The new and improved testo 270 is latest generation of our proven range cooking oil testers. Testo’s 270 allows you to determine the quality of cooking oil faster and more reliably than ever before. To do so, it measures the ‘Total Polar Material’ (TPM) content in the oil, which is a sure indicator of its quality. It then gives a percentage and if the oil is aged an increased TPM value will show.
By using improper oil not only will the food produced be of a lower quality, but there are also health risks surrounding cleanliness. This is the reason why the polar materials may not exceed a certain limit, depending on the country. Regular measurement with the testo 270 will help to prevent this.
Cooking oil develops its best potential between 14 and 20% TPM. Using this measurement tool to understand exactly when oil needs replacing also makes sure you aren’t wasting oil. You don’t want to be replacing perfectly good oil by changing too frequently as this will increase oil consumption and ultimately costs.
In addition to the above, the TPM limit values can be individually defined, and can, like other instrument configurations, be protected from inadvertent alteration by a PIN.
Significantly reduces costs
Extensive practical tests by Testo engineers have demonstrated that regular measurement with the testo 270 reduces the consumption of cooking oil by up to 20 %. So if for example if you used 1,000 litres per year and assuming a price of 70p per litre - that makes for a saving of £1,680 a year!
Even more intuitive thanks to traffic-light system
The measuring instrument's 86% larger display considerably simplifies the reading of temperature and TPM values. The traffic-light alarm system provided by multi-colour backlighting makes it even easier to evaluate the quality of the cooking oil:
Green - TPM content is good.
Amber - TPM value will need changing soon.
Red - TPM value has exceeded safe amount.
Safety in daily use
The user is no longer directly exposed to the heat from the deep-fryer when taking the measurement. Thanks to its ergonomic design, the new testo 270 does not require the users hand to get within 25cm of the liquid being measured, thus minimising risk of injury by hot oil.
The strength of the probe shaft has been considerably improved over the previous model. In addition to this, the new cooking oil tester has more robust connections between the housing, the probe shaft and the sensor. Since the measuring instrument fulfils the protection class IP65 even without an additional protective case, cleaning it under running water is no problem - ideal for use in quick-service restaurants.

Step 1: Calibration and Adjustment
do u need to calibrate everytime? before taking reading ? is it recommended. please guide me
Hi, it is recommended to calibrate the instrument once every 2-3 months. I hope this helps
Do you need to calibrate the instrument just after first opening ??
Thank you for your query, it shouldn’t need calibrating straight out of the box, however, when you have started using the unit it’s best to recalibrate on a regular basis, the more it’s recalibrated (depending on the amount of times it’s being used), the more accurate the results will be. Once a week or once a month etc. We hope that helps!
Hi, my reference oil stated on the label is 2.8% TPM, when I calibrate, the result is around 4.5%. The instrument is new. Could you please advise why the deviation the result and the reference is quite far?
Hello, when you get the 4.5% result on the oil tester, you should then adjust the 270 to the % of the reference oil by pressing the arrows on the 270. This link here shows how to calibrate the 270: www.testo.com/en-UK/services/video-trainings-testo-270 Hope that helps!
