The MISCO Palm Abbe refractometers are advanced fourth-generation handheld digital refractometers that put laboratory precision in the palm of your hand. They are designed for the rapid and accurate determination of fluid concentrations. These instruments will automatically compensate for temperature with computer precision, and when used and cared for properly, will provide years of trouble-free service
Choose your own scales!
Although the wide-ranging digital refractometer product catalog has refractometers with many different scale combinations, it is not unusual for users to have very specific needs that can’t be met with our conventional off-the-shelf products.
The Palm Abbe PA201 can be programmed with a scale that matches your specific fluid measurement needs, to effectively create a custom refractometer. There is a virtually unlimited combination of scales available from an extensive scale library for you to choose from.
The new Palm Abbe is a fourth-generation digital handheld refractometer that puts laboratory precision in the palm of your hand. Not just laboratory precision, but laboratory precision for the price of a traditional analog refractometer. It is exactly the kind of bold, cutting-edge technology you would expect from MISCO, the company that pioneered the digital handheld refractometer.
The Palm Abbe refractometer is fast, convenient, and easy to use. Simply place a drop or two of fluid in the stainless steel well and press a button. The custom-designed microprocessor delivers a nearly instantaneous readout in degrees Brix. Nonlinear temperature compensation is automatic and ensures that fluids are measured accurately.
The large LCD display is easily read, even in dim light, and removes the subjectivity associated with interpreting where a boundary line crosses tiny scale divisions. And, it is so easy to use! The user interface consists of two buttons, one to take readings and the other to step through various menu options.
Calibration is automatic and does not require the use of special calibration solutions, or tools. The Palm Abbe refractometer automatically calibrates itself to water and is ready to use in seconds. No more screws to turn and nothing to adjust.
