Description of Vee Gee Scientific BX 1 Refractometer

Handheld portable refractometer for Brix (0.0 to 32.0%) measurement of sugar content in fruit, juices, soft drinks, coffee and cocoa beverages, lactic beverages, purees, soups, industrial fluids, water-soluble detergents, and aqueous film forming foams (AFFF) for fire fighting. Manual temperature compensation and calibrated with distilled water using a tool-free calibration ring. Ambient light illuminates the scale; no additional power source is required. Durable metal and rubber outer shell with a telescope-shaped, streamlined design (40 x 40 x 165mm), a rubber grip to guard against hand heat for accurate measurements, and a non-roll stand to protect against damage. Optical glass prism mounted in all-metal housing for quick temperature equilibrium between sample and prism.

Reliable Tool for Accurate Readings

This substance analysis instrument is a game changer in our lab. Thanks to my knowledge gained in practice, i CAN confidently say that this equipment is accurate and reliable. The measurement results are always consistent and trustworthy, saving us tons of time and money .The device is also very easy to use, making it an ideal tool for both beginners and experts. The only downside is the price tag which may be a bit steep for some budget-conscious labs..

Pros
  • Accurate and precise measurements for various applications.
Cons
  • Requires regular calibration to maintain accuracy.

Poorly Performing Refractometer

Based on my observations, this instrument is unreliable and inconsistent.While the initial setup was easy, it FAILED to produce accurate results across multiple tests. The only positive aspect is its portability, but that does not outweigh the negative experience of using it. Overall, I would not recommend purchasing this instrumentation for substance analysis..

Pros
  • Easy to use and obtain accurate readings
Cons
  • Requires proper calibration before use

The price is justified.: Check, measure and check

Robust design with glass optics. Cheap refractometers don't last long. Breaking them in the middle of a scrum on the field incurs more expense than savings. Worth the extra money to get a quality tool.

Pros
  • Ambient light illuminates the scale; no additional power pack required
Cons
  • Long delivery time
