Detailed explanation of the working principle and design structure of the handheld sugar meter
In recent years, with the rapid advancement of agricultural science and technology, a variety of advanced instruments have appeared on the market, including a handheld sugar meter, which is developed and supplied by Top Yunnong. This instrument is used to quickly measure sugar-containing solutions and other Concentration or refractive index of non-sugar solutions.
It is widely used in sugar, food, beverage and other industrial sectors as well as in agricultural production and scientific research. Top Yunnong handheld sugar meter is suitable for measuring the concentration of various sauce (seasonings) products such as soy sauce, ketchup, etc. It is suitable for measuring the sugar content of products containing more sugar such as jam, syrup, liquid sugar, etc. It is suitable for fruit juice and refreshing It is suitable for the production line of beverages and carbonated beverages, quality management, pre-shipment inspection, etc., and is suitable for the process from planting to sales of fruits. It can be used to determine the accurate harvesting period and perform sweetness classification.
In addition, the concentration determination of slurries in the textile industry has also been widely used.
When light enters another medium from one medium, refraction occurs, and the ratio of the sine of the incident angle is constant. This ratio is called the refractive index.
The soluble solid content in fruit and vegetable juices is directly proportional to the refractive index under certain conditions (same temperature and pressure). Therefore, by measuring the refractive index of fruit and vegetable juices, the concentration (sugar content) of fruit and vegetable juices can be found.
Commonly used instruments are handheld refractometers, also known as sugar mirrors and handheld sugar meters. By measuring the soluble solid content (sugar content) of fruits and vegetables, the quality of fruits and vegetables can be understood and the maturity of the fruits can be roughly estimated. A handheld sugar meter is generally cylindrical. Place the sugar solution to be measured into the slot that can be opened at the back, spread it evenly, close the lid, then hold the sugar meter up to the light and look through the hole in the front to read.
