Handheld Refractive Index Refractometer 43053

This handheld refractive index refractometer is exceptionally simply to operate and provides quick, accurate measurements for the concentration of nearly any aqueous solution. 

Easy to use: Operation consists of placing 1 or 2 drops of sample on the prism, closing the daylight plate over the sample, then looking through the focusable, cushioned rubber eyepiece for the readings.

Accurate: Featuring the largest, easiest to read scale available with clear, sharp figures, screen shading and incredible contrast. These features significantly enhance overall accuracy, even when several different operators use the instrument. Features rubber grips on the body, which block the transmission of hand heat to reduce temperature errors. 

Compact & Portable: The small size allows the handheld refractive index refractometer to be used anywhere...the field, plant or lab.

Tool Free Calibration: The patented "Zero Ring" eliminates the hassle of using a separate tool for calibration. Simply place a few drops of distilled water or liquid standard (R.I. oil or prepared sucrose solution) on the prism, turn the built-in "Zero Ring" until the shadowline is at the correct value of the liquid, and secure the set screw. That's it!

Durable: The handheld refractive index refractometer features rugged construction to provide years of reliable use. The prism is mounted in an all metal housing which allows the sample and prism to reach temperature equilibrium quickly. Also features non-roll stands to ensure that once the unit is placed on a table or bench top, it wont be prone to roll off the surface.
