Food manufactures have to ensure a first-class quality of its products over a long period of time. One of the most effective measures to prevent food from aging is the protective atmosphere technology, keeps taste, colour and freshness for much longer than under normal packaging conditions. Further advantage of the oxygen-reducing procedure is the slowing down of the growth of any micro-organisms. Additionally, modified atmosphere packaging suppresses oxidation processes inside the food or beverage that could cause degradation of the ingedients.

Quality control: The MAT Gas analysers are designed for quality control both in production and laboratory. They are used for automatic spot measurements of single packages as well as for permanent (online) detection of oxygen - just right beside the packaging machines.

Measuring procedure: Before measuring, the package has to be equpped with a self adhesive septum, to seal the stitch point during the measurement. The needle is than stitched through the septum into the packaging and the measurement starts by pressing  a single button; the internal pump now sucks the gas into the analyser and its oxygen sensor. Within a short time (approx. 10-15 seconds) the O2 level and at the devices MAT 14 and MAT 15 also the CO2 is shown on the display and printed out for internal documentation. The devices can be optimised for any kind of product due to adjustment possibilities. Once adjusted, the use of the analysers are impressingly fast and easy - without special training. All menus are in plain text, the operation can be carried out with 3 buttons only.

Models: We offer 5 different models, which essentially distinguish through different sensors as well as different measuring ranges (O2 / CO2 ). In addition, an pharma -model is available for an especially small test volume of approx. 1 millilitre.

Accessories: Spot test device for soft packages, can and bottle piercing station, transport box, matrix printer,  septa, special PFA tubing, needles with central or lateral hole, activated carbon filter units, test gases etc.
