Coolant Refractometers
The CTX-1 and CTX-2 are handheld coolant/antifreeze refractometers that measure the freezing point of propylene glycol & ethylene glycol, and the specific gravity of battery acid. They both have automatic temperature compensation (ATC), and come with a 5-year warranty.
These coolant/antifreeze refractometers feature the largest, easiest-to-read scale available with clear, sharp figures, screen shading and incredible contrast. This significantly enhances overall precision, even when several different people use the refractometer. These coolant refractometers also come with a rubber grip on the body, which blocks the transmission of hand heat to eliminate temperature errors.
The rugged construction of these handheld coolant/antifreeze refractometers will provide years of reliable use. The optical glass prism is mounted in an all-metal housing which allows the sample and prism to reach temperature equilibrium quickly. The non-roll stand ensures that once these coolant refractometers are placed on a table or bench top, they won't be prone to roll off the surface.
Each order includes a zippered vinyl carrying case, plastic transfer pipette, and instruction manual.
