The main scope of applications is:

  • Food industry: Beverages, fruits and sweets
  • Agriculture: Determination of the degree of ripeness of fruit for quality control in harvesting
  • Restaurants and large-scale catering establishment

The models in the KERN ORF range are accurate and universal, maintenance-free digital manual refractometers.
Other key features are the easy handling and sturdiness. The handy and robust design allows the easy, efficient and sustainable use in everyday life.

The large, easy-to-read TFT colour display with integrated temperature display supports the user to reliably determine the measurement. 

The large range of models with either a single or multiple measuring scales means that you can use the product in many application areas. The optimised device software can give the measurements in various measurement scales.

The integrated automatic temperature compensation (ATC) means that you can work easily and quickly, as you do not have to manually convert the measurement. 

Due to the fact that the refractometer has been calibrated at the factory, this guarantees that it can be used immediately for accurately measuring your sample.

Included in the scope of supply:

  • Calibration solution
  • Pipette
  • Storage case
  • 2 x AAA batteries
  • Leather case
  • Screwdriver
  • Cleaning cloth

Calibration

Any analogue or digital refractometer will only give correct results if it is checked regularly, i.e. calibrated correctly and adjusted when required. A refractometer or another measuring device is only a reliable measuring and checking tool if it is calibrated and this calibration is documented as part of a quality procedure.

Measuring “correctly” is of elementary significance, as it is not unusual for inaccurate or “wrong” measurements to have expensive economic consequences. Calibration or establishing the accuracy of checking equipment must therefore be carried out by laboratories throughout the world.

In the context of standard requirements for monitoring checking equipment, every company with a Quality Management system is obliged to test and document its measuring equipment at regular intervals. The refractometer calibration certificate documents the intended measuring functionality and confirms the measuring accuracy of your refractometer to you.

Refractive index standard traceable to SRM¹ of NIST² and PTB³.
