WPX301 Concentration Densitometer – Perfect Choice for Alcohol Distillation Workshops

Double Challenges Behind Precision Measurement

One of our well-known Korean winery customers is famous for brewing high-quality soju, and its core process is double alcohol distillation. This process requires extremely high precision measurement and control of alcohol concentration:

• Process Complexity: In order to ensure the unique flavor and taste of soju, the winery needs to perform two alcohol distillations in the alcohol distillation workshop.
• Measurement Difficulty: Traditional methods rely on manual sampling, which has lags. Sensors installed in tanks are susceptible to problems such as stirring in the tank and vibration interference in the pipeline, resulting in data errors and affecting the finished product.

Customized Solution: Perfect Adaptation Of Density Meter + Bypass Pipe

For the pain points of alcohol distillation workshops such as “small pipe size, unable to directly install density meter” and “stirring in the tank and inconsistent alcohol concentration”, Wepower provides customer with an integrated solution of density meter +sanitary SS316 material bypass pipe. 

• Preferred Material: Hygienic stainless steel SS316 adapted to the high acidity and high temperature distillation environment of the winery.
• Structural Adaptation: Customize the bypass pipe size according to the pipe size of the distillation workshop and the insertion length of the density meter, while ensuring the stability of the liquid flow rate. One stainless drainage valve is designed to enable the convenient cleaning and maintenance.
• Real-time Detection: Through the excellent technology of our density meter, dynamic tracking of alcohol concentration during distillation is achieved, and the accuracy is several times higher than before.

Achievements and Value

After the implementation of the solution, the production efficiency and product quality of the winery have been fully upgraded.

• Reduced Error: Customers reported that the measurement error of alcohol concentration was reduced and the taste was well received.
• Process optimization: Through real-time data feedback, the alcohol distillation time and temperature are accurately controlled, which reduces the loss of raw materials, and our integrated customization service reduces certain cost losses.
• Full promotion: The customer decided to install our integrated solution on all the alcohol distillation workshop pipelines in the winery, and has purchased multiple sets of customized products of density meter + bypass pipe from Wepower this year.

Wepower Electronic takes technology as its core. Whether measuring density or concentration, it helps customers overcome measurement difficulties, proving the key value of our density meters in the food, alcohol and beverage industry.
