Permeation

The PERMATRAN-C 4/41 CO2 Transmission Rate tester features 2 independent cells allowing flexibility in test configurations. The accurate Infrared sensor provides results in much less time than traditional methods.

High Accuracy

• MOCON’s Patented Modulated InfraRed sensor is the only modulated sensor system on market meeting ASTM F2476
• Detection levels down to 1.0 cc/(m2*day)
• Automated flow compensation simplifies testing
• Built-in reference cell to monitor system stability

High Throughput

• Modulated IR sensors measures transmission rate in real time greatly reducing overall test times compared to Zahn-Nagel transmission rate methods
• Excellent correlation to Zahn-Nagel shelf life studies allowing significant reduction in long term testing
• The PERMATRAN-C 4/41 Series of instruments can test the Carbon Dioxide Transmission Rate (CO2TR) from low to high barriers on films, packages and bottles. Unlike manometric or Zahn-Nagel methods that require long periods of time to provide results, the PERMATRAN-C 4/41 utilizes MOCON’s patented modulated IR sensor system allowing it to provide accurate results in much less time. Designed for a wide range of barriers this analyzer provides highly repeatable test results from 1.0 to 155,000 cc/(m2*day).
• The instrument has an easy to use operator interface and can be connected to other MOCON instruments providing centralized control and monitoring of multiple instruments. It has fully adjustable temperature control and automated flow compensation.

For more than 25 years, MOCON’s PERMATRAN series of instruments have been the most trusted and longest lasting on the market. The 4/41 series deliver fast CO2TR results in less time than traditional methods helping to speed up research and development of new materials or efficient verification of existing products.
