Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a crucial gas in the drinks industry, used for carbonation, preservation, and oxygen removal. Its high solubility and stability make it ideal for creating the desired “fizz” and flavour in beverages like beer, soda, and wine. In beer, CO2 produced during fermentation impacts flavour and shelf-life, while in wine, precise CO2 levels are vital for freshness and taste balance. 

Beyond quality, CO2 monitoring is essential for safety, especially in breweries where large volumes can accumulate. High CO2 concentrations are an invisible danger, potentially causing dizziness or sickness. Therefore, reliable gas sensors, such as our Guardian NG, are indispensable. These sensors provide continuous, accurate, real-time data to monitor CO2 levels, ensuring both product quality and worker safety in drink production environments.
