A hybrid brix and salt meter born by the fusion of optics and metal.An optical prism is used for the concentration via light refraction, and titatanium for salt concentration via electrical conductivity.
The concept of `anyone`, `anywhere` and `easily` being able to measure has been our standard, but now we have added `for a long time` to our list for the strongest of specifications. Working towards sustainability, the PAL-BX/SALT is made of durable materials designed for long term use without worry.
Yes, I was looking for something like this! Not only providing the means to measure the balance between concentration and salt content in one unit, the decisive factor in taste for all food, with our proprietary algorithm we also took away the stress that comes with dilution.
Costly and hard to dispose of reagents were needed for the titration method. Glass hydrometers needed to be handled carefully in food facilities due to the danger of dropping and shattering glass. Now with the Brix and Salt Meter, you don’t have to worry about reagents or damaged glass!
When using for the first time, a simple programming with 1 undiluted and 2 diluted versions of the sample is needed. After measuring the Brix and salt of the three samples, the user scale is automatically created from those values. From then on, that sample can be dropped on the unit and measured without any dilution!
Since is water resistant (IP65), it can be rinsed under running water after measurement. Highly viscous samples can also be rinsed with water.
This meter can withstand the harsh conditions in the kitchen or on the production line.
Q | Can both the PAL-BX | SALT and PAL-BX | SALT + 5 measure salt content without dilution? |
A | Only the PAL-BX | SALT + 5 has the user scale function to measure salt content without dilution |
Q | How many user scales can be registered on the PAL-BX/SALT +5? |
A | Up to 5 user scales can be registered. |
Q | What is the user scale on the PAL-BX | SALT + 5? |
A | It is function that allows samples with high Brix, like soy sauce, to be measured without dilution. |
Q | What is the heart key? |
A | Press the heart key to display the salt reduction index (salt concentration ÷ Brix). |
Q | Is it possible to measure high temperature samples? |
A | It is equipped with a temperature compensation feature to accurately measure high-temperature samples. |
Q | How should I store the unit? |
A | If the unit will not be used for a while, please store it in the original case it came in. |
