The HI-96813 is used across the wine industry for measuring the concentrations of sugars in wine.
This digital wine refractometer is rugged, lightweight and water resistant for measurements in the lab or field. Measures the refractive index and displays both % brix and potential alcohol in units of % V/V.
Priced inexpensively does not mean a compromise on accuracy, the Hanna refractometer offers all the benefits of high precision digital technology at the same price as a mechanical model.
The HI-96813 allows the user to tailor the instrument to their specific needs based on their experience, since no fixed conversion factor is universally applicable. The first conversion is based on the %Brix value and an adjustable conversion factor between 0.50 and 0.70 (0.55 is a common value).
