Features: 

- Milwaukee MA871 is an easy-to-use digital refractometer .
- MA871 is an optical tool that uses the measurement of the refractive index to determine % Brix sugar in aqueous solutions .
- The method is both simple and fast.
- Samples are measured after a simple calibration with deionized or distilled water .
- Within seconds, the instrument measures the refractive index of the sample and converts it to % Brix concentration units.
- The measurement technique and temperature compensation use the method recommended in the ICUMSA Methods Book (recognized institution for International Sugar Testing).
- Measurement and temperature (in ° C or ° F) on the large dual level display with Low Power and other auxiliary message codes are displayed simultaneously. Key features include:
• Dual level LCD
• Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC)
• Easy installation and storage
• Battery operation with Low Power indicator (BEPS)
• Automatically switches off 3 minutes after use.
