HI99162

Description

The Hanna Instruments HI99162 is a durable, waterproof, and portable Foodcare pH and temperature meter designed specifically for milk analysis. Automatic calibration is performed at one or two points with two sets of buffers. All calibration and measurement readings are automatically compensated for temperature variations.The HI99162 uses the PVDF body FC101D amplified pH electrode that offers numerous features that improve pH testing for milk producers. The split-level LCD displays both pH and temperature readings, along with indicators for reading stability, battery percentage, and calibration instructions.

• Automatic Temperature Compensation
• Automatic Two-Point Calibration
• Waterproof

The HI99162 uses the FC101D amplified pH electrode with PVDF body. This specialized electrode offers numerous features that improve pH testing for milk producers. An integrated temperature sensor allows for temperature compensated pH measurements without the need for a separate temperature probe. The contact between the bulb’s large surface area and the milk sample ensures a stable calibration and measurement.

An integral part of any pH electrode is the reference junction. The reference junction is a part of the electrode that allows for the flow of ions located in the reference cell into the sample being tested. It is vital that this flow occurs in order to complete an electrical circuit, which ultimately determines the pH value. Any clogging of the junction will prevent completion of the circuit, resulting in readings that are erratic or constantly drifting.

The FC101D probe utilizes a secondary reference chamber with ceramic outer junction allowing aqueous silver free electrolyte to flow slowly through the porous ceramic frit providing accurate readings for aqueous samples.

The durable PVDF body of the FC101D ensures pH measurements can be safely taken on the dairy farm or production floor. The components of the electrode are also able to withstand a wider range of temperatures to allow for accuracy during stages such as pasteurization, which requires heating to temperatures near 72^°C (161^°F).

Automatic Calibration
• One or two-point calibration is automatic to two selectable buffer sets

Automatic Temperature Compensation
• An integrated temperature sensor allows for automatic temperature compensation of pH measurements

Battery Error Prevention System
• The meter will automatically shut off if there isn’t enough power to obtain an accurate measurement

Battery Life Indicator
• The battery percent level is displayed at start up alerting the user to the remaining battery power that is available

Multi-Level LCD Display
• The split-level LCD displays both pH and temperature readings, along with indicators for reading stability, battery percentage, and calibration instructions

On-Screen Tutorial
• Clear tutorial messages and directions are available on-screen to quickly and easily guide users through setup and calibration

Waterproof
• The HI99162 is a waterproof meter rated IP67 for immersion in up to one meter of water for 30 minutes
