Tecpen O2 and CO2 Analyzer for Modified Atmosphere Packaging
The TecPen O2 analyzer or Tecpen O2 + CO2 analyzer for modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) provides fast and accurate oxygen or carbon dioxide level measurements. By using a thin, hollow needle and micro-pump to take gas samples through clear packaging material or a septum, the TecPen is useful as a gas analyzer for quality control during MAP, testing shrink-wrapped, or vacuum-sealed food products.
In addition to its usefulness as a MAP O2 + CO2 analyzer or a headspace gas analyzer—because it is hand-held and rechargeable—the TecPen can be used in the field for controlled atmosphere storage applications.
