The Important Role of Digital Glucometer in Real Life
A digital sugar meter is used to quickly measure the concentration or refractive index of sugar containing solutions and other non sugar solutions. Widely used in industrial sectors such as sugar production, food, beverages, as well as in agricultural production and scientific research. Suitable for measuring the concentration of various sauce (seasoning) products such as soy sauce and tomato sauce; Suitable for measuring the sugar content of products with high sugar content such as jam, syrup, etc; Suitable for the production line, quality management, and pre shipment inspection of fruit juice, cool drinks, and carbonated drinks; Suitable for the process of fruit cultivation and sales, it can be used to determine the accurate harvest period and classify sweetness levels. In addition, the concentration determination of pulp in the textile industry has also been widely applied
The design principle of a sugar meter: When light enters another medium from one medium, refraction occurs, and the ratio of the incident angle sine is constant, which is called the refractive index. The content of soluble solids in fruit and vegetable juice is directly proportional to the refractive index under certain conditions (at the same temperature and pressure). Therefore, measuring the refractive index of fruit and vegetable juice can determine the concentration (sugar content) of the juice. The commonly used instrument is a handheld refractometer, also known as a sugar mirror or handheld sugar meter. 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 fruits can be estimated approximately. A handheld sugar meter is usually cylindrical in shape. Put the sugar solution to be measured into an open slot at the back, spread it evenly, close the lid, and then point the sugar meter towards the light. Look through the hole in the front to read the value.
