The ConductScience Pesticide Residue Tester is a benchtop food-safety instrument designed to detect pesticide residues in fresh produce.
The tester is available in an 8-channel or 16-channel configuration, allowing laboratories and inspection stations to process multiple samples simultaneously. Results are displayed on a built-in LCD screen.
With a transmittance accuracy of ≤ ±1.5% and repeatability of ≤ 0.5%, the system delivers consistent, reproducible measurements suited to routine food-safety screening. A network interface supports connectivity for data management. The compact footprint (38 cm × 30 cm × 17 cm) makes it practical for quality-control labs, agricultural testing centers, and produce inspection facilities where bench space is at a premium.

How many samples can be tested at the same time?
The instrument is available in either an 8-channel or a 16-channel version, so you can choose the configuration that matches your required throughput.
How is transmittance measurement accuracy specified?
Transmittance accuracy is rated at ≤ ±1.5%, with a repeatability of ≤ 0.5% and a linear error of ≤ 5%, ensuring reliable, consistent readings across a sample batch.
What operating conditions does the tester need?
It works at 0 to 40 °C and 35 to 85% humidity, and it runs from a power adapter that converts 220 V to 12 V, 3 A.
How are results recorded or shared?
Results are shown on the built-in LCD display. A network interface is also included for connectivity to external data systems.
