Description

Refractometers measure the degree at which light bends as it passes through a medium, and is used in a wide range of applications and industries as a quality control & diagnostic tool.  Laxco™ Digital Benchtop incorporates a linear CMOS sensor for high precision readings that are repeatable. The sapphire measuring surface is harder than standard glass, protecting it against scratches, which can cause in accurate readings over time.

The small, light weight footprint makes it both portable and sturdy enough for benchtop use, while its 5-inch LCD displays offers convenient reading.  Each unit is inspected in the United States by a factory qualified technician under a ridged quality control process to insure its accuracy, and performance.

KEY FEATURES:

• Compact, lightweight design for easy portability & benchtop use
• Automatic Temperature Compensation to prevent inaccurate readings due to temperature fulgurations.
• Stainless steel prism well and sapphire measuring surface, equals great protection and easy cleaning
• Easily switch between C°/ F° readings

AUTOMOTIVE MODELS
Engine coolant freeze points and battery fluid levels are one of the most important things when maintaining a proper working vehicle.  This is even more important when in areas of extremely cold temperatures. The Laxco™ Benchtop Digital Automotive Refractometers measures vital coolant freeze point levels of Ethylene and Propylene Glycol based coolants to insure that your engine radiator won’t freeze.
