Description

The HI83730 Portable Photometer for the Determination of Peroxide Value in Oils combines accuracy and ease of use in an ergonomic, portable design. A user can accurately determine the peroxide value of olive oil within a 0.0 to 25.0 meq O2/kg range using the HI83730-20 ready made reagents.

• Automatic Shut Off
• Built-in Timer
• Ready-made Reagents

The HI83730 portable photometer is for the determination of peroxide value in edible oils. Hanna’s portable photometers feature an advanced optical system; the combination of a special tungsten lamp, a narrow band interference filter, and silicon photodetector ensure accurate photometric readings every time. The exclusive cuvette locking system ensures that the cuvette is inserted into the measurement cell in the same position every time to maintain a consistent path length.

  Features/Benefits:
Auto-shut off
•  Automatic shut-off after 15 minutes of non-use when the meter is in measurement mode.
•  Prevents wastage of batteries in the event the meter is accidentally left on.

Built in timer
• Display of time remaining before a measurement is taken. Ensures that all readings are taken at the appropriate reaction intervals for the test being performed.

Battery status indicator
• Indicates the amount of battery life left.

Error messages
• Messages on display alerting to problems including no light, inverted sample, and out of range.

Units of measure
• Appropriate unit of measure is displayed along with reading.

Zero key
• A simple press of the zero key on the face of the meter will account for the color and imperfections in the oil sample before reagent addition.
