Description

The Maselli model BA01 Beer Analyzer consists of a multifunction analysis system installed directly on the process line, and a receiver mounted on the wall, the floor or in a panel. The on-line analysis system continuously measures the: refractive index, sound velocity and temperature of the product. The MR02 receiver uses these measurements to compute the alcohol, real extract and °Plato, displays the values and warns of alarm conditions. The receiver offers both mA and serial outputs, and communicates with Maselli’s optional Mlab data acquisition and remote control software. The Beer Analyzer incorporates modern technologies, including:

Microprocessor-based CPU
Powerful I/O card
High accuracy refractometer
High resolution sonic analyzer
The MR02 receiver membrane faceplate includes a backlit liquid crystal display and input keypad. It is possible to customize each of the system’s functions and alarms in the process area, either from the local keypad or remotely through the RS232/422/485 serial port. The serial output also allows long distance trouble shooting using a personal computer with modem and special software. The Maselli Beer Analyzer is easily installed on-line using standard sanitary Varivent? fittings.
