    Check visually if the transparent vessel (6) is empty. If you are going to measure other samples, you don’t need to empty the GMD. You can rinse the old sample with the new one by leaving the new beer flowing through the GMD about 30 s.
  • Page 8: Technical Data

    Measuring device GMD (GMDK) can be used only for determination of CO content in the range of measured values determined by technical conditions. Never connect the measuring device to the withdrawal spots where measured parameters are over measuring capacity of the device.
  • Page 9: Co Content Measurement

    Let the beer flow through the device for at least 20s, 30s or more if you are rinsing the sample from a previous measurement or if it’s the first measurement and the GMD was stored in a warmer place before.
  • Page 10: Discharging Of The Sample
