The HI 96821 Digital Refractometer is a rugged portable, water resistant device that benefits from

Hanna’s years of experience as a manufacturer of analytical instruments.

The HI 96821 is an optical instrument that employs the measurement of the refractive index to

determine sodium chloride concentration in aqueous solutions used in food preparation. It is not

intended for sea water salinity measurements. The measurement of refractive index is simple and

quick and provides the user an accepted method for NaCl analysis. Samples are measured after a

simple user calibration with deionized or distilled water. Within seconds the instrument measures

the refractive index of the solution. The digital refractometer eliminates the uncertainty associated

with mechanical refractometers and is easily portable for measurements where you need them.

The instrument utilizes internationally recognized references for unit conversion and temperature

compensation. It can display the measurement of NaCl concentration 4 different ways: g/100 g,

g/100 mL, Specific Gravity, and °Baumé.

Temperature (in °C or °F) is displayed simultaneously with the measurement (on 3 of the ranges)

on the large dual level display along with icons for Low Power and other helpful message codes.

Key features include:

• Waterproof models offers IP65 waterproof protection

• Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC)

• Battery operation with Low Power indicator (BEPS)

• Automatically turns off after 3 minutes of non-use

Aqueous NaCl determinations are made by measuring the refractive index of a solution. Refractive

Index is an optical characteristic of a substance and the number of dissolved particles in it.

Refractive Index is defined as the ratio of the speed of light in empty space to the speed of light in

the substance. A result of this property is that light will “bend”, or change direction, when it travels

through a substance of different refractive index. This is called refraction.

When passing from a material with a higher to lower refractive index, there is a critical angle at

which an incoming beam of light can no longer refract, but will instead be reflected off the interface.

The critical angle can be used to easily calculate the refractive index according to the equation:

sin (θcritical) = n2/ n1

Where n2is the refractive index of the lower-density medium; n1is the refractive index of the

higher-density medium.

In the HI 96821 refractometer, light from an LED passes through a prism in contact with the sample.

An image sensor determines the critical angle at which the light is no longer refracted through the

sample.

Specialized algorithms then apply temperature compensation to the measurement and convert the

refractive index to: g/100 g (% by mass), g/100 mL, Specific Gravity (S.G. 20/20), or °Baumé.

• Handle instrument carefully. Do not drop.

• Do not immerse instrument under water.

• Do not spray water to any part of instrument except the “sample well” located over the prism.

• The instrument is intended to measure sodium chloride solutions. Do not expose instrument or

prism to solvents that will damage it. This includes most organic solvents and extremely hot

or cold solutions.

• Particulate matter in a sample may scratch the prism. Absorb sample on soft tissue and rinse

sample well with deionized or distilled water between samples.

• Use plastic pipettes to transfer all solutions. Do not use metallic tools such as needles, spoons

or tweezers as these will scratch the prism.

• Cover sample well with hand if measuring in direct sun.

CALIBRATION PROCEDURECALIBRATION PROCEDURE

CALIBRATION PROCEDURE

Calibration should be performed daily, before measurements are made, when the battery has

been replaced, or between a long series of measurements.

1. Press the ON/OFF key, then release. Two instrument test screens will be displayed briefly;

all LCD segments followed by the percentage of remaining battery life. It will briefly display

an indication of the measurement units set. When the LCD displays dashes, the instrument is

ready.

2. Using a plastic pipette, fill the sample well with distilled or deionized water. Make sure the

prism is completely covered.

Note: If the ZERO sample is subject to intense light such as sunlight or another strong source,

cover the sample well with your hand or other shade during the calibration.

3. Press the ZERO key. If no error messages appear, your unit is calibrated.

(For a description of ERROR MESSAGES see page 11).

Note: The 0.0 screen will remain until a sample is measured or the instrument is turned off.

4. Gently absorb the ZERO water standard with a soft tissue. Use care not

to scratch the prism surface. Dry the surface completely. The instrument

is ready for sample measurement.

Note: If instrument is turned off the calibration will not be lost.

www.instrumentchoice.com.au

Note: The last measurement value will be displayed until the next sample is measured or the

instrument is turned off. Temperature will be continuously updated.

Note: The ”ATC”tag blinks and automatic temperature compensation is disabled if the

temperature exceeds the 10-40 °C / 50-104 °F range.

Note: Temperature is not displayed in °Baumé mode.

4. Remove sample from the sample well by absorbing with a soft tissue.

5. Using a plastic pipette, rinse prism and sample well with distilled or deionized water. Wipe

dry. The instrument is ready for the next sample.

MEASUREMENT PROCEDUREMEASUREMENT PROCEDURE

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE

Verify the instrument has been calibrated before taking measurements.

1. Wipe off prism surface located at the bottom of the sample well. Make sure the prism and

sample well are completely dry.

2. Using a plastic pipette, drip sample onto the prism surface. Fill the well completely.

Note: If the temperature of the sample differs significantly from the temperature of the

instrument, wait approximately 1 minute to allow thermal equilibration.

3. Press the READ key. The results are displayed in unit of interest.

TO CHANGE MEASUREMENT UNITTO CHANGE MEASUREMENT UNIT

TO CHANGE MEASUREMENT UNIT

Press the RANGE key to select measurement units. The instrument toggles between the four

measurement scales each time the key is pressed and the primary display indicates “G-G” for

g/100 g, “G-L” for g/100 mL, “S.G.” for Specific Gravity and “bAU” for °Baumé. When the

instrument displays the screen with 4 dashes, the instrument is ready for measurement. A

number on the display indicates the selected unit: “1” denotes g/100 g, “2” denotes g/100 mL,

“3” denotes Specific Gravity and “4” in the secondary display denotes °Baumé (as indicated on

the instrument cover).

Note: Temperature is not displayed in °Baumé mode.

MAKING A STANDARD SODIUM CHLORIDE SOLUTIONMAKING A STANDARD SODIUM CHLORIDE SOLUTION

MAKING A STANDARD SODIUM CHLORIDE SOLUTION

To make a Standard NaCl Solution (g/100 g), follow the procedure below:

•Place container (such as a glass vial or dropper bottle that has a cover) on an analytical balance.

•Tare the balance.

•To make an X NaCl solution weigh out X grams of high purity dried Sodium Chloride (CAS #:

7647-14-5: MW 58.44) directly into the container.

•Add distilled or deionized water to the container so the total weight of the solution is 100 g.

Example with g/100 g NaCl:

g/100 g NaCl g NaCl g Water g Total

10 10.000 90.000 100.000

To replace the instrument’s battery, follow these steps:

• Make sure the instrument is off.

• Turn instrument upside down and remove the battery cover by turning it counterclockwise.

• Extract the battery from its location.

• Replace with a new 9V battery making sure to observe polarity.
