L.Sensor.O2 Non-Destructive laboratory test instrument used to measure the content of O2 and CO2 in plastic and glass containers.

L.Sensor.O2FT System, in partnership with the CNR researchers and the University of Padua, developed the L.Sensor.O2. The instrument is the first of its kind to utilize laser spectroscopy technology in the gaseous phase, for non-destructive measurement of oxygen in glass and plastic containers.

The L.Sensor.O2 instrument includes an optical/mechanical component which positions the container for analysis and an eletronic component for the control interface and analysis software.

The measurement is achieved using a low power, class 1 laser which passes a beam through the headspace of the container.

The instrument is able to measure the percentage of O2 in the headspace, PPM of dissolved O2, total pressure inside the container, partial pressure from CO2 and the content of dissolved CO2 in g/l.

The L.Sensor.O2 is particularly safe to operate as it does not require the container to be opened or pierced, thereby removing the risk of busting a container.

The test cycle is fast, repeatable and the system is simple to operate. The L,Sensor.O2 requires no consumable components and has no wear parts. The technology replaces other techniques which requires either prior preparation of the container to be tested or utilize an invasive probe.

The L.Sensor.O2 allows the operator to significantly increase the frequency of samples tested and eliminates the variability associated with manual, destructive test techniques.

The system is portable allowing it to be placed in the production area for fast, reliable monitoring of the oxygen that enters the container during the filling and capping process.
