FOSS has just launched a new model of the popular WineScan Analyzer, which provides accurate measurements of dioxide of free and total sulphur in parallel with other parameters.
Sulfur dioxide is the parameter most commonly measured in the vinification. Periodic verification is necessary to achieve the optimal dose in the process of elaboration of the wine and to comply with the regulations. Measurements are also becoming increasingly important for producers seeking to minimize the use of additives in the production of modern wine. Results in little more than one minute compare favorably with about 15 minutes by test with the current methods of routine, or much longer for the laboratory reference methods. The system is also considerably more convenient, reducing manual work and the risk of operator error.

Integrated with other operations of routine analysis
Results for free and total sulphur dioxide content displayed on the screen of the computer along with the many other (over 20) quality parameters provided by the WineScan Analyzer. This provides a practical comparison on screen with other parameters such as pH and ethanol's potential interest in combination with sulfur dioxide.
The ability to measure sulphur dioxide is presented as an option for the new WineScan, so it is a complete solution of analysis of wine by providing a rapid analysis of routine of the main parameters of the wine in a single instrument. Local support and service options are the added values.

The solutions director for wine of Foss, Morten Olander says: "winemakers have been calling for an integrated system of measurement of sulphur dioxide since it launched the WineScan more than ten years ago." "We are now delighted to offer this new module as the next logical step in the analysis of wine making."
Intelligent application of technology of analysisThe WineScan measuring multiple parameters of wine and grape must using infrared by Fourier transform (FTIR) technology for analyzing a liquid sample. This same FTIR technique is used to measure levels of scanning sulphur dioxide simultaneously liquid wine sample as the gas evaporated in the same. The information obtained from liquid and gas provides the basis for precise measurement. All results are automatically saved for traceability with the WineScan software.
