1-3. Available functions
1 Nondestructive measurement method that does not damage fish.
This device uses the "bioelectrical impedance method" to send a weak electricity
into the fish using four electrodes and estimate the fat percentage from the
impedance. Therefore, the fat rate is displayed in only 4 seconds without
damaging the fish.
2 The multi-frequency measurement method is adopted.
When electricity flows in the low frequency band, electricity flows mainly outside
the cell, and when it flows in the high frequency band, electricity also flows in the
cell. This device has adopted a multi-frequency measurement method in which
electricity flows at multiple frequencies for achieving high accuracy.
3 Measuring the fat percentage of 20 species of fish. (P.11)
This device can measure horse mackerel 1, mackerel 1, Mackerel 2, sardine,
saury, Bluefin tuna (back, belly, tail), Sea bream, Alfonsino, Bonito 1, Salmon,
Rainbow trout, Spanish mackerel, Butterfish, Sea bass, Sailfin sandfish, Grouper,
Bonito 2, Sea eel, Horse mackerel 2.
4 You can also estimate the fat ratio of unregistered fish. (P.20)
It is equipped with "calibration curve mode" to measure unregistered fish. In
impedance mode, the impedance value at 100 kHz is displayed instead of the fat
percentage. From this number, you can know the approximate fat ratio, and you
can also use Fish A, Fish B, and Fish C to create the original formula.
5 Detecting defrosted products
After freezing and thawing the fish, the cell membrane will be destroyed, so the
difference in the flow of electricity will not be seen. Using this feature, fish with
frozen history will be displayed as "defrosted". However, please note that the fat
percentage of the thawed product is not displayed.
6 Displaying the average value of the measurement results. (P. 19)
In order to determine the fat percentage from multiple measurement results, and
also to weigh several fish in a container, and to present it as the average value of
the container, the "average value calculation function" is equipped. The average
value is displayed at the bottom of the screen until you press or turn off the
power.
7 Displaying the fish status (freshness index) in 5 levels (P. 16)
Fish Analyzer TM PRO allows you to determine the condition of fish at the same
time as the fat percentage. The status of the fish is a function to see changes in
in-cells and out-cells, and changes to A ', A, B, C, D according to the deterioration
of cells and the decrease in water holding capacity. It can be used for cooking
guidelines and quality control.
8 Strict quality control can be performed. (P.20)
Fish AnalyzerTM PRO is equipped with "Fish status mode". In the fish status
mode, impedance at 5kHz is displayed along with the 5-step judgment. As the
impedance decreases along with the decrease in freshness, stricter quality control
can be performed by following this process.
