Optical Sensor for Dissolved Oxygen Monitoring in Breweries
Dissolved oxygen measurements are an essential part of the brewing process. Keeping oxygen out of beer is a key production goal of brewers on any scale, since oxygen noticeably diminishes the taste of beer.
The measurement levels for oxygen are very low, so a sensor with high accuracy and response is needed. Hygienic construction and the ability to accommodate CIP operations is also a plus. Any features that reduce maintenance time budget enhance the value of the instrument.
The video, provided by Mettler Toledo, provides useful insight into how their optical DO sensor can benefit a brewing operation.
