Robust, IP65, all-metal, professional grade handheld refractometer. Professional grade Brix optical handheld refractometer with clear field of view and large rubber handgrip for easy measurement in harsh environments. Typically used by entomologists or zoologists, this especially adapted optical handheld refractometer fitted with a 45-80 Brix scale is often taken in to the field to measure nectar in flowers as part of deforestation studies as a sample volume of only 1 micro-litre is required to take a measurement. IP65 rated against moisture ingress. The low volume performance of this modified Eclipse refractometer is achieved by using a special prism flap which has a precision machined face enabling extremely close contact with the prism and hence a very thin film of sample.
