Importance of O2 Measurement
-
Taste
O2 management ensures a stable taste by preventing negative microbiological changes, especially in beer.
Shelf Life
Excess oxygen shortens shelf life. Stable O2 levels ensure your beverage maintains its taste from bottling to the best-before date.
Oxygen Measurement Parameters- DO (Dissolved Oxygen): Oxygen in the liquid.
- HSO (Headspace Oxygen): Oxygen in the gas above the liquid.
- TPO (Total Package Oxygen): Sum of DO and HSO.

O2 in the Brewing Process
-
Brewhouse
Monitoring the aeration of the wort before fermentation.
Cold Block
- Checking oxygen pickup during fermentation.
- Monitoring the oxygen pickup during filtration.
Packaging
Monitoring oxygen pickup during the packaging process.Laboratory
Final product quality control check.
O2 Content of Carbonated Beverages
- In tanks.
- In pipelines.
- In kegs (pre-mix).
- Dispensing systems.
- In bottles and cans (in combination with ISD 2.0).

How Our O2 Technology Works
-
- The oxygen (O2) sensor spot is in contact with the medium.
- The sensor spot is intensely illuminated by a light source for a short time.
- Depending on the O2 content in the medium, the sensor spot will emit a light signal.
- A photo detector measures this light signal, and the oxygen content is calculated from it.
- The electronics modulate the emitted light intensity and measure a phase shift in the received light.
