Alkotest series Analyzers are intended for measurement of the ethyl alcohol contents in wine distillate and water alcohol mixtures. Using this analyzer the time needed per one analysis is reduced to about a minute (assuming distillation is already done). Alkotest analyzer makes unnecessary the use of such equipment as Analytical Balances, precision water thermostat and picnometers in the process of alcohol contents measurement. It also significantly reduces the human factor influence in the measurement process. Alkotest Analyzers are easy for use and serve. There is no need of specialized glass equipment and qualified personal. The user can easily calibrate the equipment by means of calibrating solutions (standards). It is recommended to check the equipment twice a month and to calibrate it if necessary. The calibration is made in four points: - distillated water (0% alcohol contents), and three standard solutions with accurately determined alcohol contents – one standard solution is required for each of the ranges: • 9.00±0.3%; • 11.5±0.3%; • 14.00±0.3%. The Analyzer accuracy is ±0.1% volume alcohol contents, in the range from 8% to 15%. The analysis accuracy can be controlled by means of standard alcohol samples, standard wine samples, checking samples and other methods.
