"HALO" Foodcare pH Meter
ideal for pH measurements in food products
HALO Wireless Foodcare pH Meter
Our HALO Wireless Foodcare pH Meter has a PVDF body, conical tip, and open junction design that resists clogging making it ideal for pH measurements in food products including dairy, dough, ground meats and other semi-solid food samples. All readings are transmitted directly to your Apple or Android device or the edge blu.
- Take laboratory grade pH and temperature measurements using your smart phone or tablet.
- Easily connect to the Hanna Lab App at the press of a button via Bluetooth wireless technology.
- Group your data by time or notation. Email it for storage or share it with friends or colleagues.
The HALO Wireless Foodcare pH Meter incorporates Bluetooth Smart technology with an application-specific design. There are several features that make it ideal for measuring the pH of food products.
Delivery equipment
HALO is supplied with with ph and ph 4.01 calibration solutions in sachet, cleaning solution electrodes in sachet, battery, quality certificate and instruction sheet.
Note: All units displayed in the images not included in this equipment are tools or configuration accessories to be purchased separately.

Low Temperature Glass Formulation
Low Temperature (LT) glass Low temperature glass for fast stabilization and more accurate results at lower temperatures. This is beneficial since many food products are stored at low temperatures.
|
 |
Built-In Temperature Sensor
HALO features a built-in temperature sensor for temperature measurement and compensation.
|
 |
Open Junction Reference
The open junction design consists of a solid gel interface (viscolene) between the sample and internal Ag/AgCl reference. This interface not only prevents silver from entering the sample, but also makes it impermeable to clogging, resulting in a fast response and stable reading.

HALO Features/Benefits
Connects to Hanna Lab App with a compatible Apple or Android Device via Bluetooth Smart Technology (Bluetooth 4.0)
Up to five-point pH calibration with seven standard pH buffers available
Calibration reminder
- Alerts you when HALO needs calibration
- Appropriate preprogrammed calibration buffer set for application specific Halo pH electrodes
Real-time data
- Displays pH and temperature updated every second
Basic Good Laboratory Practice (GLP)
- Displays date and time of current calibration along with offset and average slope
 |
Real-Time Data
Display of pH and temperature updated every second. Readings are automatically saved to a history file every hour, limited only by the available memory on the device.
|
 |
Fluid, Dynamic Graphing
Measurements can be displayed alone on the display, with tabulated data, or as a graph. The graph can be panned and zoomed with pinch-to-zoom technology for enhanced viewing.
|
 |
GLP (Good Laboratory Practice)
Displays date and time of current calibration, offset, and average slope, along with calibrated buffers, mV values, temperature and slopes between each buffer.
|
 |
Calibration Reminder & Measurement Alarms
The Hanna Lab App alerts you when HALO needs calibration or if a measurement threshold is exceeded.
