Applikon Analytical, a division of Metrohm, has introduced the ADI 2019HD process colorimeter for glucose determination to enable automated analysis to take place in the production environment.
To maintain a uniform and appealing colour, potato chips are passed through a wash bath containing a glucose solution.
The glucose concentration depletes over time and must be replenished to prevent pale, unappealing chips.
Designed to bridge the gap between the process and the laboratory, the ADI 2019HD process colorimeter provides laboratory accuracy in an online analyser.
The configuration and working range of the analyser can be adjusted to meet the exact requirements of each individual site and is built into an IP66 stainless-steel cabinet suitable for the food production environment.
Automatic calibration, either on a time basis or conditional action, is included, along with automated cleaning and the reporting of results.
The ADI 2019D process colorimeter can be augmented with optional extras such as reagent containers with level switches, sample conditioning and remote interrogation via secure internet connection.
