Dansensor® MAP Check 3 Reduce Your Gas Consumption with Gas Save

On-line gas analyzer increases quality assurance on MAP-enabled flow packaging machines

Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) is an effective technology which can be steamlined and made more efficient with simple additions to your process line.

The Dansensor® MAP Check 3 gas analyzer is designed to be precise, so the gas target you set, is the gas dosage you get. It eliminates the all-too-common problem of well-intentioned operators using too much gas, without realizing its effect on production costs.

The Dansensor® MAP Check 3 lets you combine monitoring of gas content on a vertical or horizontal flow packaging machine, with real-time control of package flushing via an advanced GasSave function.

How Does it Work?

How Does it Work?

 N/A
  1. Before running the Dansensor® MAP Check 3 for the first time, enter individual product programs on the analyzer for each product to be packed on the machine. Thereafter, simply select the correct program to automatically set the correct alarm and target gas levels.
  2. When the packaging machine is running, Dansensor® MAP Check 3 continuously measures the residual oxygen and/or carbon dioxide.
  3. If the oxygen or carbon dioxide levels near the preset limits, Dansensor® MAP Check 3 notifies the operator. If the limits are exceeded, Dansensor® MAP Check 3 stops the packaging machine.
  4. If equipped with GasSave or connected to the Dansensor® MAP Mix Provectus, Dansensor® MAP Check 3 automatically adjusts the gas flushing of your product, according to the residual oxygen. This prevents incorrect residual oxygen levels and reduces gas costs.

Additional Information

Additional Information

 N/A For most manufacturers, this translates into a 20-50% decrease in gas consumption! It also improves reliability and efficiency. Unlike random, off-line quality control, on-line quality assurance with the Dansensor® MAP Check 3 means that every package is tested - more quickly and efficiently than with manual testing. If there is a problem, production stops automatically, helping to avoid recalls or the need to repack entire batches.
