Product Description
ATC Wine Refractometers, in models YR05931 to YR05936, represent the pinnacle of precision in the analytical world of winemaking. These devices enable winemakers to measure the alcohol content and sugar levels with high accuracy, thus ensuring quality control in the production process. Made from pure aluminium, these optical refractometers are designed for durability and effectiveness.
The model range includes:
- YR05931: Features a measurement range for alcohol content from 0 to 80% v/v with an accuracy of ±1% v/v. Note that this model lacks ATC (Automatic Temperature Compensation).
- YR05932: Measures 0-25%Vol and 0-40% Brix, offering high precision with a ±0.2% accuracy and enables ATC from 10-30°C.
- YR05933: Specially calibrated for a range of 0-25%Vol and 0-170 °Oe, featuring ATC and excellent specificity and sensitivity.
- YR05934: Enables measurement from 0- 22% Baume, 0-25%Vol, and 0-40% Brix, with ATC integrated within the temperature range of 10-30°C.
- YR05935: Covers 0-140 °Oe and 0-27 KMW (Babo), significantly enhancing sugar measurement precision alongside ATC.
- YR05936: The broadest range offering from 0-190 °Oe and covering up to 38 KMW (Babo), perfect for comprehensive wine compositional analysis. This model also features precise temperature compensation.
