What is a handheld sugar meter and what is its detection principle?
The handheld sugar meter is an instrument specially used to quickly measure the concentration or refractive index of sugar-containing solutions and other non-sugar solutions.
This instrument 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.
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.
The handheld sugar meter is also called a handheld sugar meter. The handheld sugar meter uses a digital LCD display and is suitable for measuring almost any liquid such as juice, food and beverages. The handheld sugar meter has a measurement range of 0-65% and can be displayed within 3 seconds. result.
