QuickCheck™ Flex Cryoscope

SKU: QC-FLEX
Dimensions: 17 in × 17 in × 14 in
Price: $6,929.00

The only 12 Volt -DC powered (battery)instrument*, the portable QC-FLEX is a tool for rural or remote locations off the ‘grid’ or in areas where AC power is not always reliable.  Applications include milking parlors, bulk tanks, collection centers, milk trucks, use by herd management teams & field reps.  Bringing you real-time information about added water, when you need it – where you need it:  Check the bulk tank to monitor for added water caused by improperly drained lines, condensation, etc.  Screen milk samples for extraneous water upon pick up at the farm, prior to loading, to confirm compliance with recommended levels.  *Optional AC capabilities (w/an external AC/DC Converter) facilitate use in milk reception, on-farm bottling & dairy processing plants.

The QC-FLEX is compliant with AOAC 990.22-1993, IDF 108C:2009, ISO 5764:2009 and BS3095: Part 2:1988

APPLICATIONS:
Milking Parlors/Bulk Tanks:
Check milk collected in the bulk tank to monitor for added water which can be caused by improperly drained milking lines, condensation in the bulk tank etc.
Tanker Trucks:
Screen milk samples for extraneous water upon pick-up at the farm, at loading, to confirm compliance with minimal levels
