for readings
Measure anywhere
Get lab-quality water activity (aw) measurements no matter what step of your process, thanks to the 4TE's rugged hardware and internal temperature control. At the line, receiving dock, processing plant, storage facility, or even outside the quality control lab - anywhere you need to test and verify the safety and quality of your products.
aw accuracy
The secret to the 4TE’s speed and accuracy is in its unique chilled mirror dew point sensor. The dew point sensor is a primary measure of water activity. Unlike other water activity sensors, the dew point sensor measures water activity (aw) directly, not secondary parameters correlated with water activity. This makes the 4TE extremely accurate, so you can have complete confidence in your sample readings.
Easy maintenance
AQUALAB 4TE lets you spot contamination quickly with the flip of the lid. The sample chamber can be opened for any easy-to-clean maintenance.
Starter set
All verified AQUALAB 4TE’s are shipped with a calibration certificate, power cord, USB A to USB B cable, 50 disposable sample cups, an AQUALAB cleaning kit, and two vials of each of the verification solutions.
Built for abuse
Take readings in the harshest conditions – on the line, in receiving or shipping areas. Aqualab devices don’t need a pristine lab to consistently deliver quality data.
