The system consists of one or more intelligent sensors and one controller which are connected with each other by a digital line of almost any length. Investments costs are comparatively low, in particular, for a maximum of four sensors combined with only one controller suited for almost any distance between the individual measuring points.
Using high advanced sonic velocity in a unique sensor design the system allows control and monitoring of concentrations at different points of the brewing process as well as in the beverage production.
In outlet of the lauter tun or the mash filter LiquiSonic® Plato is used:
to control the lautering / mash filtering process,
for accurate determination of the sparge water point,
to determine the averaged extract content (initial extract in the wort boiler) directly by combining with a flow meter (EXtrACT-Totalizer).
Due to the complexity of the lautering process the results can be very different from brew to brew. The use of LiquiSonic® Plato eliminates such fluctuations and stabilizes the results on the highest possible level.
In the wort boiler LiquiSonic® Plato is used to:
control the extract concentration during the complete boiling process,
determine precisely the final wort concentration to minimize the steam utilization.
As a continuously measuring inline system not requiring any bypass, LiquiSonic® Plato is easy to install and completely maintenance-free.
