METTLER TOLEDO Introduces New Quick-Brix™ Portable Refractometer

Columbus, OH (PRWEB) September 14, 2007 -- METTLER TOLEDO is delighted to announce the introduction of Quick-Brix™, a new portable refractometer available in two versions.
Quick-Brix™ 60 is ideal for fruit and vegetable growers to determine the right time for harvesting. For measuring the sugar content (Brix) directly in the orchard, vineyard or field, juice is squeezed on to the measuring prism and the result is available at the touch of a button.
Quick-Brix™ 90 has a wider measuring range and a higher accuracy and is well suited for food and drink manufacturing. Whether incoming raw materials have to be analyzed upon unloading of the delivery vehicle or quick checks have to be performed next to the production line, Quick-Brix™ 90 is the ideal tool to make sure that food ingredients such as jam or honey have the right quality or that juice concentrates or canned food have the right sugar content.
Both instruments come in a rugged splash-proof design and can be used in dusty or challenging environments. Cleaning is done simply by rinsing the unit under a tap and the small size and weight make them fit in any pocket. Operation as well as calibration are simple operations and can be performed by any farm or production operative. Digital measurement, as opposed to traditional optical Brix measurement, eliminates operator bias, so results become considerably more comparable and reliable.
