Refractometer Auto (EG/PG/CW/BF) with "ATC" ECONOMY Model

A refractometer is an optical measuring device used to measure the refractive index of various liquids. There are different types of refractometers, some of which are stationery and others handheld. However, they all work on the same principle of the refractive index of light.

With a refractometer you can measure the sugar content of fruit and malt, the water content of honey, the ability of antifreeze to keep liquids frost-free, the density of urine or the acid content of a battery. Likewise, a refractometer can measure saline solutions in seawater and the alcohol content of clear spirits or the alcohol solution in ex. IPA alcohol in geothermal heating systems.

This is the ECONOMY model of our best-seller art. 15305120! This refractometer is used to determine the freezing point of either ethylene (EG) or propylene (PG) glycol-based cooling systems. It can also be used to test the concentration of etylene glycol or propylene glycol in antifreeze liquids. It also has an additional scale for the measuring of the density ofbattery fluid (BF) and the freezing point of cleaning fluid (CF).

The refractometer is equipped with Automatic Temperatue Compensation (ATC) that automatically correct temperature discrepancies during use.

The refractometer has the following specifications:

• Measuring Range: EG: -50°C - 0°C / PG: -50°C - 0°C /CF: -40°C - 0°C / BF:1,100-1,400 sg
• Resolution:5°C /5°C /5°C / 0,01 sg
• Accuracy: ±5°C /±5°C /±5°C / ±0,01 sg
• With Built-in Automatic Temperature Compensation(ATC)
• Size: (Length x Ø dia.): 155 x Ø40 mm
• Weight: 175 gram
• Material: Aluminium combined with plastic parts

Main areas of application:

• Automotive industry
