9.3 Sanitary process refractometer PR-23-AC
The refractometer PR-23-AC is a 3A Sanitary process refractometer for measuring
concentrations in a pipe line. Easy to install in any pipe size directly or using a flowcell.
The Sanitary process refractometer is suitable for all food and beverage processing ap-
plications where on-line monitoring and control can help to improve product quality
and reduce costs.
