The HI98162 is a rugged, waterproof, Foodcare portable pH meter to measure pH and temperature of milk products using the specialized FC1013 probe for milk products. Understanding the pH of raw milk can help producers optimize their processing techniques. Measuring milk pH helps identify impurities, spoilage, and signs of infection. This professional, waterproof meter complies with IP67 standards and comes with all of the necessary accessories to perform a pH/temperature measurement packaged in a durable thermoformed carrying case that holds the meter, probe, and calibration buffers securely in place.
The FC1013 pH electrode has a food-grade PVDF body that is durable and chemically resistant.
A large surface area provides optimal contact between the sensing bulb and aqueous milk sample.
A thermistor temperature sensor in the tip of the indicating pH bulb, providing the most accurate, temperature-compensated measurements
Setup screen
Our extensive setup screen features a host of configurable options such as time, date, temperature units and language for help screens and guides.
Calibration
pH calibration features detailed CAL Check™ messages. Users are guided through the calibration procedure with step-by-step on-screen instructions.
GLP
Comprehensive GLP functions are directly accessible by pressing the GLP key. Calibration data, including: date, time, offset, slope and buffers used in the last calibration can be reviewed.
Contextual help at the press of a button
High contrast, graphic LCD screen is easy viewing in bright sunlight and low-lit areas
Five-point pH calibration with seven standard buffers and five custom buffers
Displays overall condition of the pH electrode after calibration based on the offset and slope characteristics
Calibration timeout to alert the user at a defined interval when the calibration has expired
AutoHold freezes displayed measurement reading when stable
GLP data including date, time, pH calibration buffers, offset, and slope
200 hour battery life with battery level displayed on measurement screen
