Less Hassle and Easier to Use

Different beers may have different level of dissolved carbon dioxide. So, during production, breweries need a CO₂ sensor that not only provides accurate measurements, but is also easy to handle between products.

For Boulevard Brewing, the largest specialty brewer in the US Midwest, an intelligent CO₂ sensor provides the answer. Boulevard Brewing tested an InPro 5500i CO₂ sensor from METTLER TOLEDO for several months before it was fully installed.

METTLER TOLEDOʼs InPro 5500i sensor uses thermal conductivity (TC) for partial CO₂ pressure determination. The measurement is achieved by determining the thermal conductivity of the gas present in a measuring chamber separated from the liquid stream by a gas-permeable membrane. The TC principle is immune to the presence of background gases, which results in high CO₂ selectivity. Also, it has a high comparability with established reference methods. METTLER TOLEDO has enhanced this well-established principle by improving sensor handling and refining the cap that holds the membrane. The single-piece cap has been designed for fast, simple replacement and high cleanability to prevent contamination.
