Practice video
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
HRS10-T for checking the salt content (salinity)
This KRÜSS Optronic handheld refractometer is an important analyzer for determining the salt content. Here are a few application examples:
- Food industry: Control of product quality by determining the sodium chloride content.
- Testing of brines, soups, juices, canned vegetables, seafood and pickle water
- Marine aquariums: monitoring salinity to stabilize water values
- Ensuring the ideal specific density (approx. 1.022-1.023 at 25 °C)
