Each ebro FOM 330 Oil Quality Tester must be adjusted to the specific oil used to ensure accurate measurements. Since each oil has different chemical properties, adjustment with fresh oil is necessary. This is explained on page 31 of the user manual, which is supplied with the Tester. Before the adjusment can get performed, settings of all relevant oil data need to get entered: Quick oil settings


Solution steps:

Preparation

  • Make sure to use new and unused frying oil
  • The oil temperature must be between 150 °C and 190 °C
  • Before adjustment, the FRPC value for the fresh oil must be set correctly. Also other settings need to be adjusted if required (see 'Quick oil settings' on page 28)
  • Perform a test measurement to preheat the sensor and speed up the calibration process
