Product Description
The ATC Milk Refractometers YR05937 and YR05938 are high-precision optical instruments developed to meet the needs of professionals who require accurate refractive index measurements in milk and soybean samples. Both models feature Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC), enhancing the accuracy of measurements by adjusting for temperature fluctuations between 10-30°C.
Model YR05937 offers a measurement range of 0-25% for milk and 0-32% for soybean Brix. It provides a minimum division of 0.5% for soybean and 0.2% for Brix, with an impressive accuracy of ±0.5% for soybean and ±0.2% for Brix. Crafted from durable pure aluminum, this refractometer is designed for durability and precision.
On the other hand, the YR05938 model focuses exclusively on milk analysis, supporting a measurement range of 0-20%. With a minimum division and accuracy of 0.2%, it ensures reliable and repeatable results, making it a favorite among dairy producers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC)?
ATC is a feature that automatically adjusts the refractometer’s readings to compensate for temperature variations, ensuring accurate measurements regardless of sample temperature.
Can the refractometers be used for substances other than milk and soybean?
While these models are optimized for milk and soybean, they can be used for other liquids with similar refractive properties, though this may affect accuracy.
How do I clean and maintain the refractometer?
It’s recommended to clean the instrument with a soft, damp cloth after each use and store it in a dry, clean environment to maintain its precision.
Advantages and Disadvantages
The advantages of the ATC Milk Refractometers include high accuracy, durability due to their aluminum construction, and the ability to compensate for temperature variations through ATC, enhancing measurement precision in diverse environments.
A potential disadvantage is that these models are designed specifically for milk and soybean analysis. Other substances may not be accurately measured without calibration adjustments, which could be limiting for some applications.
Product Use in the Field
The ATC Milk Refractometers YR05937 and YR05938 are popular in dairy and food industries for quality control processes, helping producers ensure the consistency and quality of their products. These refractometers deliver rapid results, supporting efficient workflow management in high-demand settings.
In practical scenarios, the ability to quickly verify the fat and sugar content in milk and soybean samples is crucial, especially for producers tasked with adhering to strict regulatory standards. With these refractometers, industry professionals can carry out precise analyses, contributing to better product quality management.
Recommendations
When using these refractometers, ensure that each sample is properly homogenized to obtain the most accurate readings. Calibrate the instrument regularly according to the manufacturer’s instructions to maintain optimal performance. For enhanced longevity, store the refractometer in a protective case when not in use.
