Salinity Refractometer THE01502 | 0-100 ppt | 1.000-1.070 SG | ATC

This handheld salinity refractometer shows dissolved salt on two scales at once: parts per thousand up to 100 ppt, and specific gravity from 1.000 to 1.070. That lets you check seawater strength without changing units. It has automatic temperature compensation, an aluminium body and a manual focus eyepiece, and it works from ambient light only, so there is no battery or power supply to look after. Features and benefits: - Two scales in one view: salt in ppt up to 100 and specific gravity from 1.000 to 1.070, with divisions of 1 ppt and 0.001 SG - ATC marking on the body: automatic temperature compensation, with the salinity scale referenced at 20°C - Stated accuracy of ±1 ppt or 0.001 SG (±0.10%): enough resolution for checking mixed seawater and brine - Metal adjustment knob and correction screw: set the scale to zero with 2 to 3 drops of water on the prism - Adjustable focus hand wheel: a sharp scale line for different eyes - Soft non-slip silicone handle and soft rubber eye piece: comfortable to hold and look through - Aluminium body, listed by the seller as non-corrosive and light enough to carry in a tool bag or kit box Applications: - Mixing and topping up aquarium seawater - Checking sea salt solutions and brines in workshops, schools and labs - Teaching refraction and dissolved solids measurement - Quick salt strength checks in food preparation and brewing In the box: The instrument comes with a pipette, a screwdriver for setting the zero, a cleaning cloth and a printed manual in six languages: English, Russian, Spanish, German, Japanese and Korean. Choose the carton box, plastic box or leather box in the options. Note: Set the zero on water before each session, then place a few drops of the sample on the prism, close the cover and read the scale against the light. Wipe the prism clean after every use. The listing also shows a Brix scale image, but this unit is sold for salinity use.
