KERN Digital Refractometer - ORM 50BM (Food) - Refractive index, Brix.
KERN ORM 50BM
The ORM 50BM is a small digital refractometer made for quick and easy measurement of liquids. It helps you find the sugar content or refractive index of a sample in seconds. It is mainly used in food production, industry, and laboratories for simple daily checks.
The refractometer uses a total reflection measuring method for accurate readings. It can show results in either Brix or refractive index, depending on what you need. This makes it useful for checking the sugar level in drinks, fruits, and sweets or for monitoring coolants and other water-based mixtures in industry.
The large digital display is clear and easy to read. It also shows the temperature of the sample. The built in automatic temperature compensation (ATC) ensures you always get a correct result, without having to calculate by hand.
Calibration is fast and simple. You can do it anytime using normal distilled water. The device is built to last, with a strong housing protected against dust and splashes according to IP65. After use, you can rinse it under running water without damage.
The KERN ORM 50BM is small, light, and easy to hold. It runs on one AAA battery and is ready to use anywhere. Mean value measurement is possible when you need a more stable result.
The package includes a prism cover, pipette, storage box, AAA battery, and user instructions.
