Alcohol Density – Concentration Measurement Solution

Online Alcohol Density Meter for Comprehensive wine extraction

The production line of the distillation workshop needs to carry out comprehensive collection of alcohol concentration and implement intelligent and digital production first. The grains in the tower are distilled and the wine flows into the tank through the condenser.

The system will distinguish the main effective wines of the head and tail wines according to the concentration of the wines. Equipped with a main fully closed sanitary automatic control valve. Guarantee the qualified delivery conditions for comprehensive and effective liquor. This process section is mostly used for Maotai-flavored wine picking.

The first stage: As the distillation time progresses, what follows is a head with impurities. The system sets the collection and control of wine head by time. About 5kg, at this time the valve opens. The wine head flows into the tank until the set time is reached, and the valve is closed. It can be adjusted according to different liquor brewing processes.

The second stage: the main wine is collected comprehensively through wine tanks. Measure the alcohol concentration in real time with an alcohol density meter to ensure that the comprehensive alcohol content reaches the qualified alcohol content and make effective adjustments.

The third stage: tail wine collection. When the alcohol content is less than the minimum setting, close all valves. Open the tail valve for effective collection.

Online Alcohol Density Meter for Segmented wine extraction

The production line of the distillation workshop needs to collect the alcohol concentration in sections and take the lead in implementing intelligent and digital production. The grains in the tower are distilled and the wine flows into the tank through the condenser. The system will be divided into the following three stages of control according to the different alcohol concentrations, with a fully closed sanitary automatic control valve.

The first stage: With the passage of distillation time, the wine head with impurities comes out. The system sets the collection and control of the wine head through time. It is about 5kg. At this time, the valve opens. The wine head flows into the tank. Until When the set time is reached, the valve closes. It can be adjusted according to different liquor brewing processes.

The second stage: After the separation of the beer head is the focus of the process. At this time, the valve is opened, and the system needs to collect and store the puree with alcohol concentration of Luzhou-flavored (75%~55%)/sesame-flavored (≥20%) in the tank. Carry out grading, and when the corresponding alcohol content range is reached, the corresponding valve is opened for grading collection. When the concentration meter detects that the alcohol content is lower than the minimum range value, the valve is closed. Remarks: Because different brewing processes require different degrees of alcohol extraction, the system can directly set and extract alcohol degrees according to the actual needs of the winery.

The third section: Tail wine collection, when the alcohol content is less than the minimum setting, close all valves. Open the tail valve for effective collection.

More Density meter and measurement analysis solution

Alcohol production in alcohol factories is completed by multiple processes, mainly controlled by humans. In the process of distilling and extracting alcohol, operators have been operating with experience. Inevitably there are errors affecting the alcohol concentration, which can lead to production defects. The incoherence of the distillation process has largely led to the instability of alcohol, which has become a persistent disease that has plagued the alcohol industry for many years. For a long time, the wine industry has spared no effort to break through the traditional production process and realize production automation.

More Density meter and measurement analysis solution

Coriolis mass flowmeter is a kind of instrument that is commonly used at present and has relatively high stability and reliability of measurement accuracy. Coriolis mass flow meters are not only capable of measuring mass flow meters from Micro Motion, but also of media density.

When the Coriolis Density Meter measures density, its measuring tube vibrates continuously at a certain resonant frequency. Because the resonance frequency is a function of the fluid density. When fluids of different densities fill the vibrating tube, its vibration frequency will also change. Therefore, measuring the frequency change of the vibrating tube completes the density measurement. The linear relationship between the density and the vibration frequency of the vibrating tube.

This method is accurate and reliable in measurement, and is suitable for a wide measurement range of various fluid densities. The pressure loss of Coriolis Density Meter is very small, and it has inherent advantages in measuring the density of viscous fluids such as mud.

There are more and more requirements for density measurement in the current production process, and the accuracy of density measurement directly affects the quality of production process.

Working principle of Optical Density Meter

Imagine you have a flashlight. When you shine it through a clear glass of water, almost all the light passes through. But if you shine it through a dark-colored drink, less light will pass through because the drink is denser.

An Optical Density Meter works a bit like that flashlight. It uses light to see how “thick” or “dense” a sample is. Here’s how:

Light Source: The meter has a light that shines through the sample.
Sample: This is what you want to test, like a liquid.
Detector: On the other side of the sample, there’s a part that catches and measures the light that comes through.
If a lot of light passes through, the sample is less dense. If only a little light passes through, the sample is more dense.

