Atago 4920: PAL‐BX|SALT+15 – Dual Function Refractometer & Salt Meter
Atago PAL‐BX|SALT+15 – The Ultimate Brix & Salt Meter
Discover the unparalleled precision of the Atago PAL‐BX|SALT+15, a state‐of-the-art hybrid device that seamlessly combines a refractometer and a salt meter into one compact, handheld instrument. Engineered for food professionals and quality control experts, this instrument measures both the concentration (Brix) and salt content with exceptional accuracy—an essential capability for balancing flavors and ensuring product consistency.
Ingenious Optical and Electrochemical Design At the heart of the PAL‐BX|SALT+15 lies an optical prism dedicated to measuring the Brix value, paired with a titanium electrode designed for precise salt content detection. This dual‐system approach offers reliable measurements without the need for dilution, even when dealing with highly concentrated samples such as sauces. By eliminating dilution steps, the device not only streamlines your workflow but also reduces the margin for error in critical food testing processes.
