Test Principle

The gas in the sample is pumped into the sensor through the vacuum pump, and the sensor outputs the real time current and voltage signals of O2 and CO2 (optional) concentration of the gas in the sample. The instrument calculates the content of O2 and CO2 (optional) in the gas by obtaining the current and voltage signal output by the sensor. After reaching the requirements for ending the tests, the tests stop, and the instrument records the concentration of O2 and CO2 (optional) in the gas tested in the sample.

Test Applications

Basic Applications
Pouches/bags It is suitable for the determination of O2 and CO2 (optional) content in non negative pressure pouches, packaging bags of coffee, cheese, milk tea, milk powder, bread, soybean powder, modified atmosphere packaging, ready to eat food, medicine and other non negative pressure packaging bags.
Packaging Containers It is suitable for the determination of O2 and CO2 (optional) in canned coffee, canned milk powder, canned food, cheese, canned, Tetra Pak, beverage and other packaging containers
Extended Applications
Ampoule Bottles It is suitable for testing the concentration of O2 and CO2 (optional) in the head gas of ampoules