The Optical Densitometer is Based on the Propagation Law of the Spectrum in the Liquid. Sampling is Performed by High-Resolution Sensor. Analyzed AN d processed by software. Obtain the Regularity of the Concentration. The then Through Temperature Compensation. various liquids or liquid mixtures.

• It can also be used in mining brine, potash, biopharmaceutical and other industries.
• Brewing and Beverages: Companies that produce beverages such as fruit juice or beer use this tool to check sugar content. More sugar means the drink may be sweeter and thicker.
• Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: When companies manufacture pharmaceuticals, they need to ensure that the mixture is perfect. A gauge can help check this.
• Paint making: Have you ever noticed that some paints are thick and some are thin? The factory uses a densitometer to get just the right consistency.
• Water Treatment: This meter can help check how clean the water is. If the water is too “thick” and contains unwanted material, more cleaning may be required.
• Agriculture: Farmers use it to check the health of plants. If plants are not healthy, they may not be able to absorb enough light. Meters can provide relevant clues.

These are just a few examples. There are many places where knowing how “thick” or “dense” something is can be very useful, and that’s why the Optical Density Meter is an important tool in industries.

Working Principle

The sensor of the Micro Vibrator Handheld Density Meter is designed according to the principle of component vibration. This vibrating element is similar to a two-toothed tuning fork, the body of which is vibrated by a piezoelectric crystal located at the root of the tooth. The frequency of the motion is detected by another piezoelectric crystal. Through phase shifting and amplification circuit, the fork body is stabilized on the natural resonant frequency. When the medium flows through the fork, the resonance frequency changes due to the change of the medium quality.

Working principle:
The density and vibration frequency of the medium conform to the following mathematical formula: D=K0+K1T+K2T2

Formula:
D = Density of the measured medium
T = natural frequency of the fork
T2=The frequency when the measured medium flows through the fork body

K0, K1, K2=constant According to this formula, the accurate medium density value can be calculated through the electronic processing unit.

online density transmitter working principle

The density of liquids cannot be measured directly.

In industry, density meters are categorized based on the principle they use, like float, vibration, ultrasonic, or differential pressure.

To measure the static liquid, assume its density is uniform. Let ρ be the density, g be the gravity, and h be the height of the liquid column. The static pressure of the liquid column is P = ρ g h.

The density of a liquid can be calculated by measuring the static pressure and height of the liquid column.

The static pressure density meter can measure the density of high viscosity liquids. However, it is easily affected by fluctuations in liquid level.

To remove the impact of liquid level changes, we often use the differential pressure method. This method involves the liquid flowing through a vertical conduit. Install two pressure sensors spaced h apart on the conduit. The measured pressures are P 1 and P 2 , respectively. After measuring the pressure of two liquid columns of different heights. It can be obtained from formula (1): P 1 – P 2 =ρ g (H 1 – H 2 ).

H 1 , H 2 are the heights of the two pressure sensors from the liquid surface, P is the density of the liquid to be measured, and g is the acceleration of gravity.

Let P 1 – P 2 =ΔP , H 1 -H 2 =h, from the formula (sample):

fork density meter principle

Tuning fork density meter (concentration meter) can perform density detection online in real time. It can be applied to the process control of products with density as the basic parameter or the quality control with solid percentage or concentration percentage as reference.

Typical industries include petrochemical industry, brewing industry, food industry, pharmaceutical industry and mineral processing (such as clay, carbonate, silicate, etc.). Specifically used in the interface detection in multi-product pipelines in the above industries, the density detection of stirred mixtures, the end point monitoring of reactors, and the interface detection of separators.

Tuning fork density sensors work on the principle of vibration of components, which are part of the tuning fork immersed in the liquid to be measured. The tuning fork part is vibrated by an internal piezoelectric device fixed at the bottom end of the fork body. The oscillation frequency is detected by a secondary piezoelectric device fixed at the other end of the fork. The signal is then amplified by the circuit on top. The density of the liquid is closely related to the vibration frequency when the measured liquid flows. When the density of the measured liquid changes, the vibration frequency of the liquid changes accordingly.

Through the following equation, the density of the measured liquid can be accurately calculated.

D= K0+K1T+K2T2
D = uncalibrated density of the measured medium (kg/m3)
T=vibration frequency (μs).
K0, K1, K2 = constant

During the density detection process, the Tuning fork density meter (concentration meter) can automatically compensate the influence of temperature on the density (D) of the measured medium. Pressure has no significant effect on density.
