Milwaukee MA 871 - Refractometer

Product detailed description

Refractometers use the refractive index of light to measure the properties of a solution. Hobby growers, farmers and beer brewers use them to measure the weight percentage of sugar in a water solution. The Milwaukee MA871 is easy and quick to use.

First, the device is calibrated using distilled or deionized water. It measures the refractive index of the light passing through the liquid and converts it into % of sugar in seconds. 

The digital device is more precise than mechanical refractometers, portable and quick.

Milwaukee MA871 displays the weight percentage of sugar in the measured sample and current temperature (° C /° F) on a clear LCD screen. 

Features:

• Clear LCD screen
• Easy settings
• Battery operated
• Easy measurement with just 2-3 drops of sample needed and results within less than 2 seconds.
• Battery level indicator with automatic shut-off (batteries included).
