    There are so many different types of digital food thermometers, sometimes it can be a little confusing on how to choose the correct thermometer for your temperature needs.

    Options include plug in probe thermometers, compact folding thermometers, pocket thermometers, multi-channel thermometers, coolbox thermometers, fridge and freezer thermometers - all suitable for the food sector and featuring different temperature ranges and accuracy performances.


    A big plus when you choose to buy a thermometer from Techris Systems is that all our thermometers are automatically supplied with a calibration certificate traceable to National Standards  at no extra cost - that's guaranteed!

  • What is HACCP?

    HACCP stands for Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point and refers to procedures that someone working in the food sector or business must put in place to ensure that food is safe. Food thermometers from Techris Systems can play an important role in your HACCP plan.

  • Is a Calibration Certificate Necessary when Purchasing a Thermometer and how often should calibration be done?

    Industry legislation and/or guidelines will dictate whether you require a calibration certificate and how frequently the certificate should be updated. Many food or Pharmachem related applications require that calibration certificates are renewed at least annually. It is important to note that a nationally recognised calibration certificate such as the Irish National Accreditation Board (INAB) traceable certificate offers the confidence and security in knowing that your measurements are accurate and reliable.


    Techris Systems provide calibration certificates traceable to National Standards with ALL new thermometers and data loggers included in the price.
