PBA-W
Generation M
Packaged Beverage Analyzer
for Wine and Sparkling Wine
Get your results six times faster
In its basic version, PBA-W Generation M provides results four times faster than any conventional measuring
system. With all available modules attached, PBA-W Generation M is more than five times faster.
All parameters -alcohol, the CO
2 content, pH, dissolved oxygen and turbidity – are determined at the
same time. With the help of these measured quantities, other important parameters like the total extract
are calculated. The table below gives you a more detailed comparison.

One adjustment for all types of wine
Whether you measure white or red wine, sweet or dry wine – one single adjustment of PBA-W is valid \
for any
wine type you want to measure. PBA-W determines alcohol content selectively, virtually uninfluenced by other
common wine constituents. You can measure different wine types immediately after each other; no cleaning
between measurements is required. Add this to the system’s general ease of use, and you have a solution
reliably operated by anyone after a short instruction only. This makes PBA-W ideal for quality checks right after
filling.
Another word for peace of mind
PBA-W Generation M is based on a modular concept. You can build on your basic system with further
Anton Paar measurement solutions in any way you see fit. Why decide everything now? Upg\
rade your
system at any given time. All modules are connected in Plug-and-Play fashion to form your very own
customized solution. And let’s not forget the future: Anton Paar is always in close contact with wine
producers to develop and further improve measurement solutions for the wine industry. With PBA-W,
you are ready for everything – so modularity becomes peace of mind.
The break you deserve
The work is done: Your wine or sparkling wine is bottled. Now, what is the easiest,
fastest possible way to determine your wine’s alcohol, density, total extract, CO
2
content and other essential quality parameters?
The answer is PBA-W Generation M, your Packaged Beverage Analyzer for Wi\
ne. This
modular system determines all parameters you need after sampling directly from the
package, with minimal sample preparation – essentially at the push of a button. After
the automatic filling, all parameters are determined simultaneously. Your results are
ready after four minutes only.
Density meter
DMA 4500 M/ME (either as Master or as Modular
Extension) is the ideal quick and easily operated
solution for standard wine analysis applications.
For more routine tests, DMA 4100 M offers an
economic alternative, while high-end analysis needs
are met by DMA 5000 M, the most accurate digital
density meter in the world. The patented reference
oscillator (AT 399051) in these density meters
ensures long-term stability and eliminates drifts.
A powerful combination
From groundbreaking innovation to the latest Generation M,
Anton Paar always exercises leadership in measurement
technologies. The efficient combination of these technologies
secures outstanding results.
pH meter
Combining a pH ME measuring module with a PBA-W
Generation M meter enables the simultaneous measurement
of the density and pH value, a procedure successfully
performed in the wine industry. The pH value is a parameter
used to verify the quality, taste and microbiologic stability of
wines.Alcohol meter
Alcolyzer Wine M/ME (either as Master or as Modular
Extension) employs a near infrared spectroscopic
measuring principle patented by Anton Paar
(US 6,690,015, AT 406711) to determine the alcohol
content of wine and sparkling wine products within
minutes. Adjustment is very simple, requiring distilled
water and a distilled water/ethanol mixture only.
CO
2 carbonation meter
CarboQC ME precisely determines dissolved
CO
2 in beverages. The analysis is based on the
patented Multiple Volume Expansion method
(AT 409673, GB 2373584, US 6,874,351), which
eliminates the influence of other dissolved gases
such as oxygen or nitrogen. O
2 meter
A high dissolved oxygen content negatively impacts
the taste and shelf life of your wines. Continuous
monitoring of the oxygen content during and after
production with the Option O
2 measuring module
helps ensure your wines’ enduring good taste.
Directly connected to CarboQC ME, Option O
2
delivers highly accurate results without extending
your analysis time.
Turbidity meter
HazeQC ME employs the well-proven ratio method to
calculate the turbidity value from the raw measuring
signals at three angles: 0° transmission, 25° and 90°
scattered light. A light wavelength of 650 nm is used.
HazeQC ME therefore complies with common standards
regarding turbidity in beverages.

The power of modularity
In its basic version, PBA-W Generation M determines the three most important sparkling wine
parameters: alcohol, total extract and CO
2. The expanded version measures up to six parameters
including O
2, turbidity and pH. Simply create the system that best meets your needs.
Customers already using a Generation M wine analysis system can easily upgrade it to \
a PBA-W
Generation M for more efficiency and accuracy, eliminating the need for difficult, time-consuming
sample preparation. Your PBA-W Generation M can always be adapted to future requirements by
upgrading it with available Anton Paar modules.

Easy calibration
PBA-W requires no sophisticated calibration and adjustments. The daily calibration w\
ith water takes care of all
instruments in one move. Occasionally, a calibration with a water/ethanol solution is necessary.
Low sample volume
As all measuring parameters are provided by one system, the sample amount is as small as it can possible b\
e. In the
basic version you only need a sample volume ranging from 120 mL to 150 mL. This leaves enough sample volume
for further investigations.
Small footprint
The system’s footprint is very small, amounting to about one square meter only. Depending on the parameters you
are going to measure, you need a gas supply for pressurized air or nitrogen.
