In beer production, precise temperature control of large fermentation tanks is critical to ensuring fermentation quality and consistent taste. This solution, based on the ARM Embedded Controller, achieves high-precision temperature regulation and process optimization for large fermentation tanks.
Main Controller: ARMxy Embedded Controller, offering high-performance processing and reliable industrial-grade stability.
Y-AI Board: Used for monitoring temperature and sugar content in the fermentation tank.
Y-AO Board: Controls the refrigerant regulating valve for precise temperature adjustment.
Data Acquisition:
PT100 Temperature Signal: The Y-AI board collects three-wire PT100 temperature sensor signals, monitoring tank temperature in real-time with an accuracy of ±0.1°C.
Online Refractometer Signal: Collects 4-20mA standard signals to monitor the sugar content of the fermentation liquid, reflecting the fermentation progress.
Temperature Regulation:
Executes a phased cooling curve, gradually reducing the temperature from 12°C to -1°C, controlling the refrigerant valve opening via the Y-AO board to ensure smooth temperature transitions, meeting beer fermentation process requirements.
Data Visualization:
The system automatically generates fermentation process curves, displaying changes in key parameters like temperature and sugar content over time, facilitating process analysis and optimization.
Remote Control:
Uses the BLRAT protocol to remotely update OpenPLC programs, adjusting fermentation control parameters (e.g., time, temperature curves) without on-site intervention.
Brewers can monitor fermentation status in real-time and adjust process parameters via a mobile app.
Convenient Remote Operation: Brewers can adjust fermentation parameters anytime, anywhere via the mobile app, enhancing production flexibility.
High-Precision Control: The Y-series AO board supports valve position feedback, ensuring precise execution of the refrigerant valve with a temperature control deviation of less than ±0.2°C.
Data-Driven Optimization: Automatically generated fermentation process curves provide data support for process optimization, improving beer quality consistency.
Flexible Scalability: The ARMxy Embedded Controller supports modular expansion, allowing the addition of other sensors or control modules as needed.
Remote Maintenance: The BLRAT protocol enables remote OpenPLC program updates, reducing maintenance costs and improving system adaptability.
ARMxy Embedded Controller is used in beer fermentation control system, providing accurate data acquisition, intelligent temperature regulation and remote management functions, providing efficient and flexible solutions for beer production.. The system not only enhances the automation level of the fermentation process but also provides brewers with a convenient operational experience and data support, contributing to the production of high-quality beer.
