temperature controllers manufactured by it, that Chopp Boreal achieved that goal.

Currently, the company counts on more than 40 MT-512E LOG model controllers installed at various points of the process that require stringent levels of control and adequate maintenance of temperature. In the process of brazing, the control level is made by the MT543-E Plus model. All these products are connected to Sitrad PRO.

According to João Fernando Sacilotto, director of Chopp Boreal, the manufacturing of the product passes through several stages. Among them, one of the most important points is the fermentation process, which requires a very precise and accurate temperature control so that it occurs evenly. According to João, the use of Sitrad PRO was a facilitator and also a way to save, since it no longer requires someone to be present at every moment to control the temperature of the tanks. “In addition to saving time, because I no longer need to go to the plant, Sitrad PRO also provides me remote control, with the analyses of data of the system, the pressure of the machines and the quality of the electrical energy used in the manufacturing process, in addition to the storage of this data in all files that allow traceability of the processes,” he explains.

He also emphasizes the importance that the support of the software represents for him and the team responsible for the control of the installations present at the plant: “The technical support team at Full Gauge Controls is excellent and very helpful with any doubts about Sitrad PRO, they always resolve everything quickly and efficiently”.
