Foodcare K-Type Thermocouple Thermometer Featuring Ultra-Fast Probe

Foodcare K-Type Thermocouple Thermometer Featuring Ultra-Fast Probe for food-process temperature checks and recorded verification

This instrument fits food processors, kitchens, breweries, and QA teams that need a practical way to capture data during checking cooking, cooling, holding, fermentation, or storage temperatures where fast response and documented control matter. 

High-Precision Thermometer for Food Safety and HACCP Compliance

The HI9350011 is a waterproof, portable K-Type thermocouple thermometer designed for food professionals who need accurate temperature monitoring in food service, production, packaging, transportation, restaurants, and catering. Equipped with CAL Check™ and a Battery Error Prevention System (BEPS), the meter ensures reliable readings and prevents errors caused by low battery or drift in internal electronics.

The meter is praised for its rapid response and high accuracy, making it ideal for HACCP plans, quality control, and laboratory verification. Its replaceable probes and durable design offer advantages over standard digital thermometers, combining speed, precision, and food-safe construction.

Ultra-Fast Response Probe

• FC766C1 K-Type probe reaches 90% of the final value within 4 seconds
• High accuracy ±0.4℃ (±0.7℉)
• Small 1.6 mm (0.06") tip for easy penetration into solids and semi-solids

AISI 316 Stainless Steel Body

The probe body is made from AISI 316 stainless steel, 95 mm (3.7") long, and safe for food contact in compliance with Regulation (EC) 1935/2004. The material is corrosion-resistant and durable for repeated use.

CAL Check™ Diagnostics

Internal CAL Check ensures the electronics are within ±0.3℃ of calibration. If drift exceeds tolerance, an error message is displayed. This feature guarantees confidence in your measurements.

Low Battery Indicator

The included AAA batteries provide up to 3500 hours of continuous operation. When battery power is below 10%, a warning symbol appears and the meter will shut down to prevent erroneous readings.

Missing or Damaged Probe Alerts

If the probe is not attached or damaged, the meter displays “NO PROBE” and blinking dashed lines to alert the user for accurate temperature monitoring.

Large, Clear LCD

The enhanced LCD shows readings in ℃ or ℉, stability indicators, error messages, and battery warnings, improving usability in professional settings.

Stability Indicator

A stability indicator confirms when a reading is stable, ensuring precise temperature measurements before recording.

Automatic Shut-Off

The meter can be set to automatically turn off after 8 or 60 minutes to conserve battery life. The auto-off feature is optional and can be disabled if continuous monitoring is required.

Ergonomic, Rugged, Waterproof Design

With IP65 rating and optional shockproof rubber boot (HI710027), the meter is designed to withstand demanding kitchen or production environments while remaining comfortable to handle.

To expand your food temperature monitoring and safety instrumentation beyond the FoodCare K‑Type Thermocouple Thermometer — a versatile digital thermometer with a K‑type thermocouple probe for rapid, accurate temperature measurement in food processing, cooking, and storage — consider additional measurement tools that enhance your quality control workflows:

• Food Core Temperature Data Logger — Provides precision core product temperature logging, ideal for verifying internal temperatures during cooking, cooling, and HACCP compliance monitoring.
• 2‑Channel Temperature and Humidity Logger — Enables simultaneous tracking of temperature and humidity, giving broader environmental context in food storage, cold rooms, and processing areas.
• RTR‑507B Wireless Temperature and Humidity Logger with High Precision Sensor — Delivers high‑accuracy, wireless environmental monitoring, ideal for continuous control in food production and storage facilities.
• Portable Water Quality Meter — A rugged, handheld multi‑parameter meter for on‑site measurement of temperature, pH, conductivity, and dissolved oxygen, useful in wash water and processing applications.

Together, these instruments help ensure comprehensive temperature and environmental monitoring across food safety, processing quality, and cold chain compliance workflows.

Application Q&A

When is data logging especially valuable?

Logging is valuable when trends matter more than a single spot reading, such as curing history, storage conditions, verification records, or alarm-driven incident response.

Who is this best suited for?

Food processors, kitchens, breweries, and qa teams will get the most value when they need repeatable measurements plus a record they can review, export, or act on later.

Because it combines Ultra-Fast response penetration probe that reaches 90% of its’ final value within 4 seconds, High accuracy ±0.4℃/±0.7℉, CAL Check to ensure internal electronics are within acceptable tolerances, this product is a strong fit for food-process temperature checks and recorded verification where documentation and repeatability are important.
