Description
The Milwaukee MA887 digital salinity refractometer is a portable, optical instrument that measures the refractive index to determine salinity in natural or artificial seawater. This accurate Milwaukee MA887 digital salinity refractometer features automatic temperature compensation and displays results in three selectable units: PSU, ppt, and Specific Gravity (S.G. Thousands of saltwater aquarium enthusiasts have dialed in their analysis with the MA887 Digital Seawater refractometer. No more visual readings, get a digital readout within seconds.
The Milwaukee Digital Seawater Refractometer is fast and easy-to-use with a response time under 2 seconds. Maintenance is a breeze with an easy-to-clean sealed flint glass prism and stainless steel well. Ideal for determining the salinity of natural and artificial seawater, ocean water or brackish intermediates.
