All-in-One RTD Measurement System Delivers Reliable Results in Minutes
Anton Paar has announced the launch of the Packaged RTD Measurement System, a dedicated solution for fast, precise analysis of ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages such as whiskey-cola, gin and tonic, and other mixed drinks.
The all-in-one system measures alcohol (0 12 % v/v to 12 % v/v) and sugar (0 % w/w to 14 % w/w) directly from glass bottles, PET bottles, or cans in just eight minutes, with no sample preparation or distillation required.
Inversion-corrected density measurement enables reliable process monitoring with a fresh density accuracy of 0.0003 g/cm³, while the addition of sound velocity and NIR spectroscopy ensures reliable, high-quality alcohol and extract results, even for carbonated samples.
Capable of measuring more than 12 parameters from a single package, the Packaged RTD Measurement System features four integrated chemometric models tailored for measuring alcoholic RTDs sweetened with artificial sweeteners, sucrose, HFCS 42, and HFCS 55. Eight additional sample-specific values are calculated automatically.
Additional features include selective measurement of headspace and dissolved oxygen using a low maintenance optochemical oxygen sensor, selective CO2 analysis, and automated cleaning options to ensure reliable results.
Key highlights at a glance:
- Results in eight minutes for alcohol and sugar content
- No sample preparation or distillation required
- Inversion-corrected density accuracy: 0.0003 g/cm³
- Four chemometric models: diet, sucrose, HFCS 42, HFCS 55
- 12+ additional sample-specific parameters
- Selective oxygen and CO2 analysis
- Automated cleaning options
