Hanna Instruments-96831 Digital Refractometer for Ethylene Glycol Analysis
The Hanna Instruments-96831 Ethylene Glycol Digital Refractometer is a rugged, portable, water resistant device that utilises the measurement of refractive index to determine the percentage volume and freezing point of ethylene glycol based solutions.
This digital refractometer eliminates the uncertainty associated with mechanical refractometers. Hanna Instruments-96831 samples are measured after a simple user calibration with distilled or deionised water.
Within seconds, the refractive index and temperature are measured and converted into one of two measurement units; % volume or freezing point.
This meter uses internationally recognised references for unit conversion and temperature compensation for glycol solutions.
Key features
- Dual-level LCD displays measurement and temperature readings simultaneously
- Automatic Temperature Compensation for accurate measurements
- Easy measurement; place a few drops of the sample in the well and press the READ key
- BEPS (Battery Error Prevention System) alerts the user in the event that low battery power could adversely affect readings.
