Refractive index measurement for laboratories and the industry

DESCRIPTION

• The models in the KERN ORA-B range are universal, maintenance-free analogue manual refractometers
• The handy and robust design allows the easy, efficient and sustainable use in everyday life
• Manually calculated conversions and errors of the user are avoided by multiple selectable scales.
• These scales are especailly developed, exactly calculated and checked. They are also characterized by their thin and clear lines.
• The optical system and the prism cover are made of special material which allows a low-tolerance measuring.
• All models are fitted with an eyepiece which can be adjusted easily and smoothly to different visual capacities
• The temperature compensation ("ATC") enables accurate measurement at different ambient temperatures (10 °C to 30 °C)
• Included with the delivery:
  - Storage box
  - Calibration solution
  - Calibration block if necessary
  - Pipette
  - Screwdriver
  - Cleaning cloth
• Further accessories are available optionally.
• The following models are particularly suitable for the measurement of the “BRIX” value. They are used to determine the sugar content in food, especially in fruit, vegetables, juice and soft drinks. In the same ideal way these refractometers serve for monitoring processes in the industry (coolant monitoring, oils, water-based mixtures).

The following models are particularly suitable for the measurement of the “BRIX” value, as well as the water content in honey and “degrees Baumé” to determine the relative density of liquids.
The main scope of applications is: · Industry: Monitoring of lubricants for process and quality control · Food industry: Beverages, fruits and sweets · Agriculture: Determination of the degree of ripeness of fruits for quality control in harvesting · Restaurants and large-scale catering establishment.
