Dissolved Gas Measuring Module
The combined CO2 and O2 measuring module CarboQC ME with Option O2 (Plus) determines the true amount of dissolved carbon dioxide and dissolved oxygen in beverages. Combine a CarboQC ME with Option O2 (plus) with a wide range of Anton Paar instruments to get the beverage analysis you need in one measuring cycle, with minimum sample preparation required. This teamwork brings quick and efficient results and saves space in the lab. The measuring module can only be used in the Anton Paar Generation M measuring systems PBA-S, PBA-SI, PBA-SD, PBA-SID, PBA-B, and PBA-W.
High accuracy, more benefit
• CO2 measurement based on the patented Multiple Volume Expansion method guarantees repeatability standard deviations of 0.005 vol
• No influence of other dissolved gases such as air or nitrogen
• Accurate and repeatable O2 results because of the optical oxygen sensor
A strong partner
• Reliable CO2 and O2 results, even out of small packages with a sample volume of only 150 mL
• The measured CO2 content ist automatically used to correct parameters such as density to match your reference method - degassing is not required
• The PFD filling device transfers sample from the package into the measuring chamber without any loss of CO2 and O2
TPO quick check
• The TPO (total package oxygen) value can be calculated via the Option O2 (Plus) in the PBA Generation M systems.
Fit for the future
• The standard configuration of beverage analysis with a DMA™ Generation M density meter, CarboQC ME, and PFD filling device is a solid investment
• Anton Paar’s modular concept allows the flexible extension of measuring modules, e.g. Alcolyzer, pH ME, HazeQC ME, etc.
• Create your system based on your requirements
