    Abstract: A cooling tower for cooling process water—in particular, of a filling plant—and a method for its monitoring and control are described. The cooling tower comprises sensors for locally monitoring at least one consumable parameter and at least one machine parameter relating to the transport and/or cooling of the process water, a data output for transmitting measurement data obtained by means of such monitoring by sensor from the cooling tower, and at least one data input for receiving external control data for controlling the cooling tower. By means of the measurement data and the received control data, the cooling tower can be controlled in a programmed manner and enables remote-controlled optimization of cooling processes and the thereby resulting plant cooling.

    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a supply system for generating chlorine dioxide and for mixing it into water in a filling system or a similar system for food production, and to a method for monitoring and controlling the supply system. This comprises sensors for monitoring at least one consumable material parameter and at least one machine parameter relating to the feed and/or concentration of the chlorine dioxide into/in the water, a data output for transmitting measurement data from the supply system obtained by means of such sensor-based monitoring, and a data input for receiving external control data for controlling the supply system. By means of the measurement data and the received control data, the supply system can be controlled in a programmed manner, and enables remote-controlled optimization of processes for producing, distributing, and using chlorine dioxide in a filling system.

    Abstract: A tunnel pasteurizer for pasteurization of filling products and a method for the monitoring and control thereof are described. The tunnel pasteurizer comprises sensors for locally monitoring at least one consumable parameter and at least one machine parameter relating to the transport and/or the temperature control of the filling products, a data output for transmitting measurement data obtained by such sensor monitoring from the tunnel pasteurizer, and at least one data input for receiving external control data for controlling the tunnel pasteurizer. By means of the measurement data and the received control data, the tunnel pasteurizer can be controlled in a programmed manner and enables remote-controlled optimization of pasteurization and maintenance processes.
