Portable Fruit Hardness Tester LFHT-A10

The Labtron Portable Fruit Hardness Tester is designed to measure the firmness or hardness of fruits. It helps ensure that fruits meet quality standards in terms of ripeness and texture. This device is especially useful in the food industry, agriculture, research laboratories, and educational institutions. It allows users to consistently monitor fruit quality during production, storage, and shipping, making it a valuable tool for farmers, food processors, and researchers alike.

The Labtron tester offers high precision and reliability. It can measure hardness within a range of 0.4 to 20 kilograms per square centimeter (Kg/cm²), which is equivalent to ×10? pascals. The device has a fine resolution of 0.01 Kg/cm² and an indication error margin of just ±0.5%, ensuring accurate and repeatable measurements. This level of precision makes it suitable for professional applications where detailed analysis of fruit firmness is important.

The device is equipped with a large digital display for clear readings and includes a peak hold function to capture the maximum value during testing. It has easy mounting, making it simple to set up and operate in various environments. The tester is energy-efficient, with a rechargeable battery that supports both 100V to 240V input, allowing it to be used internationally. Additionally, it stores up to 896 test results, which is helpful for keeping track of testing history without needing to manually log each reading.

The tester includes a RS232 nine-hole socket data interface, which allows users to connect it to external devices such as computers or printers for data transfer and analysis. This feature is particularly useful for researchers or quality control professionals who need to archive and analyze large amounts of test data. With its internal storage capacity of up to 896 test results, users can also review previous readings directly on the device before transferring them.

Yes, the device is built to function reliably under various environmental conditions. It operates effectively within an ambient temperature range of 5°C to 35°C, and it can be transported in temperatures from -10°C to 60°C. It works well in environments with 15% to 80% relative humidity, as long as there are no corrosive substances or strong vibrations present. This makes it suitable for use in both fieldwork and laboratory settings.
