Recommended uses

Food and beverage applications

• Soft drinks

• Salt water and condiments

• Brines and soups

Industrial applications

• Chemical solutions

Non-recommended uses

High refractive index samples, such as



organic solvents, hydrocarbons, and
petroleum.
Samples that are viscous, oily / fatty,



murky, or high in undissolved solid content.

Capable of measuring liquids with a viscosity of
up to 210 centipoise (cP), which equals to a 67%
Brix sucrose solution at 20°C.

Displayed value

• Metal-working fluids

• Coolants

• Battery fluids

Custom scales are

available upon request.

Example :

• Saline concentration
(specific gravity or degrees Baume)

• Sodium hydroxide concentration

• Ethylene glycol concentration and freeze point

This instrument measures the refractive index
of a liquid and displays the converted value in

“

Brix,” which is a percentage measurement of
sugar in water. The concentration of a
substance other than sugar can be calculated
by creating a conversion table of the desired
concentration % and corresponding Brix %.
