Brewery CO₂ AND O₂ Measurement

CO₂ AND O₂ Measurement for the Brewery Industry

For continuous measurement of dissolved oxygen in liquids and gases, OXYTRANS is perfectly suited. The instrument is designed for applications requiring maximum sensitivity and highest accuracy. It is easy to operate and virtually maintenance-free. Electrolyte solutions are not necessary and no oxygen is consumed during the measurement. The optical measurement technology is based on the effect of luminescence quenching, i. e. the radiationless redistribution of excitation energy via molecular interaction.

For continuous measurement of dissolved carbon dioxide in liquids, CARBOTEC TR-PT and CARBOTEC NIR is perfectly suited. For measuring carbon dioxide, the carbonated liquid flows through the sensor head (measurement chamber). everal times per minute the chamber is closed and its volume rapidly increases. This expansion generates a gas phase in the chamber. The large partial pressure difference of CO₂ forces the carbon dioxide out of the sample (liquid in the chamber) into the gas phase.

The new generation of CARBOTEC NIR sensors is based on Attenuated Total Reflection (ATR) technology. Near infrared (NIR) light is transmitted through a sapphire crystal.

OXYTRANS TR

OXYTRANS is a very precise, optical oxygen sensor for measurement of O₂ in deaerated water, wort, beer and CO₂. Dissolved oxygen has adverse impact on flavour stability and shelf life.

OXYTRANS M

OXYTRANS M is a portable, optical oxygen sensor for measurement of O₂ in deaerated water, wort, beer and CO₂. Dissolved oxygen has adverse impact on flavour stability and shelf life.

CARBOTEC TR-PT

CARBOTEC TR-PT is a very precise carbon dioxide sensor for measurement of CO₂ in beer and beer-based mixed drinks. Dissolved CO₂ has a major impact on the quality and taste of the product.

CARBOTEC NIR

CARBOTEC NIR is a very precise, optical carbon dioxide sensor for measurement of “true” CO₂ content in beer and beer-based mixed drinks. Dissolved CO₂ has a major impact on the quality and taste of the product.
