What is RTR-601?
Thermo Recorder Push Wireless RTR-601 is a handy-type device which acts both as a thermometer
and a temperature recorder, which has been designed to easily measure and record the internal
temperature of food items and liquid temperature using a needle-type sensor.
This product has been designed to meet IP64 standards (splash resistant; rated for use in daily
life). RTR-601 measures and records core temperature, which makes it suitable for use in the food
production industry especially temperature management for HACCP.
The unit incorporates a battery life warning function, which informs the user when it is time to
replace the battery. When the battery power becomes low, all normal operations will stop in order to
protect the data.
The LCD Backlight allows the display to be easily read even in low light. The LCD contrast can also
be easily adjusted for better viewing.
These units are also designed with short range wireless functions that when coupled with our
exclusive software set "Push Wireless Communication Set (RTR-601SK)", makes it possible to carry
out wireless communication, allowing for easy and effective management of multiple RTR-601 units.
