In-process refractometers are used for continuous process monitoring and data readouts, and are generally fitted into a piping system for ongoing analysis. Refractometers can work with natural light, or with an external power source such as batteries or electricity. Rectangular palm-sized shape (109 x 55 x 31mm), with prism housed in circular sample well. Digital-display refractometers are used exclusively for liquids. A specific gravity refractometer measures the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance, usually water for liquids, and displays the results. Benchtop refractometers typically measure with a higher degree of accuracy than handheld units. This refractometer is housed in an ABS resin body for use with urine samples. Handheld pocket refractometer for measurement of urine specific gravity (SG) 1.000 to 1.060 with a temperature range between 10.0 to 35.0 degrees C Honey Refractometer For Honey Moisture Atago Malaysia PAL-10S Pocket Urine Specific Gravity Refractometer Coolant Refractometer The PAL-10S is a digital hand-held compact refractometer to measure urine S.G. To operate it - simply place a drop of urine on the prism top and press the Start key. Then - the urine S.G... Extremely water resistant (IP65) The company, founded in 1940 and headquartered in Tokyo, offers products that comply with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP), Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), and Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) system standards, and many International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards. The unit displays both urine SG and temperature within three seconds, and comes with a protective plastic storage case with a foam cut-out insert to cushion the instrument. Some analog-display refractometers can be used for both solids and liquids. Gordini AquaBloc Mittens - Men's | Co-op Refractometers are used to determine substance content in a sample, to provide unit readings of substances including Brix, salinity, and alcohol; to detect chemical impurities, or to measure components of samples such as industrial fluid. LED-illuminated digital display, with an external light interference (ELI) feature to alert of outside light interference Pocket Refractometer | CO.,LTD ELI alerts the user that there is too much light, such as direct sunlight, penetrating through the prism. manufactures analytical instruments such as refractometers, polarimeters, and saccharimeters, as well as a variety of meters. They typically have either a digital or analog reading display, though some units utilize both types. The unit is factory-calibrated (calibration certificate not included) and can be calibrated with tap water. Refractometers measure the refractive index of a substance, which is its optical characteristic, and the number of dissolved particles in it. Refractometers are used in a wide variety of applications in the culinary, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, educational, geological, chemical, ecological, and automotive industries, and for water-testing applications. Atago Co., Ltd. The LED-illuminated digital display with ELI technology helps provide accurate measurement near windows or outdoors. Digital handheld models provide a digital readout. The refractive index is the ratio of the speed of light in empty space to the speed of light in a substance; when light passes from one medium to another.
