Respiratory sensor system 6- Plastic biodegradation uses VELP's RESIRPOMETRIC sensor, an intelligent solution designed specifically for laboratory research on aerobic degradation of plastics, to determine the biodegradation process of plastic materials (including materials containing formulation additives) in aqueous media.

measuring principle

The aerobic degradation process of plastic materials in aqueous media consumes oxygen and generates carbon dioxide. When the sample is placed in a closed container for reaction, CO is produced₂Absorbed by the strong alkali at the neck of the container, the pressure inside the container decreases as the reaction progresses, and the respiratory sensor records the change in pressure inside the container from the beginning to the end of the reaction.

main features

● Intuitive 2-button interface for easy analysis and settings

● 4-digit LED display, long battery standby

● Pressure range 500-2000 mbar

● In millibars

The 6-digit digital mixer can accurately set the mixing speed and has a locking function to avoid accidentally changing the speed

Wireless data management

Databox^TMmodule

Wireless sensor connection, real-time data output without opening the incubator. A Databox^TMThe module can be connected to 8 systems, including 48 RESIRPOMETRIC respiratory sensors.

RESPIROSoft^TMsoftware

It can monitor multiple analyses simultaneously, generate real-time analysis curves, and make important information clear at a glance. Automatically detect the remaining battery level of the sensor, preset testing methods, compare result reports, output test reports, and set receipt collection intervals.
