The CEM DT-131 is a food temperature measuring instrument built to the food industry's HACCP standards. Its purpose is to determine the core temperature of food accurately and quickly, helping maintain both hygiene and quality standards. It is ideal for monitoring temperature in meat, poultry, fish, dairy, baked goods, sauces and beverages.
The DT-131 uses immersion sensor technology, allowing the probe to be inserted directly into the product with the real-time temperature shown on the LCD. Readings can be frozen (HOLD), minimum and maximum records reviewed (MIN/MAX), and measurements displayed in either °C or °F.
The body is reinforced with a shock-absorbing silicone-alloy frame, which stops the instrument slipping from the hand and adds protection against drops. The measuring probe is stainless steel for long life and easy cleaning. The battery compartment at the rear takes a standard LR44 cell and is simple to change.
Under HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point), temperature measurement is one of the most important steps in the food safety chain. The CEM DT-131 takes fast, reliable readings at critical control points, helping businesses meet their legal obligations. It suits pre-service temperature verification, cold storage checks and post-cooking temperature records.
The internal thermistor sensor is optimised to respond quickly even at high temperatures. The slim probe tip makes only a small hole in liquid or solid food, which reduces moisture loss in meat products in particular and improves accuracy. The LCD is 1 cm high and 2.5 cm wide, with an anti-glare finish that keeps it legible outdoors.
The CEM DT-131 food probe thermometer is a durable, accurate and easy-to-use instrument trusted by professionals. Its wide measuring range, accuracy and practical functions make it an ideal solution for food safety processes — a long-lasting tool for industrial kitchens and home users alike.
