LACTOSCAN
Technical specifications — part I |
Lactoscan is supplied in different versions. Choose between Lactoscan LC, Lactoscan S, Lactoscan SA, Lactoscan LA and Lactoscan MCC. To obtain the optimal guaranteed performance on results of your local milk, you can make your own local adjustments to the device calibration. The adjustment can be made for all milk programs and cream and for all parameters.
LACTOSCAN
Pre-calibrated for 3 types milk — cow milk, sheep milk and UHT. On customer's request the calibrations could be for another milk types (buffalo milk, goat milk, skim milk, whey, ice-cream mixtures, recovered milk and cream).
Measuring parameters: fat, protein, lactose, solids-non-fat (SNF), freezing point, added water, milk temperature, salts, total solids, density, pH, conductivity.
Calibration principle
Calibration procedure
• integrated in the devices with LCD display
• devices with LED display — easy-to-use PC software and data storage
Corrections
Use only two samples — low FAT and high FAT
Performance data
Measuring speed: Approx. 40, 60, 120 milk samples per hour (depending on the model)
Measuring range:
| Measuring parameters |
Analytical range in milk |
| Fat |
0,01– 25% (45%*) |
| Solids-non-fat (SNF) |
3% – 40% |
| Density** |
1015 – 1160 kg/m3 |
| Protein |
2% – 7% |
| Lactose |
0,01% –20% |
| Added water |
0% – 70% |
| Milk sample temperature |
1°C – 40°C |
| Freezing point |
–0,4°C — –0,7°C |
| Salts |
0,4% – 4% |
| PH* |
0 – 14 |
| Conductivity* |
3 – 10 [mS/cm] |
| Total solids |
0 –50% |
* pH and conductivity measurements are optional and are embedded in the device on customers' request
** Density data are shown in an abbreviated form. For example 27.3 have to be understood as 1027.3 kg/m3. To determine the milk density, write down the result from the display and add 1000.
Example: result 21,20; density = 1000 + 31,20 = 1031,2 kg/m3
