Atago MASTER-20PT Refractometer

Overview of Atago MASTER-20PT refractometer

The Atago MASTER-20PT refractometer (Cat. No.: 2992) is a handheld optical instrument from Atago (Japan), designed to measure the Brix of low-concentration solutions. Featuring a durable plastic body, the device is suitable for testing diluted solutions, fruit juices, or cutting oils. As a standard model without water resistance or automatic temperature compensation, it provides a cost-effective and efficient measurement solution.

Outstanding features

• Narrow Brix scale from 0,0 to 20,0%, optimizing reading clarity for dilute solution samples.
• Corrosion-resistant plastic body, specifically suitable for acidic or salty samples.
• Simple mechanical design, easy to operate, with direct result observation through the eyepiece without requiring power.
• An economical alternative when users do not require water resistance or automatic temperature compensation.

Applications

• Measure sugar concentration in fruit juices and low-sweetness soft drinks.
• Check and control the concentration of metal cutting oil emulsions in industrial machining.
• Measure the concentration of dilute salty or mildly acidic solutions in testing laboratories.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Atago MASTER-20PT refractometer differ from model MASTER-20T?
Both models have identical technical specifications and Brix measurement ranges; the only difference is that MASTER-20PT features a corrosion-resistant plastic body (suitable for salty/acidic samples), while MASTER-20T uses a metal body.

Can the device be used in humid environments?
Model MASTER-20PT is not water-resistant, so users should handle it with care to avoid water entering the body and Contact us (Hoa Viet) for advice on a more suitable waterproof device if needed.
