MEASUREMENT TOOLS - Refractometer
FGS Automatic Temperature
Compensating Refractometer
Refractometers are used
the world over to help monitor and control sugar concentrations in foods
and beverages. Whether users are checking the "ripeness" of
fruit in the field, verifying product quality after harvesting, or controlling
concentrations during processing and packaging, refractometers provide
critical information to ensure product quality.
ATC refractometers
automatically compensate for temperature changes so the user can just
drop a few drops of a juice and read. Easy to use, just place a few drops
of juice on the prism glass and hold up to the light.
By using the refractometer
the grower will know on a daily basis what is the best days, rows, trees
to harvest based upon their sugar content. The increased profits from
the higher sugar content of the harvest will more than pay for this measuring
instrument. Two models to choose from.
