Introduction
Your lightweight portable refractometer is a precision
optical instrument designed to measure urine specific
gravity (UG), serum albumen (SG / protein) and re-
fractive index (Nd). It uses three accurate and gradu-
ated scales that coincide with JSCP regulations. It is
excellent for medical monitoring, scientific research
and quality assurance requirements. Refractometers
operate on the principle that as the concentration or
density of a solution increases, its refractive index
changes proportionately. The refractive angle meas-
ured by your refractometer registers on the scale. The
higher the concentration, the higher the readings reg-
ister on the scale.

Operating Procedures
1. With the COVER PLATE open, clean the PRISM
with a soft cloth to avoid scratching the surfaces.
2. Aim the refractometer toward a light source and
rotate the EYEPIECE to obtain the clearest focus.
3. Adjustment of the null (reference point):
A. Open the COVER PLATE.
B. Apply a few drops of pure distilled water onto
the PRISM platform.
C. Close the COVER PLATE.
D. Turn the CALIBRATION SCREW until the
dark and light boundary line coincides with the
bottom line of the scale (calibration line).
4. Carefully dry the prism platform and the cover.
5. Place a few drops of the test solution on the prism
and close the COVER PLATE so the solution
spreads evenly on the prism.
6. Aim the front of the refractometer towards the light
source and focus the eyepiece on the boundary
line of the light and dark hemispheres.
7. The boundary line indicates the concentration of
Urine Specific Gravity and Refractive Index of the
test sample.
8. After use, clean prisms with a cloth and remove
any residue.
9. The temperature of the null reference liquid should
be at the same temperature as the sample solu-
tion. For variations in temperature the null point
should be adjusted once every 30 minutes.

Precautions
Never submerge the unit, and do not let liquid to seep into
the unit’s body. Clean the refractometer after each use
with a soft cotton cloth. Do not scratch surface of the
prisms. Store in a dry, clean, and non-corrosive environ-
ment. Avoid strong shocks.
