What is HACCP?
The word HACCP stands for Hazard Analysis & Critical Control Point, and put simply, it refers to processes and procedures that must be put in place to ensure that any food that is produced is safe.
In Ireland, since 1998 it has been a legal requirement for all food businesses to have a food safety management system based on the principles of HACCP.
Within a food safety management system, Critical Control Points (CCP) and critical limits should be identified and these should include the temperature measurement of food during processing & distribution to the consumer.

How can Eurolec help you with HACCP compliance?
To help you comply with HACCP, we can provide you with all of the temperature measurement and calibration equipment that you will need.
THERMOMETERS
Precision Reference Thermometers, High Temperature Thermometers, TH Series Probe Thermometers, PC Temp Series Thermometers & Infra-Red Thermometers
TH & PC Temp Series
A range of portable, handeld thermometers using either metal cases (TH Series) or plastic cases (PC Temp Series).
Ideal for use across a wide range of industries and applications wherever there is a need for simple, accurate measurement of temperature, the TH and PC Temp series provide a solution.
T-type probes and themocouples are ideal for HACCP with the required level of accuracy provided.
- TH Series Metal case using T-Type probes
- PC Temp Series Lightweight design using T-Type probes
IR Series
A range of Infrared thermometers suitable for non-contact temperature measurements.
The Eurolec IR151 and IR152 feature a robust aluminium case and a clear, backlit display.
The IR151 uses a fixed emitter in the top of the case whereas the IR152 uses a handheld sensor/lens.
In addition to the IR series, we can also supply the Testo range of IR based thermometers.
RT Series
A range of bench-top and portable reference thermometers designed for high accuracy measurements and as a reference check for the accuracy of other thermometers and temperature calibration sources.
All instruments use a platinum film probe. The PC Temp RT2 is a portable, handheld version of the desktop RT162 instrument.
The RT163 provides switchable °C/°F, RS232 output and mains power.
- RT162 -30.00°C to +199.99°C
- RT163 -30.00°C to +200.00°C
- PC Temp RT2 -30.00°C to +199.99°C
A range of thermometers designed for high temperature measurement using K-Type thermocouples.
The temperature range and features available from the measurement instrument depend on the selection of the thermocouple type and the specific instrument chosen.
Examples of high temperature thermometers include:
- TH102KC -200°C to +1200°C
- PC Temp K2 -40°C to +1000°C
- BMK Desktop Thermometer suitable for K-Type Thermocouples
TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION SOURCES
Precision & Economy Temperature Calibration Sources
CS Series
A range of precision dry-block & black body temperature calibration sources, ideal for high accuracy temperature calibration processes.
The CS174 & CS175 instruments are available with additional blank inserts that allow for user customisation of the probe holes in the insert.
All versions include a temperature control system and a pocket for a reference thermometer, allowing for greater accuracy of the calibration system.
- CS173 +30°C to +200°C
- CS174/CS174-IN 40°C below ambient to +85°C
- CS175/CS175-IN 40°C below ambient to +85°C
- CS350 +30°C to +350°C
- CS650 +30°C to +650°C
