Chemical Analyses on Palm Oil with CDR Palm Oil Tester
CDR PalmOilTester is the analysis system for crude and refined palm oil, ideal to perform quality and process control tests in all production stages and at plant on in chemistry laboratories of food industry.
CDR PalmOilTester can determine:
- Free Fatty Acids (FFA) in 1 minute
- Peroxides in 4 minutes
- DOBI & Carotene in 6 minutes
- Iodine value in 2 minutes
- p-Anisidine Value in 2 minutes
Thanks to its ease of use and reliability, CDR PalmOilTester is employed by palm oil producers in Asia, Africa and South America during all production stages.
Furthermore, CDR PalmOilTester is used in testing laboratories or directly on production lines in many food industries worldwide that use palm oil as a cooking oil and shortening or in the manufacture of margarine, non-dairy creamers and ice cream and so on.
It offers an analytical method that combines reliability of results with a simple and rapid use.
What is the CDR PailmOilTester System?
CDR PalmOilTester is a self-contained apparatus complete with everything needed to perform accurate chemical analyses on palm oil, at the mill, at the refinery plant, or at any stage of the production line.

Save your time
CDR PalmOilTester can determine several parameters in palm oil, either crude or refined, relying on analytical procedures and dedicated reagents specifically developed by the research laboratories of CDR that allow:
- a sample preparation that is quick and easy
- making analytical procedures extremely fast and easy
- removing all needs for complex calibration procedures.
Moreover, CDR PalmOilTester allows accelerating analytical procedures for crude and refined palm oil quality control because it features:
- thermostated incubation cells
- multitasking mode
These features allow performing several analyses at the same time on the same sample or sixteen different assays for the same parameter on a batch of different samples.
CDR PalmOilTester can be used to test crude, refined, and Kernel Palm Oil to determine:
