A refractometer measures refractive index to determine the concentration of one substance in another. For example, it can confirm the 5% salt (Sodium Chloride) level in water required by most salt spray test standards.
The ACC100 salinity refractometer from Ascott gives a direct reading of Sodium Chloride percentage in the range 0–28%. It includes automatic temperature compensation for accurate results.
Using the refractometer is simple:
-
Place a single drop of the salt solution on the viewing window using the supplied pipette.
-
Read the salinity directly from the high-contrast scale, graduated in % Sodium Chloride.
This quick process delivers a precise reading in seconds.
