Brix Refractometer PAL-2: Accurate High-Sugar Measurements
Best for Measuring High-Concentration Sugar Samples
The Brix Refractometer PAL-2 measures sugar content from 45.0% to 93.0%, making it ideal for jam, marmalade, jelly, honey, and concentrated juices. Its precise readings and reliable calibration with just water ensure consistent results, even with hot or thick samples.
Durable and Easy to Clean
With an IP65 water-resistance rating, the PAL-2 can be rinsed directly under running water, allowing safe use with sticky or viscous samples. Its robust design handles repeated measurements without compromising accuracy.
Advanced Features for Convenience
Lightweight and compact, the PAL-2 includes automatic temperature compensation (ATC) and the E.L.I. (External Light Reference) feature for more reliable readings. A convenient storage case adds portability and protection.
Applications
- Jam and marmalade
- Jelly
- Syrup
- Honey
- Concentrated juice
