Reliable Gas Monitoring in New Craft Beer Brewery in Croatia

MSR-Electronic supplies digital gas sensors and controllers complying with EN 50545-1.

With increasing numbers of tourists, the demand for cool pale ale is apparently also increasing in Croatia. The current trend is therefore Craft Beer from Croatian breweries.

“精酿啤酒”通常是指由独立啤酒厂手动制作的啤酒。精酿啤酒运动起源于美国。除了这个定义外，在欧洲，该术语还指创造性啤酒和酿酒商，他们在纯粹法律之外或之外拾起并重新诠释了古老或外国啤酒风格。

The new Varionica Brewery in Pisarovina, south of Zagreb, follows the popularity of Craft Beer breweries in Croatia and is building a professional, modern plant with a production capacity of 40,000 litres per month.

除了酿造行业的最新技术外，Varionica还投资于所有必要的安全解决方案，包括从下巴伐利亚州的MSR电子可靠的气体检测。

在啤酒生产中，酵母在发酵过程中以麦芽汁为食，这导致了CO的生产₂和酒精。可能的危害包括氧气（O₂) displacement, resulting in the danger of suffocation for brewery workers, and the risk of being exposed to high carbon dioxide concentrations over a longer period of time. Other hazards could arise from LPG gas used in the boiler and engine room.

Gas Monitoring in Breweries is Therefore Indispensable

Varionica依赖于CO₂and LPG monitoring sensors from MSR-Electronic. The system is installed by the Croatian partner Aurel d.o.o. In the brewery, for example, fixed CO₂带有测量范围为0-5 vol％的红外传感器的警告设备用于连续监测二氧化碳浓度的环境空气。

The infrared measuring method with integrated temperature and drift compensation stands for highest accuracy, selectivity and reliability - despite a calibration interval of 5 years and the long sensor life. The digital infrared sensor has a standard analog output (0) 4–20 mA or (0) 2–10 V DC and an RS-485 interface. Two relays with adjustable switching thresholds are also possible. Calibration can be performed by simply changing the sensor cartridge or by using the integrated, convenient calibration routine directly at the system.

系统的核心是GC-06控制器

The Gas Controller is used for monitoring and warning of toxic and combustible gases and vapours as well as of Freon refrigerants in a wide range of gas detection applications. The large number of freely configurable parameters and setpoints allows individual adaptation to many applications.
