PCE-IR 100 (HACCP)
food thermometer
Thermometer for food able to
determine temperature both with and
without contact, meets with the HACCP
standard |
|
The
PCE-IR-100 food thermometer offers
workers in food processing, food
inspectors and customer service an easy
and effective way to check if the food
temperature is in compliance with HACCP
standards. The thermometer allows the
user to quickly test the surface
temperature of food without risk of
contamination with the infrared sensor
while also offering the possibility of
testing the internal temperature of food
using the sensor probe.
The thermometer uses LEDs to indicate
temperatures below
4ºC, temperatures between 4ºC and 60ºC
and temperatures above 60ºC. This allows
for an effective check of HACCP.

Characteristics |
- thermometer combining contact and non-contact
measurement of temperature
- wide range of measurement
- developed for the use in the food industry according to HACCP standards
- emissivity fixed at 0.97 (ideal for food)
- quick response time
- minimum and maximum Hold function
- continuous measurements over a period of time
- can be ISO calibrated. Thermometers come factory calibrated but an optional
ISO calibration and certificate can
be ordered.
- Ingress protection IP 65, which allows the thermometer to be hygenically
cleaned |
|
Measurement functions |
|
This
thermometer combines the measurement of
surface temperature (Scan)
and the measurement inside food in only
one device. This allows for the quick
orientation of temperature conditions and
also to reduce infrared measurements
thanks to the integrated sensor probe (test). |

HACCP
standards were established to always
ensure a constant in product quality
observing hygienic levels and thus
avoiding risk of contamination.
Food producers cannot put into
circulation foods that don't meet these
strict standards.
It's important to test food temperature
and the relation of temperature to time,
which serves to ensure that there there
is no risk of contamination of exposed
foods. This is particularly import
in the transport of foods as they can
travel significant distances to reach
their final destination.
The reduction of preservatives in food
means that alternative methods of
preservation are frequently used, such
as cooling or heating food. |
 |
|
There are
signals in the upper portion of the
display to assist the user:
green = safe
red
= warning
The warning range comprises of
temperatures of perishable foods which
should be exposed briefly (4 to 60ºC).
The average temperature will appear on
the display. |
|
Indication of surface point of
measurement |
|
To
take a temperature reading with the
PCE-IR 100 thermometer using
infrared accurately, the surface area
being measured is illuminated to ensure
that the correct point is being
targeted, thus avoiding errors. |
| Applications
of use |
|
The
PCE-IR-100 food thermometer can be used
in all industrial food sectors,
including production, manufacture,
transportation and storage. Also,
catering and restaurants could make use
of this thermometer for food preparation
and storage. |

Optional accessories
- ISO
calibration certificate
The ISO calibration certificate certifies this thermometer for use in
the food industry to meet national
standards. The PCE-IR-100 includes
two methods of measurement, probe
and infrared, and the thermometer
would require both to be certified
for use. |
