InfraLab Series 9 Food Analyzer

Rapid, At-Line Analysis of Moisture, Fat/Oil, Protein and Degree of Bake

  1. Too much fat or oil in a product will dramatically affect it’s overall quality.
  2. Moisture control is a key parameter for many food, industrial bulk and converting manufacturers. The need to keep products consistent is what determines the overall quality and satisfaction of the customer.
  3. Protein- Reliable Content Analysis for Optimal Blended Meat BatchesSpeeding up batch release and reducing lean give-away are key goals to nearly all meat processors. Our InfraLab At-Line analyzer accurately and reliably measures the fat, moisture, protein and collagen content in meat samples. Suitable for beef, lamb, pork and poultry applications, InfraLab measures the product parameters in less than 10 seconds, while next to the production line.

The non-contact InfraLab Series 9 At-Line Food Analyzer provides rapid accurate measurement of moisture, fat and protein in single- or multiple-component configurations in a variety of food products.

KEMIO™ disinfection in poultry processing

A range of disinfectants are utilised to maintain plant biosafety and to manufacture a pathogen-free, safe-to-consume product. From traditional chemicals, such as chlorine to newer, more widely accepted ones such as peracetic acid (PAA), disinfectants are a vital component of any poultry facility. Palintest technologies help businesses to reach the highest standards of food safety through critical process and disinfection control. Offline monitoring techniques are the most feasible, least effort-intensive methods. There are several methods to conduct tests offline and in the example of monitoring peracetic acid, the best methods are HPLC or two-stage titration. Based on offline chrono-amperometric technology that is highly accurate and ideal for field-use. Kemio™ eliminates the complexity and training challenges encountered with drop count kits while achieving laboratory grade accuracy, driven by the fundamentals of single-use chemical sensors.

  • Multiparameter testing platform Performs tests for bromine, chlorine (free and total), chlorine dioxide, chlorite and peracetic acid (PAA) on one instrument with the use of different sensors. Full list of Kemio sensors.
  • Kemio is unaffected by colour, turbidity, hydrogen peroxide or organic load of the sample
  • Efficient testing Rapid testing (within 60 seconds)
  • Suitable for all users
  • Fully traceable data Up to 10,000 results can be stored on the instrument eliminating the need for maintaining paper records.
  • Suitable for all sample types Not affected by color, turbidity, pH, hydrogen peroxide concentration or the organic load of the sample.
  • Safer for the operator requiring no glassware or chemicals
  • Maintenance and calibration free Single-use, disposable amperometric sensors.
  • Laboratory levels of accuracy Independently verified

KEMIO™ disinfection in Food Process & Production

Sanitation is employed in all food and beverage sectors, often with stringent controls and regulations. Monitoring and validation of these sanitizers helps ensure produce quality and safety is protected. Palintest technologies are used in facilities across the food and beverage industry to protect produce quality and safety.

Cold Aseptic Filling (CAF)

Cold Aseptic Filling involves bottling a product at ambient temperatures. A cost effective and healthy way of packaging, it is used for bottling of a wide variety of dairy and beverage products.

Cleaning in Place (CIP)

Cleaning in Place involves the cleaning of the machinery and pipework using a mixture of chemicals, heat and water without dismantling or opening equipment.

Dip Tank and Chiller

Dip, dry or dump tanks and chillers are used to process a range of fresh produce and poultry products. These must be carefully controlled to ensure produce is safe for consumption.

Flume and Spray Bar

Flume and spray bars are a critical process in preventing cross-contamination and reducing microbial counts on produce surfaces.

Irrigation Water

Irrigation water includes water required for the growth of crops both outside and indoor in more controlled environments.

Tools and Surfaces

Any tools and surfaces that come into contact with produce must be cleaned and sanitized. This is a critical process to prevent any cross contamination to other produce.
