Loyka 45-82 Brix Binocular Handheld Refractometer

Loyka 45-82 Brix Binocular Handheld Refractometer

• The Loyka 45-82 Brix refractometer is a binocular type measuring device capable of measuring Brix in samples between 45% and 82%.

• It is generally used for measuring Brix values of highly concentrated samples. Suitable for measuring fruit concentrates, sugar syrup, jam, etc.

• This refractometer is specifically designed for those who regularly and intensively measure concentrated Brix.

• It does not require any power source and is easy to use.

• Besides boric oil, you can also measure the Brix value of other liquids such as fruit juice and milk.

• Ensure that the prism receives adequate light for easy reading of measurement results.

• Zeroing is done with the calibration fluid provided with the device, and focusing is adjusted through the binoculars.

• It has an ATC (Automatic Temperature Compensation) feature; the compensation range is between 10°C and 20°C.

• The prism should be protected from impacts and scratches; clear results are obtained with a scratch-free prism.

• The prism should be cleaned with a soft cloth after each use.

• Accessories: Calibration fluid, hard carrying case, small screwdriver, plastic dropper, cleaning cloth, and user manual.

Common Sugar (°Bx) Values in Measured Solution:

• A solution weighing 100 grams with a 25°Bx value contains 25 grams of sugar.

• In other words, in a 100-gram solution with 25°Bx, 25 grams are sugar and 75 grams are water.

How to Measure?

• Hold the refractometer in your hand with the inclined prism facing the light where the sample is dropped.

• With the lid closed, bring the binocular section of the device closer to your eye.

• Read the value on the measurement chart.

• If the value is not clear, adjust the focus by turning the adjustment ring on the binoculars.

Setting Zero

• Open the prism lid.

• Drop 1-2 drops of pure water on the inclined prism surface.

• Slowly close the lid; a thin layer of water will form between the prism and the lid.

• Check the dark-light color separation around the zero line on the measurement chart.

• If the separation does not align exactly with the zero line, adjust it by turning the calibration screw with a small screwdriver.
