The instrument is warranted for one year after the
date of purchase against any manufacturer defect in
materials or workmanship. Since the instrument is a
precise optical instrument, great care must be taken
in the instrument's storage and use. If any
mistreatment or misuse of the instrument is detected,
the warranty will be voided and repair fees will be
charged. Ask your supplier for more details.
The product is in conformity with the requirements of
the EMC Directive 2004/108/EC.
(1) Brix Scale
All Refractometers are designed to measure the Refractive Index of a solution. The Brix scale is based on a
sucrose (sugar) and water solution. However, since most samples contain substances other than sugar - such
as salts, minerals and proteins - the Brix percentage represents the total concentration of all soluble solids in
the sample. For certain samples, such as cutting oils and other industrial fluids, a conversion chart from the Brix
percentage to the sample
'
s total concentration may be necessary.
(2) Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC)
The ATC feature of the instrument displays the measured value of the sample at the standard 20
Υ
(within the
measurement temperature range of 10 to 95
Υ
). As the temperature of a solution changes, so does the
Refractive Index. The ATC feature of the instrument is performed by a temperature sensor which measures the
change in prism temperature and then calculates the actual measured value in relation to the temperature
change. Since the prism temperature is changing, allow time for the temperature of the prism and sample to
equalize for the ATC to work properly.
(1)Store this instrument in a dry and shaded area. A damp storage area may cause the optical system to
malfunction or facilitate the growth of mold. Extended exposure to direct sunlight may cause the casing to warp.
(2)Do not use organic solvents (paint thinner, benzene, gasoline, etc.) on the instrument as they will severely
damage the casing.
(3)After use, clean the prism with water and dry any excess moisture with a clean, dry tissue.
