SGX-1 Beer Wort Brix Refractometer

Features:Large, Sharp Display Scales with high contrastHigh-quality optical glass material for consistent, accurate readingsDurable, industrial-grade design with non-roll stand feature to keep unit secure on flat surfacesTactical, non-slip Rubber Grip on body to block transmission of hand heat reducing temperature effectsPrism encased in all-metal housing allowing sample and prism to reach temperature equilibrium quicklyThe Beer Wort Brix Refractometer features two scales - Brix and Beer Wort Specific Gravity. It is simple to operate and provides quick, accurate measurements for Specific Gravity of beer wort.Operation consists of placing 1 or 2 drops of sample on the prism, closing the daylight plate over the sample, then looking through the focusable, cushioned-rubber eyepiece for the readings.Easy to calibrate, simply place a few drops of distilled water or liquid standard (R.I. oil or prepared sucrose solution) on the prism, turn the built-in "Zero-Ring" until the shadowline is at the correct value of the liquid, and secure the ring. Models with ATC need to be calibrated in a controlled environment due to the built-in temperature element.
