ATAGO PAL-3 Digital Refractometer — A Portable Concentration Meter (Brix Scale)
The ATAGO PAL-3 is a portable digital refractometer designed for the rapid determination of solution concentrations on the Brix scale, covering a range from 0.0% to 93.0%. The device is intended for laboratory and industrial quality control of liquid samples, food products, and process solutions.
The ATAGO PAL-3 refractometer is used in the food, agricultural, processing, and chemical industries. Its compact design allows for measurements to be taken directly on the production floor, in the laboratory, or during the inspection of raw materials.
Measuring Solution Concentration on the Brix Scale
The PAL-3 digital Brix refractometer measures the refractive index of light and displays the result as a percentage on the Brix scale. For aqueous sucrose solutions, this value corresponds to the mass fraction of sugar; for other liquids, it serves as a relative indicator of concentration.
The wide measurement range of 0–93% Brix enables the analysis of samples with varying concentrations of dissolved substances, including juices, syrups, concentrates, food mixtures, and other industrial liquids.
Advantages of the ATAGO PAL-3 Portable Refractometer from Venta Lab
Measurement range of 0.0–93.0% Brix — suitable for solutions with a wide variety of concentrations.
Minimal sample volume — requires only 2–3 drops for analysis.
Rapid measurement — results obtained in approximately 3 seconds. Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC) — adjustment for the effect of temperature within the device's operating specifications.
Water calibration — eliminates the need for special calibration solutions for standard setup.
ELI function — warns of excessive external light that could interfere with measurements.
Metal sample stage — ensures mechanical durability and ease of use.
Digital display of results — allows for quick reading of measurements.
Compact design — suitable for use outside the laboratory.
Refractometer for the food industry and raw material quality control
The ATAGO PAL-3 laboratory refractometer is used to monitor the concentration of fruit juices, syrups, sugar solutions, food concentrates, and process mixtures.
In the food industry, the device helps verify the uniformity of product batches, monitor concentration changes during production, and perform rapid analysis of liquid samples.
In production laboratories, this digital Brix meter can be used for incoming raw material inspection and for verifying the process parameters of solutions.
Measuring hot samples
The design of the PAL series refractometers allows for the analysis of hot samples, provided that the operating conditions specified by the manufacturer are followed.
This reduces sample preparation time when monitoring heated syrups and other process liquids. Note that the permissible sample temperature should be considered separately from the automatic temperature compensation range.
