Nova-Tech Atago PR-a Palette Series Industry - Manual (Page 2)

PR-32
␣
Cat.No.3405
Four models of the Palette
␣
are available for your different measurement samples.
Main Features
Accuracy improved to ±0.1%
The conventional measurement accuracy, ±0.2%, is
increased to ±0.1%. The highest accuracy available in a
compact model.
User scale feature
The user scale function has been added. Concentrations of
various samples can be displayed by setting up a
coefficient. Three separate user scales can be entered.
Convenient temperature display
A temperature display function has been added.
Temperature is displayed by pressing a switch.
External-light-Interference (ELI)*
Conventionally, digital optical instruments have the potential
to display incorrect measurement values if sampling is
performed near a window or outdoors where lighting may be
too intense. The new ELI technology provides security
under these conditions to ensure accurate measurements.
Two-year warranty
ATAGO has extended the warranty term for the Palette
␣
series to 2 years. For the terms and conditions, contact
ATAGO.
Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC) function
With ATC, there is no need to worry about the measurement
temperature.
Large, easy to read display
The large-sized liquid crystal panel makes it easy to read
the measured result.
Apply 1 drop of sample solution
onto the prism surface.

Control of dilution ratio (multiples in %)
When water soluble cutting oils, aqueous cleaning agents,
surfactants, liquid chemicals. etc. are diluted for use, their
dilution ratio (multiples in %) can be managed by the
Palette
␣ series.
Control of water content (%)
The water content in certain kinds of metal working oils,
liquid cleansers, and liquid medicine, can evaporate while
being used. To maintain the level of highest efficiency for
the liquid, water needs to be replenished for optimal
efficiency. In such cases, change in the water content can
be managed by the Palette
␣ series.
Control the blend ratio of two liquids (%)
When a liquid additive is mixed with a primary liquid (for
example, when flux or working oil is dissolved into a liquid
cleanser), the blend ratio (%) of the foreign liquid can be
managed by the Palette
␣ series.
Measurement Method
Measures concentration of solutions with a light beam

This instrument measures the refractive index of liquids and converts the measured value into the sugar concentration value, ‘Brix.’
The relationship between the refractive index and Brix (%) concentration is based on the type of liquid. With the user function, direct
concentration measurements can now be displayed by establishing and programming the respective coefficient into the user scale.

* Calibration with the Standard Liquid LG.
The Palette
␣
series is the ultimate compact instrument
which is the result of years of proven reliable performance,
ease of operation and the functionality of design.

* External Light Interference (ELI)
- Patent Pending
When intense light penetrates the prism of a
digital refractometer, the light waves may
interfere with the sensor resulting in inaccurate
readings.
To ensure accurate measurement results each
time, the Palette ␣ is programmed with the ELI
function to display the warning message “nnn”
when intense direct light is detected. Forming
a habit of shading the sample stage with your
hand and re-pressing the START/OFF Switch
(when the warning message from the ELI
function is displayed) will ensure accurate
measurement results each time.
