Product Details
RS PRO Mix Cutting Fluids Refractometer
An ideal measurement tool which provides quick analysis of water concentration mixes. This refractometer enables easy and accurate dilution control with a prism screen which possesses a much greater refractive index than the sample solution to be measured.
Features and Benefits:
• Simple to use and re-calibrate
• Ergonomic design with rubber grip
• Calibration adjustment screw
• Quick and accurate measurement
• Easy and accurate dilution control
• 0 -18% Brix scale range
• ±0.1 % accuracy
Accessories include a plastic specimen dropper, calibration adjustment tool and a fitted instrument case.
How does a refractometer work?
Refractometers are instruments used in measuring the index of refraction in liquid, gas and translucent solids. They usually have a prism screen and eye piece with a Brix scale, 2-3 drops of a solution to be measured are added to the prism, the refractometer is then pointed in the direction of a light source. The prism possesses a greater refractive index than the sample solution to be measured. In a weak sample the difference between the refractive index of the solution and the prism is great, therefore the angle of refraction is large on the scale. In a strong sample the opposite is shown, so a smaller angle of refraction on the scale. The prism and sample must both be at the same temperature to ensure accurate results.
