Refractometer calibration material
UKAS, NIST, PTB, ISO17025
Bellingham + Stanley
Bellingham + Stanley Ltd., a UKAS accredited calibration laboratory No. 0834, offer a choice of materials suitable for use with different instrument types and applications.
Calibration Oils and AG Fluids are organic compounds that cover the range 1.33-1.56 RI (or 0-95 °Brix) and have a shelf life of 12-months. They are ideal for calibrating refractometers that have temperature control in both food and industrial applications.
Sucrose Solutions offer ease of use when calibrating instruments that do not incorporate temperature control but rely on temperature compensation. They are also preferred by beverage, sugar and food producers as their components typically match the product under test. However, sucrose solutions have a short shelf life, so customers tend to opt for a supply contract to ensure regular supply with minimal logistical expense.
