Felix Instruments ? Applied Food Science Announces the Launch of the F-920 Check It! Gas Analyzer

Felix Instruments – Applied Food Science is excited to announce the launch of its F-920 Check It! Gas Analyzer, the first in a new line of handheld gas detectors the company is releasing this year. The F-920 Check It! Gas Analyzer is an affordable and rapid device which measures CO2 and O2 from 0-100%. The Check It! is trailed by the F-940 Store It! and the F-960 Ripen It!, which will debut in Summer 2016 and offer the addition of ethylene gas analysis. The Check It! was designed specifically for QA personnel to take speedy measurements of CO2 and O2 with the precision they require. Displaying results in less than 6 seconds, the Check It! is one of the fastest CO2/O2 analyzers on the market, and its lightweight package makes it easy to transport anywhere along the supply chain. With a sampling volume of 6.5 mL and long-lasting sensors (sensor lifetime is 12 months), the Check It! is excellent for applications ranging from Modified Atmosphere Packaging labs and distribution centers, to storage inspection and ripening rooms. Most importantly, the Check It! is priced significantly lower than its competitors, making it accessible for any operation to implement, no matter its size or scale. “Our goal was to offer an economical CO2/O2 analyzer that was both fast and portable, without compromising the accuracy and performance of the instrument,” says Felix Instruments Sales Director Andrea Melnychenko. “Its small size, along with its dynamic display and response, make the Check It! a great fit for QA departments around the globe.” Felix Instruments has partnered with UK-based company, EMCO, to combine EMCO’s long-standing expertise making and supporting gas analyzers for food packaging with Felix Instruments’ experience manufacturing portable, reliable tools for applied food science. The Check It! will be available in late Spring 2016. Felix Instruments is accepting pre-orders now! Contact sales@felixinstruments.com or visit www. felixinstruments.com for more information.
