This unit converts refractive index into TDS (total dissolved solids) for convenient concentration measurements of industrial wash solutions.
The relationship between the concentration of cleaner and its refractive index differs with each type of cleaner.
Therefore, to determine the concentration of each type of cleaner, each solution should have its own custom conversion table to compensate for the
value displayed by instrument.

For a cleaner solution typically used at 5% concentration:
1. Mix 95ml of water and 5ml of undiluted cleaner solution. The concentration of this mixture solution will be 5%.
2.
Measure this mixture. Assume the displayed value on the instrument is 4.00. Convert the displayed value to determine the
conversion factor using the formula: [Conversion Factor = Actual concentration
÷
Displayed value] e.g. 5.00
÷
4.00 = 1.25
3. Once the conversion factor is known (1.25 for this example), measuring solutions with unknown concentration is simple.
Assume the displayed value is 3.00 for a solution with an unknown concentration.
Using the simple formula [Concentration = Displayed value × Conversion Factor] (3.00 × 1.25), the actual concentration of the sample can be
determined. E.g. 3.75

The readings are corrected, based on the temperature of the prism, within the automatic temperature compensation range.
【Caution】 Measurements may fluctuate with hot or cold samples. Wait for approximately 20 seconds to press the START button.
Measurements will stabilize once the instrument acclimates to the sample temperature.
