Hanna Instruments HI-98161 is a portable pH and temperature meter designed to be used in the Food sector. The HI-98161 is supplied with an FC2023 electrode, specifically made to measure all types of samples e.g. solid and semi-solid foods. This electrode has a conic tip shape to avoid samples clogging the reference junction and for easy penetration. The FC2023 has a Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) food-grade plastic body to resist most chemicals and solvents.

The Hanna HI-98161 unique CAL Check™ alerts the user to potential problems in the calibration process. Food processors will find this very important as the probe is likely coated with the solids found in the food sample being measured. Once the probe is coated, it could lead to errors in the pH measurement. Another one of the HI-98161 features is AutoHold. Once enabled it will warn the user when a reading is not within the range of calibrated pH values. The Log-on-demand mode lets the user save up to 200 samples which can then be recalled or transferred to a PC.
