3GENERAL DESCRIPTIONThe HI 96811, HI 96812, HI 96813 and HI 96814 Digital Wine Refractometers are ruggedportable, water resistant devices that benefit from Hanna’s years of experience as a manufacturer ofanalytical instruments. Hanna offers four related wine refractometers to fill the differing requirementsfound in the industry. All are equally valid ways to measure the sugar content of grape or mustsamples in the field or winery.The HI 96811, HI 96812, HI 96813 and HI 96814 are optical instruments that are based on themeasurement of the refractive index of a solution. The measurement of refractive index is simpleand quick and provides the vintner a standard accepted method for sugar content analysis. Samplesare measured after a simple user calibration with deionized or distilled water. Within seconds theinstrument measures the refractive index of the grape. These digital refractometers eliminate theuncertainty associated with mechanical refractometers and are easily portable for measurements inthe field.The four instruments utilize internationally recognized references for unit conversion and temperaturecompensation.HI 96811 measures %BrixHI 96812 measures °BauméHI 96813 measures %BrixPotential Alcohol (% vol)HI 96814 measures %Brix°Oechsle (°Oe)°KMW (°Babo)Temperature (in °C or °F) is displayed simultaneously with the measurement on the large dual leveldisplay along with icons for Low Power and other helpful message codes.Key features include:• Dual-level LCD• Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC)• Easy setup and storage• Battery operation with Low Power indicator (BEPS)• Automatically turns off after 3 minutes of non-use• Single-point calibration with distilled or deionized water• Waterproof models offers IP65 waterproof protection• Quick, precise results readings are displayed in approximately 1.5 seconds• Small sample size as small as 2 metric drops.QAQC LAB WHITE STONE VA 22578TEL (804) 318-3686
