Two of the most common queries relating to Electrochemical Analysis are:

1. There are white crystals around my electrode, is the equipment still suitable for use or has something gone wrong?
2. When I opened up my equipment, there was a clear solution in the protective cap that covers the electrode, is there a problem with the instrument?

In both instances, there is no cause for concern. To understand more, take a look at the video guide below. We have also put together a brief written overview if you prefer.

White Crystals on your Electrode

So there you have it, two of the most common queries relating to electrodes – resolved!

Whether it’s white crystals around your electrode or clear solution inside the protective cap, this doesn’t have to mean a fault with your equipment. Instead, the most likely explanation is that the Storage Solution inside the cap is keeping your electrode safe and accurate.

Colour coded gloves play a critical role in helping food manufacturing sites to maintain standards of safety, hygiene, and compliance.

The following guide outlines why they matter and which colours to use for different factory zones. It will also talk you through the process of establishing and maintaining your policy.

Which Colour Coded Gloves Are Best for Different Food Factory Zones?

There is no universal standard for colour coded gloves in food production. Instead, most food factories establish their own approach based on internal risk assessments and existing colour coding policies. That said, there are some common industry practices to consider. The examples below may serve as a useful starting point when developing or reviewing your own policy.

Blue Gloves – General Food Handling

Red Gloves – Raw Meat Handling

Yellow Gloves – Cooked Meat Handling

Orange/Purple/Lime Gloves – Allergens

Establishing Your Colour Coded Glove Policy

• Consistency is key!
  As mentioned above, sites will typically use gloves that reflect their existing colour coding policy. This helps to avoid confusion, as mistakes are easier to identify and resolve.

• Don’t overcomplicate things
  Only introduce additional colours when absolutely necessary. You want to ensure your policy is easy to follow and has the potential to grow as new products and applications are introduced.

• Speak to your supplier
  If you have any questions or concerns relating to colour coding or the specific features of your gloves, speak to your supplier.

• Manage the risks
  Carry out a thorough risk assessment and make sure your policy doesn’t overlook any obvious issues e.g. introducing white gloves to an area of your site that handles rice.

Used by food production sites to maximise hygiene and minimise downtime, SegriCovers provide
a simple yet effective solution to equipment protection.

Instead of risking expensive control panels, machines, and production lines during washdowns, you can simply cover your equipment with a heavy-duty, waterproof shield that eliminates the need for unsafe and unsustainable single-use plastic.

With SegriCovers growing in popularity, we felt it was important to answer the most common questions surrounding this solution, and what better place to start than with a step-by-step guide to measuring your equipment?

NOTE: Before we get started, we wanted to highlight a key point to remember. Photos, especially annotated photos, are extremely helpful when it comes to sharing your measurements. This is also true of machine drawings and PDFs. If you are able to submit these resources, alongside your measurements, this will simplify the process of completing your SegriCover project.

That brings us to the end of our guide to measuring your equipment for a SegriCover. We hope this article has provided a clear picture of the process involved and has given you all the information you need to confidently take your measurements.

If you have any remaining questions, our team of experts are on hand to help. You can contact them on 01473 461800 or sales@klipspringer.com. Alternatively, you can share your details using the contact form below. 

An important piece of equipment within the food production industry, infrared thermometers indicate the amount of thermal radiation being emitted by the substance you are testing. Put simply, they allow you to find out the temperature of your product without having to touch it or penetrate it with a traditional thermometer probe.

As with any equipment at your site, infrared thermometers need to be suitably maintained, stored correctly, and treated with respect. It is also important that you verify your thermometers on a regular basis, and one of the most popular approaches involves the use of a Comparator Pot.

NOTE: We want to be upfront and say that, at Klipspringer, we supply both Comparator Pots and an alternate method to verifying your thermometers – the LazaPort8. In this article we will be walking you through the process of using a Comparator Pot, but we will also be exploring the benefits of using the LazaPort8 instead.

With over 20 years experience in the industry and a dedication to providing honest and informative resources for our customers, we hope that you can trust our analysis of the two different approaches and understand the conclusion we arrive at.

Compact, lightweight, and easy to use, it’s no surprise that a lot of sites are using Comparator Pots to verify their infrared thermometers. These simple pots are especially popular at smaller factories with only a few thermometers in need of verification. If you are new to this method or would like a quick refresher, we’ve broken down the process into three simple stages:

As with any piece of equipment, the Comparator Pot has positive and negative attributes. Before making an important investment, It’s vital that you evaluate these factors alongside the specific needs of your site. From cost and ease-of-use to accuracy and range of measurement, we’ve listed the key points to consider below:

As detailed above, the Comparator Pot does have a number of limitations. Consequently, a growing number of sites are switching to the LazaPort8. This piece of equipment will not only test your infrared thermometers, but will also verify your standard thermometers. Loved by auditors and customers for ultimate traceability, it couldn’t be easier to use:

Listed below are the plus points and downfalls of a LazaPort8. Again, it is important that you take them into consideration before making a decision for your site. You can also contact our team on 01473 461800 or sales@klipspringer.com if you would like further information on this piece of equipment. 

Although we have taken you through the pros and cons of both the Comparator Pot and the LazaPort8, the final decision lies with you. After all, you are uniquely positioned to know what is best for your site. We do hope; however, this article has provided you with a balanced view of the two options available and helped you to understand our preference for the more advanced piece of equipment.

The video below should also be a valuable tool, providing helpful demonstrations of the Comparator Pot and LazaPort8 in use:

Both pieces of equipment are available to view and purchase online at klipspringer.com. Alternatively, if you require further support with your decision, simply fill out the contact form below and one of our friendly team members will be in touch.

SegriScreens have been designed for the specific purpose of segregation within the food production industry. Suited to everything from allergen segregation to washdown protection, they offer the following benefits:

Thanks to the signature design of the SegriScreen, they are also easy to assemble. In fact SegriScreen assembly should only require two operatives and around ten minutes of concentration.

Even so, we wanted to produce an online Help Guide that you can return to if you ever need to remind yourself of the process.

SegriScreen Assembly – Written Instructions

Alternatively, if you and your team would prefer to follow written instructions. You will find a step-by-step guide below:

NOTE: Master Screens (as shown in the video and images) have two wheel bases, one for each side. Additional Screens have one wheel base as the other side slots into the adjacent screen. 

NOTE: Only screw the bolts in part way, as this will allow you to tension the screen at a later stage. 

NOTE: One of the sides has a larger flap than the other. This will allow it to overlap with any adjacent screens you wish to connect.
