With the CARBOTEC NIR, Centec introduces a new optical approach to CO₂ measurement in beverage production. The key innovation:
CO₂ is measured directly and optically – without consumables and without interference from other dissolved gases.
This provides a reliable basis for continuous process control, even in applications where different gases are present in the product.
Additional benefits include:
- No moving parts or consumables → virtually maintenance-free operation
- Direct inline CO₂ measurement
- No influence from other dissolved gases
- No product loss during measurement
- Hygienic and CIP-capable design
The latest CARBOTEC NIR units have now successfully completed tests in beer, including comparison measurements with established reference equipment. The results confirm the potential of this new generation of optical CO₂ measurement for beverage production.
