Food Tracker ensures food safety

At the 2016 Cfia exhibition, Fluke Process Instruments will showcase comprehensive temperature profiling solutions. A range of Datapaq Food Tracker systems for in-process measurements and the industry-specific analysis software cover all temperature monitoring requirements in cook and chill processes. Automatic functions include HACCP validation and multiple simultaneous food lethality calculations (F0/Pu value, D-value, chill rate Critical Control Point). The company’s innovative optimisation tool predicts the effect of parameter changes on the process, significantly reducing setup times. The modular systems are available with state-of-the-art six- or eight-channel data loggers which, depending on where the thermocouples are placed, record the development of foodstuff internal temperature, air temperature, and even humidity throughout the process. The Datapaq MultiPaq21 loggers can manage eight consecutive measurement runs before data download to a computer. The systems can also be set up for data transmission via radio and real-time data export via OPC (‘Open Platform Communications’).
