KERN Analogue Refractometer ORA-B (Sugar)
Application sugar

  • The models of the ORA-B series are universal, maintenance-free analogue hand refractometers.
  • The handy and robust design allows easy, efficient and durable use in everyday life
  • The manual conversion effort is avoided by several selectable scales and excludes application errors
  • These scales are specially developed, precisely calculated and checked. They are also characterised by very thin and clear lines
  • The optical system and the prism cover are made of special materials that allow low-tolerance measuring
  • All models are equipped with an eyepiece that can be easily and smoothly adjusted to different visual acuities.
  • The models marked with ''ATC'' have an automatic temperature compensation, which enables exact measurements at different ambient temperatures.
  • All models are equipped with an eyepiece that can be easily and smoothly adjusted to different visual acuities:
    • Storage box
    • Calibration solution
    • Calibration block, if necessary
    • Pipette
    • Screwdriver
    • Cleaning cloth
  • Further accessories optionally available (on request)

Sugar application range
The following models are particularly suitable for measuring the Brix value. They are used to determine the sugar content in food, especially in fruit, vegetables, juice and sugary drinks. These refractometers are also ideal for monitoring processes in industry (cooling lubricant monitoring, oils and fats).

Main areas of application

  • Industry: process and quality control, lubricant monitoring
  • Food industry: beverages, fruit, confectionery
  • Agriculture: determination of the degree of ripeness of fruit for quality control of the harvest
  • Restaurants and canteen kitchens
