Parker PCO2 Carbon Dioxide Quality Incident Protection Systems are designed for beverage manufacturing applications where carbon dioxide quality is important to the finished product. Impurities introduced during CO₂ production, transportation, storage or handling may affect beverage taste, consistency and overall quality.
The PCO2 system combines adsorption and filtration technologies to reduce specified contaminants in the incoming CO₂ stream. Depending on the system configuration and operating conditions, these technologies address selected hydrocarbons, sulphur compounds, moisture and particulate contamination.
Installed within the beverage-grade CO₂ supply system, Parker PCO2 provides an additional purification barrier before carbon dioxide reaches beverage production equipment. Correct system selection, installation and maintenance help support consistent CO₂ quality within the treatment capabilities specified by Parker.
