AFAB - Hand Refractometer

hr brixBrix scale hand refractometers are developed for sugar-related liquids such as fruit juices, honey, soft drinks, and wines. These units are used to help monitor and control the sugar concentrations of products in the food and beverage industry. Whether checking the “ripeness” of fruit in the field, verifying product quality after the harvest, or controlling concentrations during processing and packaging, refractometers provide critical information to ensure product quality. Full ranges of measurement are available.
Brix scale hand refractometers are also commonly used for controlling the ratio and concentration of various industrial fluids (water-miscible cutting fluids and industrial lubricants, etc.). They are developed to assist machine operators in maintaining the delicate water/coolant balance. Proper coolant mixtures reduce waste and tool-wear while increasing feed and speed rates, improving the efficiency of machining equipment. Models HR-010 through HR-055 are suitable for most machining applications.

Salinity Refractometers
Hr salinityThe Salinity Refractometers are designed to test the concentration of salt water or brine. The triple scale on these units provides a direct reading of the specific gravity and concentration of salt in water (parts per thousand). These units provide a reliable refractive index and salinity reading of totally dissolved solids of aqueous solutions. They are used for quality control in research and clinical laboratories. They can be used to check and maintain stock solutions and dilutions. In the food industry, they are effective in the preparation of frozen vegetables, fruits, seafood and ocean by-byproducts. The Salinity models can also be used for determining soil quality, and in oceanography and seawater studies.
