Hanna HI98161 Professional Foodcare Portable pH Meter – Precision for Food & Dairy Applications

The Hanna HI98161 Professional Foodcare Portable pH Meter is a premium-grade portable pH meter from Hanna’s Foodcare line, engineered specifically for accurate pH and temperature measurements in food, dairy, and semi-solid samples. With high resolution, automatic calibration, GLP support, and an IP67-rated waterproof design, this meter delivers laboratory-level accuracy in demanding field or production environments.

Key Features

• Designed for Food Industry Applications
  Includes the FC2023 food-grade pH electrode with a durable PVDF body and internal temperature sensor, ideal for direct measurement in semi-solid and liquid foods like cheese, yogurt, meats, and sauces.

• High-Precision pH Measurement
  Offers flexible resolution and accuracy across three formats:

  • pH: –2.000 to 20.000

  • Resolution: 0.1 / 0.01 / 0.001 pH

  • Accuracy: ±0.1 / ±0.01 / ±0.002 pH

• Advanced Calibration Options
  Supports up to five-point calibration using seven standard buffer options (pH 1.68 to 12.45) and five custom buffer points, ensuring accurate readings even under challenging conditions.

• Temperature Compensation & Logging
  Automatic temperature compensation ensures measurement accuracy across wide temperature ranges (–20.0 to 120.0°C). On-demand data logging stores 200 samples (100 pH and 100 mV readings).

• Durable and Waterproof
  IP67-rated housing protects the meter in wet or dusty food processing areas. Operates in harsh environments with 100% relative humidity tolerance.

• GLP Compliance and PC Connectivity
  Complete with Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) features and opto-isolated USB connectivity for data management and traceability via HI92000 software.

• Extended Battery Life
  Powered by 4 x 1.5V AA batteries, the meter runs for up to 200 hours (50 hours with backlight), ensuring reliability during long field sessions or daily use.
