The HI 96801 Digital Refractometer is a rugged portable, water resistant refractometer that employs the measurement of refractive index to display the brix content of samples. The measurement of refractive index is simple and quick. Samples are measured after a simple user calibration with deionized or distilled water. Within seconds the instrument measures the refractive index of the sample and converts it to % Brix concentration units. The HI 96801 digital refractometer eliminates the uncertainty associated with mechanical refractometers that may not have a sharp enough line to read properly.

The measurement technique and temperature compensation employ the methodology in the ICUMSA Methods Book (International Commission for Uniform Methods of Sugar Analysis). Temperature (in °C or °F) is displayed simultaneously with measurement on the large, dual level display along with other helpful message codes.
