VININFO – A Control, Regulation and Information System for Wine Cellars.

VinInfo is a complete and modular system for the wine cellar in which each tank

and additional object is controlled by software installed on your computer and

connected via a simple BUS line. This system requires minimal effort, time and expense to install.

Functions supported include:

• Cooling/Heating of Fermentation, Storage Tanks & Storage Rooms
• Humidity control of Storage/Barrel Rooms
• Micro/Macro Oxygenation
• Pump Overs
• Air Injection for cap disbursement in red ferments
• CO2 measurement (when option installed)
• Operation of the glycol transfer pumps
• Customisable alarms with remote alerting to any computer or mobile phone (optional).

Components & features

• Vininfo software package with flexible control of all switchable and measurable processes.
• Dedicated high reliability PC supplied by Kreyer preloaded with Vininfo and a customized, flexible, animated cellar plan.
• Tank dedicated BU units for temperature monitoring, optional CO2 monitoring and actuation
• of any switchable process including microox, pumpover and mixing.
• BU unit for pumps and air handling
• BU for storage room controlling temperature input, heating/cooling and humidity.
• Power Supply/Data Interface unit for conversion and delivery of  power to up to 50 BU’s.

Options include:

• Stainless steel terminal box installed in the winery to give local control for tank and room temperature control and oxygen dosing. The terminal installation provides extra safety allowing continuing use in case of power failure to the server.
• CO2 Measurment Device – an exclusive system for fermentation by CO2 emission measurement, which allows the winemaker to ferment according to exact residual sugar level, applying cooling according to the actual fermentation level of the must. Also allows monitoring the start and course of the fermentation, recognition of fermentation stagnation and recording of the fermentation curve. A natural fermentation with no thermal shocks and energy saving!
• Micro-Macro Oxygenation units - enjoy the full capacity for remote management, data recording and record keeping of Macro & Micro-oxygenation via PC with the full Vininfo package combined with
• MOX hardware. Preset the oxygenation program on a time against temperature graphical format, set the temperature maxima & minima for the process, enter tank volume and process duration and you are in
• control of the process for any number of tanks. Even record your tasting notes against the tank within Vininfo note pad as you monitor the process.
• Tank Air Injection units for rumbling red ferments and mixing tanks during additions.
• Humidity Sensor for installation in barrel storage.
• Alarm extension (up to 2 inputs) can be read & signaled to a phone.
