Hanna Digital Refractometer for Measuring Sodium Chloride in Food - HI96821

The HI96821 is a rugged and portable digital refractometer designed for sodium chloride (NaCl) measurement. It displays NaCl concentration in four different units: g/100 g, g/100 mL, specific gravity, and °Baume. The instrument offers high accuracy and simple operation, ensuring reliable results every time. All readings are automatically temperature compensated and displayed within a fast response time of 1.5 seconds. The sealed flint glass prism and stainless steel sample well are easy to clean, requiring only a soft cloth before the next use.

Hanna HI96821 Digital Refractometer is engineered for precise sodium chloride concentration measurement in food products, making it suitable for laboratory, industrial, and quality control applications. It delivers consistent and repeatable results across multiple measurement scales, supporting diverse analytical requirements.

The device measures NaCl using g/100 g, g/100 mL, specific gravity, and °Baume scales, ensuring flexibility in analysis. It features automatic temperature compensation from 0°C to 40°C, providing accurate readings under varying conditions. With a fast response time of approximately 1.5 seconds, it supports efficient workflows in testing environments.

The instrument requires a minimal sample volume of approximately 100 µL and includes a sealed stainless steel sample well with a high-grade flint glass prism for durability, easy cleaning, and reduced contamination risk. It offers accuracy of ±0.2 g/100 g, ±0.2 g/100 mL, ±0.2 °Baume, and ±0.002 specific gravity, with appropriate resolution for precise measurements.

Powered by a 9V battery, it can deliver up to 5000 readings and includes an automatic shut-off function after three minutes of inactivity to conserve battery life. Its compact size of 192 x 102 x 67 mm and weight of 420 g make it suitable for both field and laboratory use.

This refractometer is widely used in food processing laboratories, manufacturing quality control, and industrial environments where accurate salt content measurement is essential. Explore laboratory testing instruments and Refractometers for precise and efficient measurement solutions.
