KERN Digital Refractometer - ORM 1SW (Salt) - Refractive index , Brix, Spec.Gravity, Salinity seawater, Chlorine Content Seawater
KERN ORM 1SW
The ORM 1SW is a digital handheld refractometer made for measuring the salt and chlorine content in seawater. It is commonly used in the food industry, aquaculture, and laboratories to monitor salinity levels in fish farms, seawater tanks, and food production. It is simple to use, quick, and requires no maintenance.
This device works with the total reflection measuring method, ensuring precise and stable readings every time. It can display results in several scales, including salinity (‰), specific weight, chlorine content, Brix, or refractive index. This flexibility makes it useful for checking both seawater quality and salt concentrations in food processing.
The large, clear digital display shows both the measured value and the sample temperature. The automatic temperature compensation (ATC) function keeps results accurate even when the sample temperature changes. This removes the need for manual corrections and makes the device efficient in daily use.
Calibration can be done anytime using simple distilled water. The ORM 1SW is built with a strong and durable housing that meets IP65 protection standards. This means it is resistant to dust and water. After each use, you can rinse it under running water without causing any damage.
The refractometer can also perform mean value measurements for higher accuracy. It is compact, light, and comfortable to hold, perfect for field or lab work. The device runs on one AAA battery and is ready to use right out of the box.
The package includes a prism cover, pipette, storage box, AAA battery, and user manual.
