OxyOTR™ System

The OxyOTR™ system is an add-on to the unique OxySense® 4000B solution, which has led to OxySense® becoming the packaging industry’s leader in providing reliable, non-invasive oxygen measurement and leak detection for modified atmospheric packaging (MAP), vacuum packaging, oxygen scavenging, closure seal, PET bottle and product shelf-life studies.

Equipping the OxySense® 4000B with the new OTR software and the OxyOTR™ permeation chambers yields a system capable of conducting an unlimited number of permeation measurement tests on packages and films simultaneously through a semi-automatic testing procedure, while still providing the same non-invasive oxygen measurements for which it is known. In addition, with the OxyOTR™ and the OxySense® 4000B, a lab can now perform OTR tests on “live” packages (filled with real product on real packing lines).

In a recent third-party market research study, analysts found that “OxySense® was the only supplier that offered a fully integrated system with the required operating and testing capabilities.” The study, which concentrated on identifying oxygen permeability analyzers, speaks directly to the unique capabilities awarded to the user by combining the OxySense® 4000B and the OxyOTR® system as well as to the number of testing possibilities the solution offers.In addition to enabling simultaneous testing of multiple films and packages, the OxyOTR™ system also offers the flexibility performing headspace or dissolved oxygen analysis in finished packaging. The system also provides real-time data, graphic and data management capabilities, bar code scanning and production as well as interim and final reports by both sample and test groups.

The OxyOTR™ add-on for the OxySense 4000B is a semi-automatic system; therefore, users are required to take period manual readings to conduct testing, but this process has been made simply and easy with the addition of the integrated bar code sample tracking and logging software.
