WineScan™ SO2 Brochure-4

WineScan™ SO2 has a FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) interferometer that scans the full infrared spectrum. The SO2 analysis is featured by SO2 gas releasing from the wine sample and subsequent FTIR scanning of the gas phase created. Collection of data from the entire spectrum allows you to analyse many parameters in a short period of time. Analysing new parameters is only a matter of calibration development. The WineScan gives you the knowledge you need to confirm your decisions and get your winemaking process off to a good start. Analysis of key parameters for maturity and grape...

WineScan™ SO2 Brochure-5

Information gained from liquid and gas The WineScan measures multiple parameters of wine and must using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) technology to scan a liquid sample. This same FTIR technique is used to measure sulphur dioxide levels by simultaneously scanning both the liquid wine sample and SO2 in the gas evaporated from it. The new unique gas detection technology provides both free and total SO2 results in just over one minute (Patent pending). The information gained from both liquid and gas provides the basis for an accurate measurement. During times when you only need the traditional...
