Refractometer; Atago hand-held “Pen-Pro”
Atago has just created a new series of refractometers that can be dipped into the the testing medium and then simply rinsed with water afterwards. With the Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC) the pen will enable you to take accurate measurment readings regardless of the ambient temperature. They say that now operators can have a “Continuous Measurement” feature to expand current measuring methods.
The Brix range is 0.0 to 85.0% with an accuracy of Brix± 0.2%.
Atago is marketing this device towards those that work with samples that require continuous testing where the operator can move from one sample to the next very quickly.
We are preparing to do some real world testing and will post the results and the video here, so please stay tuned if you are interested.
