Abstract
An instrument developed for the rapid and accurate measurement of brine concentrations during blanching without disturbing the routine blanching operation is described. The concentration is sensed by a plantinum electrode conductivity cell and displayed in a moving coil meter after conversion of the electric signals into D.C. voltage. The instrument can measure in the range 5 to 12% with an accuracy of plus or minus 1%. The errors caused mostly are those due to wide temperature variations of the brine between 95 to 102 degree C and the unknown quantities of protein.
