Food & Beverage: The Spectrum of Automatic Sampling-3

Sample First – Food Safety Starts With Your Sample In the world of food testing, the analytical techniques to measure the threats are precise, often down to the sub-parts-per-trillion level. Yet, food testing commonly starts with an unreliable sample. It is captured using a rudimentary spigot or scoop sampling method. Representative sampling that is reliable and repeatable – from validation of raw ingredients to quality testing at each key processing stage – is the only way to ensure confidence in your food testing results. Ready access to safe, quality food is a basic human necessity. People...

Food & Beverage: The Spectrum of Automatic Sampling-5

Food Grade | Hygienic | 3-A Standard All food and beverages undergo some form of processing, and those processes need to follow good manufacturing practices (GMP), as well as local, national and international food safety regulations. A food safety sampling and analysis program provides controlled, real-time data and is aligned with regulatory requirements. Such as, the hazard analysis and risk-based preventive control (HARPC) provisions under the U.S. FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). LOW RISK • Food grade samplers include 316 stainless steel contact surfaces and FDA compliant seals....

Food & Beverage: The Spectrum of Automatic Sampling-6

Representative sampling is the act of capturing a limited volume of material that accurately reflects the characteristics of the entire lot, batch, or process stream. The process stream, conditions, material characteristics, safety hazards, certification standards and regulatory requirements all play a role in defining your sampling application. Automated sampling means safely obtaining a sample in a process line, chute, hopper, bin, conveyor or tube without the need for direct human interaction. Production can run continuously while protecting operators, ensuring the integrity of the sample,...
