Product Description
Keep diesel fleets compliant and batteries healthy with one digital instrument that reads exhaust fluid strength and electrolyte gravity. Trucking, agriculture and construction maintenance teams get numeric results on an LCD instead of interpreting a scale, which makes it easier to flag off-spec DEF or a weak battery quickly.
This listing is for catalog number 48602: Digital Refractometer, MDX-602, DEF/Battery Acid, 4 scales. The meter zeros with distilled water, then reads a drop of sample in its stainless steel prism well using a 589.3 nm LED with automatic temperature compensation. Scales include urea (DEF), refractive index and battery acid specific gravity. A continuous mode logs 15 readings, the sensing unit is IP67 rated, and a case, pipette, battery and manual are supplied. Add it to your LIGHT LABS order and keep your lab stocked.
Key Features
- DEF urea scale – Reads 0 to 51% urea with 0.1% resolution.
- Battery acid scale – Measures specific gravity from 1.000 to 1.500.
- Refractive index scale – Adds an nD reading for general use.
- Automatic temperature compensation – Consistent readings in shop and field.
- Weather-resistant – IP67 sensing unit, IP65 housing.
- Removable grip and cover – Simple cleaning between samples.
