Atago Brix meter and pocket salinity meter

First Hybrid Brix and Salt Meter

Ideal for Food Processing, Quality Control, and Recipe Standardization

Hybrid Brix and Salt Meter PAL-BX|SALT The PAL-BX|SALT is the world’s first hybrid instrument combining a digital refractometer and a salt meter in one compact unit. It allows users to measure both Brix (sugar concentration) and salt content quickly and accurately using two different measurement technologies in a single device.

Dual Measurement Technology

It features an optical prism to determine Brix values through refractive index measurement, while a durable titanium electrode is used to measure salt concentration. This dual-sensor design enables reliable testing of products where both sugar and salt levels are critical to taste, safety, and consistency.

Improved Accuracy with Offset Function

In addition, it is equipped with an offset function that allows users to align results with other measurement methods. This makes it easier to standardize readings across different instruments and production lines, helping ensure consistent quality control. The PAL-BX|SALT is especially well suited for food manufacturers, commercial kitchens, sauce and condiment producers, soup manufacturers, and R&D laboratories. Users value its convenience, time-saving operation, and the ability to perform two essential measurements with one portable device instead of purchasing separate meters.

Q&A

What is the PAL-BX|SALT used for?

The PAL-BX|SALT is used to measure both Brix (sugar content) and salt concentration in food products, making it ideal for quality control, recipe development, and production monitoring.

How does the PAL-BX|SALT measure Brix and salt?

It uses an optical prism to measure Brix via refractive index and a titanium electrode to measure salt concentration, combining two proven technologies in one device.

Why choose a hybrid Brix and salt meter instead of two separate instruments?

A hybrid meter saves time, reduces equipment costs, and simplifies workflow by allowing users to perform both measurements with one compact, portable device.

What industries benefit most from this hybrid meter?

Food processing, beverage production, sauce and seasoning manufacturing, commercial kitchens, and food research laboratories benefit most from the ability to quickly verify both sugar and salt levels.
