Continuous monitoring of the alcoholic fermentation during the production of beer, wine, or spirits via refractive index measurements.
Optimize and control your fermentation
• Eliminate manual grab sampling of the wort
• Continuously track the progress and determine the endpoint
• Detect any irregularities (wrong temperature control, growth deviations, etc.)
• Ensure fermentation consistency
• Greater end-product uniformity
Reduce servicing and operating costs
• Industry-leading soldered optics need no liquid seals and thus ensure maintenance-free operation
• You benefit from the "fit and forget" method and years of continuous performance. This reduces your integration and operation costs to keep your production competitive.
Robust and highly accurate – even immediately after CIP/SIP routines
• Efficiently handles weight concentrations from 0 to 100 and provides refractive index and concentration results comparable to those of laboratory refractometers
• Once CIP/SIP routines are completed, the sensor reactivates in only a few minutes and therefore minimizes downtime
Ideal for in-tank installation
• No need to remove the Fermentation Monitor during cleaning routines
• EHEDG-certified
• CIP and SIP up to 145 °C
