Hand-Held Refractometers and Industrial Fluid Testers



Eriez HydroFlow offers a line of test equipment and titration kits for keeping metalworking fluids in peak operating condition. These hand-held instruments measure fluid conditions so corrective actions can be taken before major problems arise.

The Eriez HydroFlow Automatic Temperature Compensating Refractometer allows plant operators to determine the concentration of metalworking coolants and cleaners, heat-treating fluids, water-based hydraulic fluids and even plating baths. This device is portable and requires no batteries. Its large, easy-to-read scale is available in two ranges: 0-10° Brix and 0-32° Brix.

These fluid recycling instruments are designed for most metalworking operations, including cutting and grinding fluids, synthetic machining fluids, plating and acid baths, cleaner baths, water-based hydraulic fluids, die lubricants and chromating solutions.

"Maintaining the proper concentration in industrial fluids is extremely important to maximize the performance and value of the fluid," said a company spokesperson. "If the fluid is run too lean, tool life and fluid life can drop dramatically. If the fluid is run too rich, money is being wasted."
