CAPSens 5000
Article number: 3003-300
Food Oil Sensor CapSens5000 the device to control your food oil in the kitchen.
The high precise measurement technique of the food oil sensor CapSens 5000 will reduce your consumption costs for frying oil significantly. With this unit, you can very easily determine the current soiling level of the frying oil.
Determining the total polar components based on changes in the dielectric constant is an established technology and is unsurpassed in terms of measurements accuracy. The relatively large sensor area grants high resolution and thus high precision in the accuracy of measurements. The capacitive sensor comprises two gold electrodes, gold being ideal material for applications involving fats and oils. The sensor head is of robust construction and can be easily cleaned at any time.
CapSens5000 convinces through its compact design and the simple menu-guided manipulation. The measured values are stored in the memory of the device and can be read out or transferred to the computer at any time. The display navigates you easily and clearly through the measurement process and informs you about the steps to be taken. You can calibrate the device yourself by using the certified calibration test oil. The device regularly reminds you every 60 days about a calibration and guides you safely through the test.
CAPSens 5000 displays up to 15 measurements. Up to 1’000 measurements can be stored and transferred to a PC. An RS232 interface is provided for this purpose. The optional software FOS Value Software enables you to transmit all data as text files, in order to open and to edit them in MS-Word, MS-Excel as well as other text and spreadsheet programs such as StarOffice. This means you are always up-to-date and in a position to retrieve earlier data at any time. This guarantees uncompromised quality assurance.
