Witt CO2 Mixers

• Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) for fresh produce, meats, and baked goods.
• Beverage carbonation for soft drinks, beers, and sparkling wines.
• Inerting processes in food storage and processing to prevent oxidation.
• Controlled atmosphere storage for fruits and vegetables.
• Industrial gas mixing for various manufacturing processes requiring precise gas blends.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, flow rates commonly range from 50 to 1000 Nm³/h, depending on the specific model and application requirements.

Power supply

Units of this type typically operate on standard industrial electrical supplies, commonly 230V or 400V, 3-phase, 50Hz.

Gas inputs

CO2 mixers are designed to accept high-pressure CO2 gas, often alongside other gases like N2 or O2 for precise blending.

Output pressure

Output pressure is typically adjustable, commonly ranging from 2 to 10 bar, to suit the downstream equipment.

Accuracy of mix

For this equipment class, mixing accuracy is typically high, often within +/- 0.5% to 1% of the set value.

Footprint

Compact designs are common, with typical dimensions for a standalone unit being around 600mm (W) x 400mm (D) x 1200mm (H).

Control system

Modern units commonly feature PLC-based control systems with HMI for easy operation and monitoring.

• What maintenance is typically required for Witt CO2 mixers?

  Routine maintenance typically involves checking and replacing filters, calibrating sensors, and inspecting seals. Annual servicing by a qualified technician is often recommended.

• Can these mixers be integrated with existing MAP machinery?

• What safety features are commonly found on these units?

• Are spare parts readily available for Witt CO2 mixers?

• What is the expected lifespan of a used Witt CO2 mixer?

Carbonation systems for beverage processing are generally regarded as reliable workhorses when properly maintained. Buyers typically prioritise machines with verified service histories and intact seals, as degradation directly impacts carbonation consistency and product quality. Key strengths include durability across extended production runs and relative simplicity of operation once calibrated. Industry sentiment emphasises checking pressure vessel integrity and cleaning records before purchase. Well-maintained units from reputable manufacturers represent solid investments for established beverage producers seeking cost-effective capacity.
