Hand Held
Refractometer for Antifreeze and Battery
Fluid
Propylene Glycol Range:
-50ºF to 32ºF
Ethylene Glycol Range: -60ºF to 32ºF
Dimensions: 27 x 40 x 160mm
Weight: 176 grams
Open daylight plate and place 2-3
drops of the liquid sample on the
main prism. Close the daylight plate
so the sample spreads across the
entire surface of the prism without
air bubbles or dry spots. Allow the
sample to rest for 30 seconds. Hold
the daylight plate in the direction
of a light source and look into the
eyepiece. You will see a circular
field with graduations down the
center. The upper portion of the
field should be blue. Take the
reading where the boundary line of
blue and white cross the graduated
scale. The scale will provide a
direct reading of the freezing point
of antifreeze solutions or the
charge level of battery fluid.
