The 2900 from YSI has been launched with additional data flexibility for in-house quality assurance in fields such as the monitoring of sucrose and glucose levels by potato growers.
Sucrose and glucose levels are closely monitored by potato growers while in storage and by manufacturers during processing.
As potatoes age, the carbohydrates convert to sugars and regular sample testing allows for the optimum storage time to be determined to suit the end application - for example, crisp production.
Using the YSI 2900, data can be saved on a memory stick, sent over a network, or accessed from the database at any time.
The system supports connection with RS232, Ethernet, USB and OPC. Results can also now be determined in a minute or less.
The YSI 2900 uses the same enzyme technology as is predecessor, but with extra features such as icon driven touch screen, on board training, anti-clogging mechanisms and built in auto sampler.
