Features

Ensure color consistency right where you need it

Inline color measurement with L-Col 6100 gives you the certainty that your product looks exactly the way you want it to at any point in the production line. Most commonly, color measurement is employed at the end of production for a final inspection of the product, ensuring a consistent quality of the beverage you pass on to your customers. Typical applications include beer color measurement or controlling blending procedures.

The no-fuss solution for inline color measurement

The optical measurement principle makes it possible: To integrate L‑Col 6100 in your production line, you don’t need any extra device. Installation takes less than one hour. The color sensor is mounted inline via the VARIVENT® Type N connector. This EHEDG-certified connection is easy to mount. No hoses, no bypass, and no additional supplies are necessary. A nice side effect: You don’t need any floor space for color measurement, keeping your production line clutter-free.

The sensor is also easy-care during its whole lifetime: Long-lasting LED light sources reduce the maintenance effort significantly and lead to very low power consumption.

High-resolution optical measurement in a wide absorbance range

L-Col 6100 employs an optical measurement principle based on light absorption. From 0 AU to 3 AU (absorbance units) the color sensor delivers results fast and with a resolution of 0.001 AU. Together with a linearity above ±0.5 % transmission, this leads to highly reliable beer color measurements.

For the beer industry, the sensor converts results to beer color at 430 nm according to EBC/MEBAK®/ASCB. Turbidity can be compensated at 700 nm to eliminate the influence of sediments, e.g. yeasts in unfiltered beers.
