Calibrate handheld refractometers correctly
A handheld refractometer is an indispensable measurement device when precise values are required for water, sugar or salt content. Whether in food control, beverage production, beekeeping or in the laboratory – correct calibration is the basis for precise analyses and high measurement quality.
Regular calibration: Temperature changes, wear and tear or environmental influences can affect the accuracy of a handheld refractometer. Regular calibration detects such deviations at an early stage and ensures that the device continues to work precisely. A well-calibrated refractometer provides consistent results and prevents measurement errors that can be caused by external factors.

Application example
HRO32-T in wine production
Here, the handheld refractometer is used to measure the sugar content in the grape must (°Brix or °Oechsle). It provides quick measurements directly in the vineyard or cellar.
- Determining the optimum time to harvest the grapes
- Control of the fermentation process
- Assessment of the potential alcohol content
- Quality control of must and wine
