OxySense Expands Its OxyPerm Permeation/OTR System Capabilities

OxySense, Inc. a pioneer in the first non-invasive optical oxygen analyzers and permeation testing instruments for the packaging and food and beverage industries has expanded its revolutionary oxygen permeation measurement system, the OxyPerm Permeation/OTR System.

The OxyPerm Permeation/OTR System already included the ability to test flat films using its economical yet accurate and reliable OxySense 5250i oxygen analyzer and low cost, easily scalable, patented permeation chambers. With the introduction of the BottlePerm Fixture, the same capabilities offered for flat films are now available for bottles and cups as well.

With the expansion of the OxyPerm Permeation/OTR System, a bottle or cup can be set up to test permeation/oxygen transmission rates, quickly and easily.  The operator simply attaches a "one size fits all" BottlePerm Fixture to a test bottle or cup, flushes it one time with nitrogen or a similar gas using the built-in valve system, then using the OxySense 5250i oxygen analyzer, begins the test – it’s just that simple.  It’s the all-in-one permeation/oxygen transmission rate testing solution.

What the 5250i can do

In addition to flat film, bottle, and cup permeation/OTR testing, the 5250i oxygen analyzer can simultaneously be used for headspace and dissolved oxygen analysis, shelf life studies, closure testing, oxygen scavenger evaluation and characterization, line start-up confirmation, leak detection and anaerobic environment monitoring.  It is the only system on the market that can perform permeation/OTR tests on flat films, bottles, cups, as well as oxygen analysis on finished packages, and "live" packages (packages filled with "real" product in a real environment), all with a single instrument.

Testing is key

Knowing how a container or material performs in the real world as well as in the lab is one of the keys to developing successful packaging, and OxySense systems are the best tool for this job.  Accurate, fully scalable, easy to use, and very affordable.

OxySense, Inc. is the international leader in optical oxygen sensor systems. It is tailored for the needs of the pharmaceutical industry. OxySense Technology and its innovative optical sensing systems can be found in research labs and on the production floors of the world's most progressive companies.
