The F-750 NIR Handheld Produce Quality Meter enables producers to track fruit ripeness at every stage of development. Felix Instruments

Felix Instruments has introduced a hand-held meter for instantly and non-destructively measuring sugar content, color, and maturity of fruit. The F-750 NIR Handheld Produce Quality Meter enables producers to track fruit ripeness at every stage of development and from harvest through the sale of the produce. The instrument, which weighs one kilo (2.2 pounds), employs the same near-infrared technology used to measure fruit quality in packing houses.
