Precious food deserves the greatest care – “From Farm To Fork” with Testo Measurement Solutions

From the raw material to the finished consumer product – through food production & quality assurance, food transportation, supermarkets, restaurants & kitchens; regardless of the production chain link for which you are responsible, Testo’s measurement technology offers you food safety throughout the chain.

Whether you are taking a spot check or long-term measurements, monitoring temperatures or other measurement parameters such as pH values and cooking oil quality: Testo offers application-optimized, secure measurement solutions for all areas of the food industry. The measuring instruments and data loggers from Testo fulfil HACCP requirements, GMP standards and other international norms as well as the calibration requirements of the German Accreditation Body (DAkkS).


In food processing, every step must be provably monitored without interruption: If it isn’t documented, it doesn’t exist. Reliable measurement technology – for example the data logger testo 175 T1 or the infrared thermometer testo 805 – ensures objective data and simplifies efficient control.

In food production, care is of the essence. Temperature checks in production processes are equally important for quality as the fulfillment of hygiene requirements and the maintenance of defined ambient conditions. Testo measuring instruments such as the one-hand temperature and pH measuring instrument are precise, ready to use at any time, and simplify monitoring.

Wherever your goods are in transport, in storage and in sales, Testo instruments help ensure they arrive fresh and undamaged at their destination. For example the data monitoring system testo SaverisTM  or the infrared thermometer testo 826-T1.

In a kitchen or a restaurant, many raw materials are processed simultaneously, prepared dishes must be kept warm for longer periods, and food service must then be especially quick. With Testo measurement technology such as the handy waterproof mini-thermometer, you always have the temperature under control.

The patented Testo cooking oil tester allows fast check measurements, simply during ongoing operations. Between 14 and 22 percent TPM (Total Polar Materials), cooking oil develops its best potential. You use the oil optimally, guarantee constantly high quality of deep-fried foods, and reduce your operating costs.

Food quality is thus measurable.

Detect CO reliably, identify malfunctions and avoid danger with CO Monitor

Carbon monoxide (CO) gas is formed from the combination of a carbon atom with an oxygen atom. Not only flammable, it is also very hazardous since it is very toxic and odorless. It cannot sustain life and is produced, among other things, from incomplete combustion due to lack of oxygen. It can therefore cause domestic accidents if heating systems are poorly maintained. It is produced on a large scale in industry, in combination with hydrogen, by reforming hydrocarbons, generally natural gas. It is used in large quantities to produce various intermediary organic chemicals, such as acetic acids, isocyanates, formic acid, and also certain polymers such as polycarbonates and polyketones.

The current Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) permissible exposure limit (PEL) for carbon monoxide is 50 parts per million (ppm) parts of air (55 milligrams per cubic meter (mg/m(3)) as an 8-hour time-weighted average (TWA) concentration.

CO is the most common gas, which is detected for leakage, in all sorts of industries. Leakages from combustion devices like boilers, gas turbines, furnaces, heaters, incinerators, and from gas pipelines, and vessels, are detected using handheld, and fixed gas detection systems.

Testo 317-3 is one of the commonly used gas detectors in the industry. Its important to identify and stop a CO leakage at the earliest, and hence, fast and accurate detection of the leaked gas is of primary importance.  Testo 317-3 was developed to detect and measure CO gas absolutely reliably, and in case of danger to provide warning without delay.

The testo 317-3 is absolutely insensitive to temperature fluctuations as well as humidity, and identifies malfunctions on a burner quickly and securely. It reports just as reliably when dangerous CO concentrations form in pellet stores - optically as well as audibly. You can evaluate the danger quickly and precisely thanks to the ppm display.
