SpectraAlyzer WINE – Wine Quality Check and Control

Great taste comes with great recipe and great quality

The SpectraAlyzer WINE is the ideal instrument for wine quality check and quality control solutions for routine analysis of major quality parameters during wine production.

In modern wine quality check processing operations, reliable and accurate analysis solutions are necessary to provide customers with products of highest and – what is most important – consistent quality. In order to be most competitive in the world market, consistent high yields, top quality and low production costs are the objectives that need to be achieved.

Designed as a modular system, the SpectraAlyzer WINE provides wine quality control solutions and presents the analytical results of these major quality parameters (e.g. wine: alcohol, density, total sugars, total acidity, pH, organic acids and optical density and many others within 45 seconds. Spirits with high alcohol content, e.g. 70 %, and sugar added can be precisely analyzed as well as must samples from wine production. There is no need to manually condition the sample and extra reagents do not have to be used. This analyser solution provides highly accurate quality control parameters at no extra cost.

As a stand alone system the analyser solution can be operated very easily intuitively for wine quality check and quality control, even close to the production line. The rugged construction and unique optical sample/reference setup ensures reliable operation in environments with fluctuating temperatures, vibration and dust. For a higher analytical throughput two autosampler types are available for total system integration into LIMS or other data networks. Immediate company wide data visualization is possible using the embedded web server, providing actual and historic analytical data in real time.
