Digital Brix+Salinity Refractometers YR05961 // YR05965

Manufacturer: Kalstein

Description

The Digital Brix+Salinity Refractometers YR05961 // YR05965 are top-tier instruments designed for accurately measuring the concentration of soluble solids, primarily sugar content in various aqueous solutions like fruit juices, syrups, and purees. Additionally, these refractometers are ideal for determining the salinity of solutions such as sodium chloride and seawater, as well as calculating the refractive index. Equipped with automatic temperature compensation (ATC), these devices eliminate the need for manual temperature corrections within the range of 0 to 40°C (32-104°F). The standardized Brix and salinity scale ensures precision and ease of reading, while the quick digital display delivers swift and clear Brix and salinity measurements.

Market Price

The Digital Brix+Salinity Refractometers hold a predominant position in the market due to their precision and versatility. While the price can vary based on the retailer and additional features, you can expect to find these premium refractometers within a range of $200 to $600 USD, making them an economically sound choice for professionals seeking reliability and accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q: How much sample is required for testing?
    A: The refractometer requires a minimum sample volume of just 2 metric drops.
  • Q: Is the device waterproof?
    A: Yes, it meets the IP65 standard for water resistance.
  • Q: What is the light source used in the device?
    A: The refractometer uses a yellow LED light source.

Advantages and Disadvantages

Advantages: The refractometers offer precise measurements with a digital display that is easy to read. The automatic temperature compensation feature enhances accuracy significantly. The devices are also robust, featuring a stainless steel ring and flint glass prism in the sample cell. Disadvantages: Users must account for the device’s automatic shutoff after three minutes of inactivity, which may require reactivation during prolonged testing sessions.

Product Use in the Field

The Digital Brix+Salinity Refractometers are widely utilized in food and beverage industries to ensure quality control of products containing sugar, and in aquatic settings for monitoring salinity levels. Simply apply the sample to the prism, and in seconds, receive accurate readings essential for maintaining industry standards.

Recommendations

To maximize the lifespan and performance of your refractometer, regularly clean the sample cell with distilled water after use and ensure it is stored in a dry, safe place. Always use the specified minimum sample volume for the best results. For a detailed quote or to automate the purchasing process, explore the Kalstein Plus platform today!
