Overview

Food, brewing and sugar industries widely need concentration measurement: Brix, alcohol, wort, juice concentration, dairy total solids. Compared with heavy industry these sectors prioritize non-intrusive measurement, hygienic design and zero radioactive sources (to avoid both licensing and public concern).

PS7020

Sound Velocity Concentration Meter

The PS7020 series ultrasonic sound-velocity concentration/density meter measures the time of flight of ultrasonic waves in a liquid, and—combined with temperature compensation and an extensive library of calibration curves—converts this data in real time to yield the medium’s concentration and density, addressing the low accuracy and susceptibility to interference inherent in conventional measurement methods. Leveraging the fundamental physical principles of the sound-velocity method, this instrument is entirely immune to the effects of liquid color, transparency, electrical conductivity, vibration, noise, and flow velocity, thereby guaranteeing high precision and exceptional stability.
PS7400

Online tuning fork density meter

The PS7400 series online tuning fork density meter monitors liquid density in real time by leveraging piezoelectric excitation and changes in the tuning fork’s resonant frequency, requiring no maintenance while delivering highly accurate, repeatable measurements. Its built-in PT1000 temperature compensation eliminates drift due to temperature variations, making it suitable for diverse industrial applications such as pipelines and storage tanks, and widely used in the petrochemical, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries.
PS7200

Coriolis density meter

The PS7210 density meter employs the Coriolis force principle and achieves high‑precision, long‑term stability with no sensor drift through pure‑physical frequency measurement. It is suitable for continuous online monitoring of a wide range of liquids, including those in the petrochemical, brewing, and chemical industries—covering acids and alkalis—and supports installation in bypass lines or buffer tanks.
PS7110

Refractive concentration meter

The PS7110 series online refractive concentration meter uses high-resolution spectral acquisition and temperature-compensation algorithms to accurately convert the refractive index of a liquid into concentration, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial processes. Based on the principle of the critical angle of total internal reflection, the instrument features no moving parts and requires no reagents or consumables; it is unaffected by bubbles, color, or turbidity, ensuring long-term stability and maintenance-free operation.
PS7100

Spectroscopic concentration meter

The PS7100 series spectral concentration/density meter employs multi-channel full-spectrum technology to deliver real-time, reagent-free, and undiluted high-precision concentration measurements. Based on the Lambert–Beer law, this instrument provides broad coverage across the ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared spectra, making it suitable for industries such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and food & beverage, and particularly well‑suited for concentration monitoring in complex multiphase systems.
