Digital Refractometer OPTIKA HRD-400 0-28% for salinity

The refractometers are optical devices that through the analysis of the alteration of the light, when it crosses the sample placed in the refractometer, we can obtain very useful information of the studied sample. Depending on the scale and its design, a refractometer will allow us to obtain the sugar cocentration in Brix degrees, the refractive index, the Baume degrees or the salinity level, etcetera.

Depending on the type of sample, fruits, honey, wine, urine, salt, grapes... we will need one refractometer or another, where the measuring range and the scale with which the measurement is intended to be made is especially important. Nowadays, the professional sector must meet demanding quality requirements, so refractometers are an indispensable element in any quality laboratory. If you have any doubts about which refractometer will be the most suitable for your function, do not hesitate to contact our experts at Microscopiomania.com

DIGITAL refractometers, unlike handheld or portable refractometers, give us the reading value directly on the screen. We can select the scale we want and the digital refractometer will give us the value read objectively. In handheld refractometers, the reading is made by the user looking at the scale, so there can always be some subjective error. With digital refractometers human error is eliminated.

The digital refractometer OPTIKA HDR-400 has the following technical characteristics:

* Measurement Range: 0-28% BRIX.
* Resolution: 0.1% BRIX.
* With ATC (Automatic Temperature Compensation) in a range of: 0-40ºC
* Temperature measurement accuracy: 1ºC
* Temperature Resolution: 0.1º C
* Temperature during operation: 0-35ºC
* Storage temperature: 0-50ºC
* Dimensions and weight: 185x59x45mm; 230gr.
* Power supply: 1 battery 9V
* Low battery alarm system.

Refractometers without ATC offer a reading value assuming that the laboratory temperature is the standard 20ºC. If we have a refractometer with ATC the sugar concentration value reading will be 100% reliable even if the laboratory temperature is not 20ºC but is in the range between 0 and 40ºC.
