Refractometer for Food Industry Salt Measurements-1

salt • salt • salt • salt Refractometer for measuring salt Food Catering and Manufacturing The Hanna Salt Refractometer is portable, lightweight and easy to use as well as being precise and accurate. What’s more it offers all the benefits of a digital meter at the cost of little more than a mechanical model. Large dual level LCD displays measurement and temperature simultaneously Designed for use in the food industry, the Hanna Salt Refractometer is ideal for drop sampling and for testing the salt content of solutions used in food preparation. Using the measurement of the refractive index to determine the salt content, readings are quick and simple. Samples are measured after simple user calibration with distilled or deionised water. Within seconds the refractive index of the solution is measured with speed and precision. Large clear buttons make this meter easy to use in laboratory and test conditions White waterproof casing with stainless steel well is easy to keep clean Specifications Product Code Specific Gravity Specific Gravity Specific Gravity Main benefits Automatic Temperature Compensation Measurement Time Minimum Sample Volume 100 µL (to cover prism totally) Light Source Sample Cell Stainless steel ring and flint glass prism Case Material Enclosure Rating Battery Type / Life Sample well is designed for easy measurement – simply place a few drops of the sample in the well and press the READ key drop sampling – great for small quantities After 3 minutes of non-use 1.5 second measurement time 0.1 resolution with 0.2% accuracy Automatic temperature compensation Zero using distilled or de-ionised water Battery operated with automatic shut-off after 3 minutes of non-use Battery error prevention system samples can be as small as 2 metric drops Supplied with 9v battery Simple operation: smart results 1.
