Pacific Sensor Technologies (PST) has released the PST-CTL2000 carcass temperature logger.
The PST-CTL2000 carcass temperature logger from Madgetech measures and records data from up to 8 thermocouple channels allowing the user to verify and validate post-production meat sterilisation cycles.
The temperature logger aids in educing pathogens, and helps to ensure post-slaughter sterilisation process parameters are met.
It has a black anodised aluminium enclosure with a stainless steel hook allowing the device to be hung directly from a carcass and it can be inserted into different sections of the meat to provide an overall temperature profile.
This logger features a push button or programmable start and status LEDs for process optimisation. In addition, if a thermocouple is removed or severed during logging, the software automatically annotates the data.
PST claimed the PST-CTL2000 can help to reduce and prevent food safety problems, improve quality and minimise the chances of a recall.
