GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The
HI 96811, HI 96812, HI 96813
and
HI 96814
Digital Wine Refractometers are rugged
portable, water resistant devices that benefit from Hanna’s years of experience as a manufacturer of
analytical instruments. Hanna offers four related wine refractometers to fill the differing requirements
found in the industry. All are equally valid ways to measure the sugar content of grape or must
samples in the field or winery.
The
HI 96811, HI 96812, HI 96813
and
HI 96814
are optical instruments that are based on the
measurement of the refractive index of a solution. The measurement of refractive index is simple
and quick and provides the vintner a standard accepted method for sugar content analysis. Samples
are measured after a simple user calibration with deionized or distilled water. Within seconds the
instrument measures the refractive index of the grape. These digital refractometers eliminate the
uncertainty associated with mechanical refractometers and are easily portable for measurements in
the field.
The four instruments utilize internationally recognized references for unit conversion and temperature
compensation.
