Jet Technologies partners with Vinventions NomaSense analyser
Jet Technologies has partnered with the global wine closure solutions provider Vinventions to deliver a solution that gives Australian winemakers control of their oxygen management in real time.
The portable NomaSense O2 analyser allows winemakers to measure oxygen levels in the winery, including oxygen dissolved in wine and in gas phases. Oxygen can be measured at every stage of the winemaking process, including during the bottling stage, whether that’s within bottles or a bag-in-box product.
Being able to measure and control oxygen and gas levels from the beginning of the winemaking process right through to it being tasted by the customer is an advantage for winemakers. The non-destructive real-time measurements provide accuracy over samples taken from the cellar and moved to a laboratory where oxygen will be measured several hours later and may have used up a significant proportion of the oxygen present.
The technology from Vinventions is based on luminescence combined with the use of remote sensors. It is one of the few devices available to the wine industry that allows the measurement of both dissolved and headspace oxygen, and that also provides accurate total package oxygen (TPO) values.
The analyser’s measuring capabilities also match analytical and research laboratories’ requirements in terms of trace analysis for measuring permeabilities of different package types (especially wine closures) or monitoring very low dissolved oxygen concentrations during ageing steps.
The analyser was validated through a scientific collaboration with global institutes and many wine research centres are now using it to better understand oxygen’s influence on wine development.
