Product Overview
The following models are particularly suitable for the measurement of the “BRIX” value. They are used to determine the sugar content in food, especially in fruit, vegetables, juice and sweet or soft drinks. In the same ideal way, these refractometers serve in monitoring processes in the industry (coolant monitoring, oils, lubricants and fats). Alternativly, the dispaly can be switched to show the refractive index. The following models are particularly suitable for the measurement of the “BRIX” value, the water content in honey according to the International Honey Commission (IHC2002) and “degrees Baumé” to determine the relative density of liquids. Alternatively the display can be switched to show the refractive index.
The main scope of applications is:
· Industry: Monitoring of lubricants in machines and quality control
· Food industry: Beverages, fruits and sweets
· Agriculture: Determination of the degree of ripeness of fruit for quality control in harvesting
· Restaurants and large-scale catering establishment
