Trace Oxygen Measurement in Pipes

Oxygen Probe Integrated in Metal Flow-Through Connector FTM-PSt6

An oxygen exchange window for trace oxygen measurement is integrated in a metal flow-through connector. The FTM can be integrated in pipes with o.d. 6 mm or other diameters using the respective adapters. The oxygen probe is very robust and long-term stable. It can be cleaned by CIP (Cleaning in place 2 % NaOH, + 80 °C) and also stands steam sterilization (+ 130 °C, 1.5 atm).

  • Online oxygen measurement in perfusion systems
  • No consumption of oxygen
  • Signal independent of flow velocity
  • Autoclavable, SIP (+ 130 °C, 1.5 atm) & CIP (2 % NaOH, + 80 °C)
  • Polarization-free
  • Long-term stability

Applications

In-line Oxygen Measurement in Brewing and Beverage Industry

Even low concentrations of oxygen influence shelf-life and the taste of certain beverages. Due to the extraordinary low detection limit and outstanding accuracy of PreSens trace oxygen sensors, the quality of oxygen-sensitive products such as beer, wine and soft drinks is secured.
The optical sensors have – compared to standard electrodes – a very fast response time and they are very easy to maintain.
