Description

This optical refractometer (brix meter) is equipped with a Brix scale in range from 0 to 5 °Bx (% mas sucrose). The measurement precision is ±0.1 °Bx.

It is suitable for measuring of sucrose solution of very low concentrations.

Scale range Resolution
0 to 5 °Bx 0.1 °Bx

Example: if you measure value 25 °Bx it means that in the 100 g of aqueous solution is dissolved 25 g of sucrose. In other words, in 100 g of aqueous sucrose solution is 25 g of sucrose and 75 g of water. That is why is sometimes used the percent sign (%) as a unit because the sucrose content is a sucrose percentage by weight.

Tip: use our calculator for calculation of sugar content in aqueous solution

The measurement

The juice measuring is very easy. Place a few drops of measured liquid onto the prism, press slightly the cover plate to eliminate possible bubbles as well as air and the light/blue boundary will show you the result value.
