OPAX-1000™ Opacity and Turbidity Sensor Overview
Test the opacity of containers with online, high-speed and accurate measurements. The OPAX-1000™ opacity and turbidity sensor combines proven sensor technology with innovative hardware to provide an easy-to-use system to measure light transmission in a wide variety of applications.
Many products require packaging that protects the contents from the damaging effects of light. Establishing pass/fail criteria for minimum opacity of these containers and providing online opacity testing eliminates defects and allows real-time quality control. The OPAX-1000 allows you to test every container, and identify and remove containers with low opacity.
Opacity Testing Applications:
On-line opacity meter for container manufacturing. The OPAX-1000 system can be used with packaging materials such as high-density polyethylene, HDPE plastic, LDPE, and other opaque materials such as paper and composite films. Read our application note on how opacity sensors protect product integrity.
Quality Control Applications:
In-line incoming inspection of finished containers. Container manufacturers can deploy the OPAX-1000 opacity and turbidity sensor as part of a manufacturing process quality control system.
