Product Overview
C&A Scientific - RHC-200-ATC - Refractometer
The C&A Scientific RHC-200-ATC Refractometer is a precision optical instrument designed for measuring the refractive index of liquids. It is commonly used in laboratories, food and beverage industries, and agricultural applications to determine the concentration of solutions such as sugar content (Brix), salinity, or other dissolved solids.
Features:
- Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC) ensures accurate readings between 10°C and 30°C.
- Dual scale displays Brix (0-32%) and specific gravity (1.000-1.120).
- High-quality optics provide clear and sharp readings.
- Durable aluminum body with a rubber grip for easy handling.
- Calibration screw for quick adjustments.
- Includes a pipette and a mini screwdriver for maintenance.
Specifications:
- Measurement Range: 0-32% Brix / 1.000-1.120 SG
- Resolution: 0.2% Brix / 0.001 SG
- Accuracy: ±0.2% Brix
- ATC Range: 10°C to 30°C
- Dimensions: 6.3 x 3.1 x 1.6 inches
- Weight: 8.8 ounces
Use Suggestion:
This refractometer is ideal for testing the sugar content in fruits, juices, or honey. Simply place a few drops of the sample on the prism, close the daylight plate, and view the scale through the eyepiece. Ensure the instrument is calibrated with distilled water before each use for optimal accuracy.
