Chart's liquid nitrogen dosing systems nitrogenate packaged craft beer and cold brew coffee. This efficiently purges empty bottles or cans of nearly all oxygen for an extended shelf life and a perfect pour with cascading effects from the release of nitrogen bubbles.
One part of liquid nitrogen (LN2) warms and expands into 700 parts of gaseous nitrogen at ambient temperature. Chart's automated dosers dispense a precisely measured dose of LN2 into each container prior to sealing. The trapped LN2 vaporizes, creating pressure, and adding rigidity to the container – allowing for a thinner container wall.
“部件”是用来创建同样的效果时n the can is opened as when it’s poured from a nitro tap. Nitrogen is released and it agitates the beverage. However, Chart has worked out how to remove the widget, and that is a huge deal because it affords significant cost savings and efficiency.
Familiar with the upsurge in craft beers and the nitro coffee phenomenon? Chart nitrogen dosing facilitates both.

Places or sprays liquid nitrogen on the surface of the product rather than penetrating the product surface, essentially eliminating any product splash and delivering consistent container pressure. Can be tailored to a specific product, package or application.
Permits control access to via the customer's intranet enabling engineers to view the process, create and load recipes and trouble-shoot from a desktop PC, laptop or mobile device. Actions that previously required multiple staff for a large-sized machine or long-distance application are easily accomplished with significantly fewer operators.
Developed in response to market demands to precisely dose liquid nitrogen into ultra light weight packaging to comply with tight container pressure specifications. Incorporates multiple sensors to detect variables such as filling line speed and bottle presence, that the system uses for fine tune elctronic adjustments.
Let Chart develop and improve your product packaging. Send us your samples and we'll provide preliminary data and feedback to help you evaluate the benefits of liquid nitrogen dosing We provide installation, supervision, start up, commissioning, and training, along with 24/7 Technical Support.
From initial design to a complete after-sales package, we work closely with our customers to ensure that the complete system is engineered and built in accordance with their requirements and always operating at peak efficiency.
An exact dose of liquid nitrogen is introduced seconds before the seamer or capper. The volumetric expansion of the vaporized nitrogen pushes oxygen out of the container.
Key Benefits: oxygen reduction, extended shelf life, efficient nitrogen consumption, stabilization of organic products
Typical Applications: automobile oil, beer, condiments, wine
In Operation: documented studies show a 26% increase in shelf life and 90 to 95% reduction in headspace oxygen compared to traditional gaseous nitrogen purging
A precise dose of LN2 is delivered immediately before capping or seaming. The trapped LN2 quickly vaporizes, pressurizing the container.
Key Benefits: lighter weight packaging, increased packaging rigidity, glass to plastic transition, eliminates package paneling, ease of labeling, oxygen reduction
Typical Applications: bottled water, energy shots, flax seed oil, juices (hot and ambient fill), teas, vinegar
In Operation: documented 9 gram reduction in PET bottle weight with Chart's MicroDose™ technology. Assuming the PET resin cost of $0.80/lb and a single production line running at 700 bottles/minute, this equates to an annual cost saving >$2.6 million.
A dose of liquid nitrogen is introduced to "lock in" and surface freeze the product before it's transferred to a traditional tunnel or spiral freezer.
Key Benefits: maintains product integrity, aids in packaging and labeling, enables new products to be brought to market, enhances flavor and texture
Typical Applications: dipped ice cream cones and iCream Café
In Operation: liquid nitrogen flash freezing of ice cream cones provides stability and support through the packaging process resulting in improved overall aesthetics
A large dose of liquid nitrogen is introduced into the package seconds before the seamer or capper.
Key Benefits: extended shelf life, oxygen reduction, reduced nitrogen consumption, stabilization of organic products
Typical Applications: baby formulas, coffee, nuts, trail mix, botanicals
In Operation: 46% reduction in nitrogen consumption using a Chart doser in lieu of traditional nitrogen gas purging
