C230M (2018) Oxygen Transmission Rate Testing System

Product Introduction
The C230M (2018) Oxygen Transmission Rate (OTR) Testing System is designed to evaluate the oxygen barrier performance of packaging and other materials. Based on a coulometric oxygen sensor and the equal-pressure test method, it is designed with reference to standards such as ISO 15105-2 and ASTM D3985.
Featuring three integrated test cells, high-sensitivity sensing technology, and an embedded computer control system, the C230M (2018) provides a wide measurement range for materials with high, medium, and low gas barrier properties. Precise temperature, humidity, and gas-flow control support reliable, repeatable oxygen transmission testing.
It is suitable for films, sheets, paper, packaging, and related materials used in food, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, household chemicals, and photovoltaic and electronics industries.

Performance Features
• Wide OTR Measurement Range: Supports standard specimen testing from 0.05 to 5,000 cm³/(m²·d).
• Three Integrated Test Cells: Enables efficient testing with a patented integrated three-cell design.
• High-Sensitivity Coulometric Sensor: Supports sensitive oxygen transmission measurements and repeatable results.
• Precise Environmental Control: Adjustable test temperature, humidity, and gas flow.
• Fast Test Preparation: Short preheating time helps testing conditions reach their setpoints sooner.
•   Flexible Testing Modes: Expert and rapid test modes accommodate different materials and testing requirements.
•   No Special Consumable Mixtures Required: Does not require liquid coolant, catalysts, or special gas mixtures.
•   Built-In Computer Control: Operates without an external computer.
• Package Testing Option: Supports package oxygen transmission testing for packages up to 3 L.
• Gas-Saving Function: Intelligent gas management helps reduce carrier-gas consumption.
•   Calibration Support: Reference films are available for system calibration.
• Data Management and Connectivity: Ethernet and USB interfaces support data export and system integration.
• Pharmaceutical Compliance Options: Optional DataShield™ data management, China GMP computer-system management, and 21 CFR Part 11 features.

Working Principle
The C230M (2018) uses the equal-pressure method combined with coulometric oxygen detection to measure oxygen transmission through a material.
The specimen separates two test chambers. One side is exposed to oxygen, while the other is swept with high-purity nitrogen as the carrier gas. Oxygen passing through the specimen is transported to the coulometric sensor, which generates an electrical signal proportional to the amount of oxygen detected. The system processes this signal to calculate the oxygen transmission rate (OTR).
Controlled temperature, humidity, and gas flow help maintain test conditions, allowing users to compare the oxygen barrier properties of packaging materials under defined conditions.
