The CombiFoss 7 seamlessly integrates MilkoScan 7 RM and Fossomatic 7 to test raw milk for up to 18 parameters, handling up to 600 samples per hour.
18 parameters from a single sample in six seconds
CombiFoss 7 has a wide range of parameters including advanced tests like ketosis screening and untargeted raw milk (adulteration) screen-ing to help your customers meet modern challenges such as dairy herd productivity, feeding efficiency and protection of the milk supply.
More results at less cost with new technology
The latest in flow system technology including a diamond cuvette technology ensures maximum uptime. The cuvette element is backed by a 10 year guarantee and you can trust in the reliability of results, whether running at 100 or 600 samples per hour.
Optimise instrument management with FOSS digital services
Ensure consistent performance of all instruments in your network and avoid downtime by making upgrades and adjustments while instruments continue to run. Protect your database and calibration models with automatic back up of data.

Specifications for MilkoScanTM 7 RM
Most of the calibrations are using multiple wavelengths selected freely from the entire Mid-IR spectrum in order to optimise robustness and accuracy. Compared to traditional filter calibrations, they are called full spectrum calibrations.
