• Area of application: wine
• Automatic temperature compensation

• The models in the KERN ORA-W range are universal, maintenance-free analogue manual refractometers
• The practical and robust design means that it can be used simply, efficiently and on a permanent basis, day in day out
• The manual effort to convert the value is avoided by the use of several selectable scales and thereby eliminates user error
• These scales have been specially developed, calculated precisely and checked. Another key feature is the very thin, clear lines
• The optical system and the prism cover are made from special materials, which enable you to measure with low tolerances
• All models are fitted with an eyepiece which can be adjusted easily and smoothly to different visual capacities
• The models which are marked "ATC" have automatic temperature compensation, which makes it possible to obtain precise measurements at different environmental temperatures ( °C - °C)
• Included in the scope of supply:
• - Storage box
• - Calibration solution
• - if necessary, calibration block (only for KERN ORA 1WB)
• - Pipette
• - Screwdriver
• - Cleaning cloth
• Further accessories are available as options

The following models are particularly suitable for measuring the sugar content in fruit. This is used to determine what alcohol content is to be expected from the fruit You can also determine the degree of ripeness of fruit (fruit sugar), e.g. grapes etc. 

Main areas of application: 

• Agriculture: Wine and fruit cultivation
• Wine production
