The inline beverage analyzers Cobrix 5501/5601 and Cobrix 7501/7601 models provide comprehensive real-time monitoring of critical parameters throughout the production of soft drinks. Pre-calibrated at the factory, the Cobrix models simplify the setup process, eliminating the need for time-consuming, product-specific adjustments on-site. Beyond the standard measurements of °Brix, %Diet, and CO2, these advanced instruments can also evaluate alcohol levels, sugar inversion, and, if required, conductivity, color, and oxygen content. The addition of TA measurement ensures a more robust analysis, aiding producers in achieving optimal taste and quality consistency in their beverages. The advanced diet measurement included in Cobrix 7501/7601 provides a new standard with regards to measurement stability and speed of diet beverages.
Key features
Market-leading accuracy and repeatability
With Cobrix, guarantee in-spec production while preventing unnecessary use of raw materials. This inline beverage analyzer provides the highest accuracy and repeatability for measuring %Diet, and key parameters like CO2, °Brix, sugar inversion, total acidity and alcohol concentration.
Advanced diet measurement for increased speed and stability
Elevate your sugar-free beverage production with Cobrix’s advanced diet measurement. This feature of the inline beverage analyzer Cobrix 7501 and Cobrix 7601 employs dual measurements for improved accuracy and reduced calibration needs. It is also available as an upgrade for Cobrix 5501 and Cobrix 5601. Achieve efficiency in the Quality Management Program with decreased laboratory checks and optimized processes.
Measurement Check
The measurement check acts as a ratio or "fingerprint" that compares all components to ionic ones, primarily acids. This method not only monitors product composition to minimize taste deviations, but also employs two independent measurements to validate composition. It comes out of the box with Cobrix 7501 and Cobrix 7601 and is available as an upgrade for Cobrix 5501 and 5601. When the results match the product-specific benchmarks, they confirm the accuracy of the beverage's blending, composition, and overall measurement. This identifies discrepancies such as sugar carry-over, missing critical ingredients, carry-over from cleaning processes, absence of key aroma components, or sensor malfunctions, ensuring a high level of quality control and consistency in the final product.
Configurable thresholds for tolerance and control limits
Safeguard your product quality via product- and application-specific detection of production anomalies.
A fit for your production environment
With the Cobrix inline beverage analyzer you can choose between an inline or bypass version to suit your production needs. The evaluation unit can be placed as far as 250 meters from the sensor, enabling easy access to production data. It features a standard Ethernet connection to Davis 5 software, allowing for the visualization of statistical, production data, and trends throughout the plant, and can also integrate with laboratory equipment if needed. This system offers versatile communication options, including classic analog outputs (4 mA to 20 mA), digital I/Os, and a selection of fieldbuses, ensuring seamless data integration across various platforms.
Safe for pressurized water and chemical foam cleaning
High-grade housing materials and an IP65 or higher rating for sensors and evaluation unit allow for chemical foaming and pressurized water factory cleaning.
