HANNA HI96832

The HI96832 is a rugged, portable digital refractometer designed for the measurement of percent volume and freezing point of propylene glycol based solutions. The HI96832 has a high accuracy of ±0.2% volume and ±0.5°C freezing point and features simple operation that gives reliable results each and every time. All readings are automatically compensated for temperature variations and displayed with a 1.5 second response time. The sealed flint glass prism and stainless steel well are easy to clean. Just wipe with a soft cloth in preparation for the next sample.

• Sample size as small as 2 metric drops (100 µl)
• Sealed stainless steel well with high-grade optical prism made of flint glass
• Fast 1.5 second response time for temperature compensated readings

The HI96832 Digital Refractometer utilizes the measurement of refractive index to determine the percent volume and freezing points of propylene glycol based solutions. Propylene glycol is used in glycol chillers and dispensing systems intended for food applications, such as beer and wine. Maintaining the appropriate percent of glycol is important in glycol chillers as too low of a percentage could lead to the system freezing and rupturing while too much glycol will reduce the systems efficiency. The instrument converts the refractive index of a sample to percent volume or freezing point. These conversions are based on internationally recognized references for unit conversion and temperature compensation for glycol solutions (e.g. CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 87th Edition). The HI96832 is an easy-to-use tool for measuring freezing point and percent volume in propylene glycol solutions, on the production floor or in the lab.
