Loma Products & Services > Temperature Measurement > Overview

Non-Destructive System

The Loma Celsius has set a new world-wide standard for cost savings and temperature measurement in the food industry. The non-destructive nature of the test means zero product or packaging wastage, the foolproof nature of the measurement enables a rapid evaluation of the target average product temperature. This advanced, innovative and award-winning system has consistently demonstrated significant returns on investment based on product wastage alone.

Technology

Utilising advanced microwave thermometry technology; Celsius has the ability to accurately read the entire product temperature without destroying the product or packaging. It operates on the principle that there is correlation between the amount of microwave energy emitted by a foodstuff and its overall temperature. The unit itself is passive; it does not emit microwave energy and consumes less than 200W.

Celsius not only gives the most accurate results available but is also the first system to provide measurements of all areas within a product, meaning that manufactures can get a true idea of their product temperature and thus manage their freezers, chillers and ovens more effectively. For chilled and frozen products a reading too high and the product may be unsafe, too low and energy is being wasted. With hot products the converse is true.

Quick and easy

The highest accuracy available results in only 5 seconds with no human error. Celsius electronic record keeping eliminates paperwork and with instant access via Ethernet, puts the results directly in the hands of QA management rather than line operators. This along with the use of the barcode scanner offers far greater greater traceability and quality assurance.

Outstanding reliability

Extensive R&D and field test programmes have gone in to producing a system one leading retailer described,” as the equipment the industry has been waiting for.”

Robust, reliable, proven, with independent verification by food research associations and global manufacturers: Celsius offers an easy and effective way to reduce costs and increase confidence in manufacturers temperature control processes.
