Refractometer for measuring operating fluids

A refractometer is a device that allows determination of the physical properties of a liquid by measuring the refractive index at the interface of the medium. With the refractometer it is possible to determine the battery charge level, the freezing point of coolants based on propylene glycol or ethylene glycol, and also the freezing point of windshield washer fluids. The product is supplied complete and requires no further assembly.

Main advantages:
  • Compact device size
  • The device requires no battery and needs no assembly
  • High operational reliability and long service life
  • Small deviation and high measurement accuracy
  • The body of the device is made of a lightweight and durable special aluminum alloy
  • Requires practically no maintenance
  • Part of the device is fitted with a soft rubber cover
Measurement capabilities:
  • Battery charge level
  • Freezing point of coolant
  • Freezing point of washer fluid
  • The set includes a pipette and a cleaning cloth
Measuring procedure:
  • 1. Use the pipette to take a small sample of the liquid.
  • 2. Lift the cover plate and apply 2–3 drops of the liquid onto the instrument prism.
  • 3. Close the cover plate so that the measured liquid spreads evenly and without bubbles over the prism surface.
  • 4. After 30 seconds, point the cover plate toward a light source and look through the eyepiece.
  • 5. Focus the image using the focusing ring and read the position of the light/dark boundary on the appropriate scale that indicates the properties of the liquid.
Package contents:
  • 1 pcs refractometer for measuring automotive operating fluids
  • 1 pcs practical and mechanically durable plastic case
  • 1 pcs pipette for sampling
  • 1 pcs screwdriver for instrument calibration
  • 1 pcs antistatic cleaning cloth for the optical prism
Note: The special calibration solution is not included!
Technical specifications:
  • Freezing point of ethylene glycol-based coolant - range: -50 – 0 °C, accuracy: +/- 5 °C
  • Freezing point of propylene glycol-based coolant - range: -50 – 0 °C, accuracy: +/- 5 °C
  • Battery electrolyte density - range: 1.10 - 1.40 g/cm3, accuracy: +/- 0.01 g/cm3
  • Freezing point of anti-freeze washer fluid - range: -40 – 10 °C, accuracy: +/- 5 °C
