Quick and easy color detection for food and beverage

The EasyPlus UV/VIS measuring device from Mettler Toledo represents a significant opportunity for the industry, offering uncomplicated, space-saving, and cost-effective color analysis of food and beverages. The device is straightforward to use and comes with 30 pre-installed color scales. Its DIN A4 sheet size makes it an ideal analysis instrument for quick, compliant results. It is well-suited for use as a standalone solution in departments, for mobile use, or to relieve large laboratories.

The compact and versatile EasyPlus UV/VIS spectrophotometer from Mettler Toledo recently proved its strengths in color analysis during the formulation of a new soy sauce. The developers of an international food producer used the special advantages of the flexible EasyPlus UV/VIS spectrophotometer for this purpose. With the device, they added a local and quickly deployable analysis unit to their always busy central laboratory, which enabled the team to carry out precise absorption and CIELab measurements in 3.5-millimeter quartz cuvettes directly in the department. The small size and high performance of the flexible small laboratory were so convincing that a second device was ordered immediately.

Featuring 30 pre-installed color scales and simple touchscreen operation, the EasyPlus UV/VIS measuring device from Mettler Toledo delivers compliant results and is ideal as a flexible mini lab meter.

Little power pack

The reasons could be highlighted in color: The EasyPlus UV/VIS spectrophotometer simplifies the color control of liquid foodstuffs in accordance with regulations - quickly, conveniently, and inexpensively. With 30 pre-stored color indices and reference values, the device immediately shows whether a sample meets the defined quality standards. With the additional EasyDirect™ UV/VIS software, the device can also convert a measurement into two additional color scales, which significantly reduces the analysis effort. The robust lamp also requires no warm-up time.

Convenient use

The minilab is also extremely easy to operate and takes the strain off staff: the EasyPlus UV/VIS spectrophotometer guides the user step by step through the entire testing process via a touchscreen display. Neither installation nor on-site training is required. To get started with color analysis, Mettler Toledo provides information material for download and video tutorials.

As soon as the lid of the measuring device is closed, the analysis starts automatically. The integrated PathDetect™ function automatically recognizes which of the up to seven possible cell sizes or path lengths is being measured, thereby reducing application errors.

Variable all-rounder

In addition to color analysis of numerous substances, the all-rounder is also suitable for spectrophotometric tasks and water tests. This makes the analysis unit a trump card for small and medium-sized companies, giving specialist departments flexibility and independence from central and external laboratories.
