Optical refractometer MR200ATC

For wine, honey, fruit juices and alcohol Refractometers are precise optical instruments for measuring dissolved materials in water-based solutions. Their functionality is based on the principle of varying optical refraction in liquids: light travels through a liquid and the angle of refraction is measured against a scale. This indicates the quantity of dissolved solids in the liquid. It's easy to use: simply apply one drop of the sample liquid on the prism and then read the results right away on the scale. The device is very easy to calibrate. The visual focus is adjustable. The refractometer (ATC) is temperature compensated at 20 °C. The MR200ATC is used to determine the must or sugar content in the fruit and wine-making industries. It can also be used to determine the degree of ripening for fruits such as tomatoes, melons or kiwis. The MR90ATC can be used to determine the water and sugar content in honey. The model MRHW25ATC can be used for measuring alcohol; the expected alcohol content can be estimated.
