PCE Instruments Food Infrared Thermometer (PCE-IR 100)

PCE Instruments Food Infrared Thermometer (PCE-IR 100) is a dual-function temperature measuring device designed for fast and accurate food safety inspections. It features a non-contact infrared sensor for surface readings and a fold-out penetration probe for precise core temperature measurement.

This food thermometer is ideal for monitoring temperature in food storage, transportation, and preparation. With an adjustable emissivity and a quick response time of less than 500 ms, the infrared function allows for rapid, hygienic surface measurements.
