Oxygen And Carbon Dioxide Headspace Measurement For modified Atmosphere Packaged (MAP) Product

These highly advanced instruments are equipped with integral sampling systems, unique, miniature, long-life, zirconia and infrared sensors, and microprocessor control to deliver the most accurate and repeatable performance possible.

The internal microprocessor manages calibration, autoranging, flow control, test duration and many other functions to ensure consistent, error-free results. One touch automated calibration and product analysis make these analyzers easy to use. Response is typically less than five seconds for oxygen and ten seconds for carbon dioxide.

The new more compact corrosion resistant enclosure minimizes the required foot print space on carts and table tops.

Automated package sampling is easy. Measurement duration is user selectable which provides great flexibility for a large variety of products. Using the sample wand, insert the sampling needle into the package and press test. The instrument does the rest; extracting the sample, analyzing sensor output and holding the results for viewing on the bright autoranging display.

• Fast, accurate MAP analyser for testing low volumes of O2 and CO2 in gas flushed food and pharmaceutical products.

This base oxygen analyzer is used in conjunction with a computer interface and will perform most of the functions of the 5250i including non-invasive headspace analysis for packages, bottles and blister packs using the O2xyDot Sensor; package material and design evaluation; closure design and evaluation; MAP production start up monitoring; research and development; QC and assurance, as well as product oxidation studies.

The OxySense 325i is particularly ideal for smaller laboratories and companies considering bringing their oxygen testing requirements in-house for the first time and companies looking for a low-cost solution. With the new EasAlign Pen with integrated capture switch for a simple, one click, oxygen measurement. Multiple measurements can be provided over time on the same package offering accurate analysis through real time, real world measurements. Due to the measurement process used, the risk of sample contamination or leaks is eliminated.

The OxySense 5250i is the o2 analyzers instrument of choice for laboratories and individuals who need to test or evaluate packaging materials through a variety of studies. These studies include: non-invasive headspace analysis for packages, bottles and blister packs using the O2xyDot Sensor; package material and design evaluation; closure design and evaluation; MAP production start up monitoring; research and development; QC and assurance, as well as product oxidation studies.

For non-invasive measurements, oxygen concentration can be determined by placing the O2xyDot Sensor in the package or container prior to filling and sealing. Multiple measurements can be provided over time on the same package offering accurate analysis through real time, real world measurements. Due to the measurement process used, the risk of sample contamination or leaks is eliminated.

This versatile instrument also has the capability to perform permeability analysis (OTR) on film, bottles and packages*.

This carbon dioxide (CO2) and oxygen (O2) headspace analyzer provides consistently reliable results and simplicity in operation allowing you to maximise your production efficiency. Its large buttons and clear display ensures testing is simple, errors are eliminated and no special operator training is required.

Numerous packs can be tested quickly with just one button press, saving time and making Quality Assurance more efficient. These MAP analyzers can test all pack sizes and very low volumes.

Rigid cans and jars can also be tested using the simple-to-use can piercing station which supports the cans and jars for accurate analysis using a standard needle probe. A 45° Adaptor is also available to aid measurement of small volumes of headspace.

There are a variety of ways to perform analysis; Timed Tests, AutoSense, Peak/Valley, Syringe Direct Injection or Continuous Testing. Fast configuration and selection provides the test method which is best for you. Easy to see Pass and Fail messages speeds up the analysis process and removes any uncertainty with interpreting measurements.

The Gaspace Data Manager software allows you to download results stored on your gas analyzer and upload new settings. You can also search through your stored data by time, date, user, production line or any of the product information.

Latest Coulometric Sensor technology ASTM D3985 Compliant

Setting the new bench mark in oxygen transmission rate measurement instruments, the All-NEW OxySense® instrument incorporates the latest in coulometric sensor technology with high sensitivity and the widest test range. The instrument is simple to operate, designed to lower testing costs, and increase productivity.

The OxySense 8101e is designed to be expandable and lower your testing costs. Systech Illinois is the only major developer of transmission rate test instrumentation to offer satellite expansion. The satellites can be configured to meet your precise testing needs, allowing you to cost effectively add lab capability as needed while continuing to lower your “cost per test”.

The TME BT Integra-Pack© is a bench-top, highresolution (0.001 psig) test instrument with a small footprint and user-friendly ease of operation. Electronic pressure and flow controls provide precise and repeatable test conditions, while automatic and high flow output allow testing of large porous packages. Applications cover a range of flexible or rigid, porous and non-porous, open or sealed packages.

Automatic or Manual Parameter Definition 

The intelligent BT Integra-Pack will test any package in automatic mode, with no need to input test parameters. However, its sophisticated nature is combined with a manual mode that lets the user input parameters such as ramp rate control and back pressure drop sensitivity. This allows testing of special configurations or types of packages or perform specific research and datagathering activities.

Icon-based, Touch-Driven Color Display

The touchscreen color display provides easy, clear navigation through the wide variety of data handling and review screens. Clearly defined icons make it easy to choose test modes, move from automatic to manual test settings, view test results in numeric and/or graphical format, and securely handle accumulated data.

Modular systems for precision water vapor permeabilty testing of packaging film barriers.

The 7000 water vapor analyzer range utilises the sensitive and stable P2O5 sensor for absolute moisture measurement. These water vapor analyzers offer a wide measurement range of 0.002-1000 g/m²/day and precision temperature, humidity and flow control. Providing accurate and repeatable results for research and development testing of water transmission rate (wvtr) in both current and newly formulated packaging film materials and fast testing for Quality Control.

All Systech Illinois analyzers are certified traceable to NIST. In addition, analytical performance is validated using NIST certified gases and NIST traceable films.

A set of validation films and a spare P2O5 sensor comes as standard with all of our water vapor permeation analyzers.
