Hanna HI935012 Brewing Thermometer

Description

The Ultimate Thermometer for Brewers

The Hanna HI935012 Brewing Thermometer is a rugged and precise instrument specifically designed to meet the tough environmental demands of the beer sector. Its waterproof, IP65-rated body is built to withstand knocks, drops, and spills, making it the perfect tool for use in breweries. This meter is engineered for measuring temperature throughout the entire brewing process, from mashing and fermentation to packaging and storage. The extra-long stainless steel probe, FC762N2, is designed for continuous contact with foodstuffs and can be used to measure both air and product internal temperatures.

The HI935012 is a valuable asset for brewers, as precise temperature control is central to brewing operations. Spot-checking temperatures at various points like the hot water tank, mash tank, boil kettle, and fermenter ensures that daily routines are executed correctly and that equipment is operating efficiently. These consistent temperature checks provide peace of mind that the brewing operation is running smoothly and that the quality of the final batch will not be compromised. The meter’s durable, professional design and features provide reliability and accuracy, giving brewers the confidence they need in their measurements.

Key Features for Uncompromised Performance

One of the standout features of the Hanna Brewing Thermometer is the exclusive CAL Check™ technology. This feature automatically checks the meter’s calibration status at startup, reassuring you that your meter is performing at its best and that you can be confident in all your results. When a probe is connected, the display will stabilize and show “0.0°C” or “32.0°F” if the calibration is within the accepted range. The meter also offers user calibration at 0°C (32°F) using an ice bath, providing an easy way to ensure accuracy.

For extended use and peace of mind, the meter comes with a long-lasting battery life of approximately 4500 hours of continuous use with three 1.5V AAA alkaline batteries. The display includes a battery tag that blinks when the remaining battery life is less than 10%. The Battery Error Prevention System (BEPS) prevents poor readings by automatically shutting the meter off if the battery charge is too low to guarantee good measurements. Additionally, the auto-off feature can be set to shut down the meter after 8 or 60 minutes of inactivity, or it can be disabled entirely to conserve battery life.

Portable and User-Friendly Design

The HI935012 is designed for convenience and ease of use in any brewing environment. Its compact and ergonomic design fits comfortably in your hand for on-the-go testing. The large LCD display provides clear, at-a-glance readings from any angle, and single-button operation simplifies the entire testing process for any brewer. To further enhance its durability, the meter’s IP65-rated body is well-protected against dust and water splashes from all directions. A Quick DIN connector makes attaching and removing the probe simple and easy, while its rubber coating protects the cable and creates a sealed connection for added reliability.

Specifications for Precision and Reliability

The Hanna HI935012 thermistor-style thermometer measures temperatures from -20.0 to 120.0°C (-4.0 to 248.0°F). The meter’s accuracy is ±0.1°C (-20.0 to 120.0°C) and ±0.2°F (-4.0 to 248.0°F) at 23.0°C ±5°C. The included FC762N2 probe has an accuracy of ±0.3°C in the range of -10.0 to 80.0°C and ±0.5°F in the range of 14 to 176°F. The meter provides temperature readings with a resolution of 0.1°C or 0.1°F. Its robust construction, featuring a ruggedized case and a stainless steel probe, ensures it can withstand the demanding conditions of a brewery.

The Right Probe for the Job

The HI935012 comes with the FC762N2 thermistor probe, which features a 1-meter-long stainless steel shaft. This extra-long design allows you to reach deep into tanks and kettles without compromising safety or accuracy. The probe is both durable and easy to clean, making it the perfect companion for the brewing environment. What’s more, this thermometer works with a wide range of thermistor probes, allowing for complete interchangeability within the FC762 series. This means you can switch from one probe to another without requiring recalibration, offering flexibility and convenience for different measurement needs.
