Advanced Instruments 4250 Single Sample Cryoscope
Fast, accurate measurements of added water in milk
The 4250 Cryoscope from Advanced Instruments supersedes the 4D3 and Fiske Mark 2 models whilst maintaining all of the outstanding qualities of these cryoscopes; robust design, proven reliability and simple, rapid operation.
The 4250 single-sample cryoscope uses the industry standard thermistor freezing point method to precisely determine added water in milk. With its on-board sample identification, broad measurement range and optimal sample size requirement, the 4250 provides accurate results compliant with ISO5764 plateau-seeking mode. The 4250 combines advanced features with simplified operation - a low maintenance, reliable high performance laboratory instrument.
The 4250 can be used in many situations and environments. Results can be displayed as desired and results can be collected on a computer or connected to a LIMS system.
Quality management is improved by the 4250's unique key-switch, which allows the advanced set-up features and calibration modes to be locked out. In Operator Mode, routine testing can be accomplished with just two buttons; in Supervisor Mode, all operations are accessible.
Suppliers and processors can keep milk shipments moving while being assured that no added water has been introduced. Up to 35 samples per hour can be measured. The calibration procedure is quick and computer controlled - it will also detect and warn the operator if the calibration solutions are tested out of order. Settings are stored in a battery-protected memory. The 4250 also incorporates a new thermal printer.
