General Description & Intended Use
HI981039 Chocolate pH Tester is designed to measure the pH during the main processing steps of chocolate manufacturing and ensure it meets the food-hygiene and Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) regulations. It features a single button operation system and is easy to use. It has a compact and waterproof casing and automatic pH calibration at one or two points. All readings are automatically compensated for temperature variations with a built-in temperature sensor. The specialized pH probe has an outer junction sleeve that can be removed and cleaned, extending the life of the tester. The conical tip allows measurements to be taken directly in solid or semisolid samples.
Probe Features
Open Junction Reference
The open junction design consists of a solid gel interface between the sample and internal Ag/AgCl reference. This interface prevents silver from entering the sample and makes it impermeable to clogging, resulting in a fast response and stable reading.
Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Body
PVDF is a food-grade plastic that is resistant to most chemicals and solvents, including sodium hypochlorite, it is also resistant to fungal growth. It has high abrasion resistance, mechanical strength, and resistance to ultraviolet.
