The DR301-95 is both a high-quality mobile handheld device and a simple digital desktop device. In addition to the refractive index and sugar content, it can also measure the salt content (%) (NaCl). On request, the DR301-95 can be manufactured with any two other scales. Via the menu control it is possible to switch on the automatic temperature compensation for each scale – with measurement reference to sucrose. An alarm option can be set up for monitoring limit values in production processes. The supplied Mains adaptor turns the DR301-95 into a small laboratory refractometer. In mobile use, it is operated with a 9 V block battery. The DR301-95 is used in the food and beverage industry, in pharmacies, laboratories and testing laboratories as well as in research and teaching.
