Anton Paar introduces the Alcolyzer 5001 and Alcolyzer 7001, two advanced laboratory alcohol meters designed for rapid, reliable alcohol determination across a wide range of beverages. Both instruments ensure compliance with AOAC, BCOJ, and OIV standards, supporting laboratories in meeting industry requirements while eliminating the need for distillation.
The devices analyse 12 product categories – including beer, wine, spirits, sake, kombucha, and RTDs – with ethanol content ranging from 0 % v/v to 65 % v/v. They deliver precise results in as little as two minutes, thanks to patented NIR technology that enables unmatched repeatability: 0.03 % v/v with the Alcolyzer 5001 and 0.01 % v/v with the Alcolyzer 7001.
Both models integrate seamlessly into Anton Paar’s AP Connect lab execution system or existing LIMS systems, ensuring secure, paperless data transfer and reducing transcription errors. Manual input of density values unlocks access to more than 35 additional parameters, such as original extract in beer or calories in wine, providing deeper insights into product composition without additional measurements.
The Alcolyzer 7001 offers enhanced flexibility with optional upgrades, including 430 nm colour measurement and a sample changer capable of handling up to 24 samples in one run. These features increase throughput and expand quality control capabilities.
With intuitive operation, digital integration, and broad beverage compatibility, the Alcolyzer 5001 and 7001 support reliable, efficient workflows. Laboratories gain consistent accuracy, reduced product loss, and full support for both traditional and non-alcoholic beverages.
