PLATO MONITOR is a modification of SONATEC that allows you to measure the original density and concentration of a substance in a liquid (beer / water / beverages) during the production process. Based on the data on the concentration-initial density, the definition of mixed phases in the brewing processes and at the stages of bottling of finished products is made.

Аdvantages:

  • Most accurate technology to determine original gravity in the manufacturing process
  • Patented compact design with local display available
  • Hygienic execution and full CIP capability
  • Easy to operate and maintenance-free

Description

Description

PLATO MONITOR is a modification of SONATEC that continuously measures the speed of sound passing through a detector immersed in the liquid to be analyzed. Based on the speed of sound in the liquid, the device calculates the concentration of alcohol / sugar / density, in the required customer units (Brix, Plato). The instrument is designed for applications requiring maximum sensitivity and the highest accuracy and speed of reaction and is capable of measuring, including in viscous liquids. It is easy to operate and requires no maintenance.

For sound velocity measurement a sound pulse is created by a piezo-element in a sonic transmitter. It moves perpendicular to the product flow towards a sonic receiver where it is detected. Since the distance between transmitter and receiver is known, the sound velocity can be easily calculated by measuring the travel time of the sonic signal. As a specific property of each liquid, the correlation between concentration and sound velocity can be described by a mathematical polynomial. Any temperature drifts of the measured signal are automatically compensated for by an internal Pt1000 sensor.
