Atago® RX-α series are high accuracy, automatic, digital refractometers with thermostatically controlled sample chamber.
- Choice of % sugar (Brix) or Refractive index (R.I.) ranges
- Adjustable thermostatic control of sample chamber temperature with built-in, heating and cooling, incorporating a Peltier thermo-module
- Manual calibration facility allows compensation to known standards or other control instruments
- 30-reading memory and 30 custom user scales memorised (with optional unit display: %, g/100g, g/100ml, mol/l, %mas, % vol, none)
