Measure the level of sugar within different solution types with this portable refractometer.
Ideal for measuring sucrose content within fruit juice and industrial fluids, the RF11 accurately determines overall brix content from 0 to 10% and ensures all measurements are as accurate as possible thanks to built-in automatic temperature compensation (ATC).
The device works by inserting two or three drops of solution (or more) into the refractometer. The user then views the solution through a built-in eye piece, adjusts the focus of the prism and lens as is necessary and reads sucrose content against a scale that's built inside the refractometer for quick and easy reference.
Extech stock a wide range of different refractometers for different purposes, so be sure to take a look at this comparison chart so you know exactly which model is right for your needs.
