Sper Scientific 300014 Battery Coolant Refractometer

Features. Battery Coolant Refractometer m easures the freezing point of automotive coolants in their current concentration as well as battery charge. Both ethylene glycol and propylene glycol antifreezes can be measured on separate scales. Battery charge is measured on a third scale using just a few drops of battery electrolyte solution (battery acid). The specific gravity of the battery acid is displayed together with a reading of RECHARGE FAIR or GOOD. Place a drop or two of a sample on the prism and read the results. Sper Scientific portable refractometers work in ambient light with no battery or other power source necessary. A refractometer measures the extent to which light is bent (refracted) through a liquid sample. They are commonly used to help identify or confirm the identity of a sample assess the purity of a sample or determine the concentration of a solute in a solution. They can be used in labs on production lines in the field or anywhere. Simply place a drop or two of a sample on the prism and read the results immediately. With reasonable care their reliability precision and optical performance will last forever.
