Bellingham + Stanley 90-501 Refractometer Calibration Fluid, NIST Traceable, 5ml Bottle, AG2.5 Type, 1.33659 Refractive Index, 2.50° Brix (Pack of 5)

AG Fluids are an organic solution calibrated in °Brix and RI and have a long shelf life. Having a low °Brix/RI value, AG fluids provide a low cost alternative to sucrose solutions especially as they can be supplied in multi-packs of 5 or 20 5ml bottles, reducing the per bottle shipping cost. Multipacks are supplied with certificate of calibration, MSDS data and pipettes. They have no special storage or transit requirements and are therefore easy to ship and store. AG Fluids are manufactured on a %weight/weight basis in a UKAS laboratory using only the highest quality chemicals and Analar distilled water. Manufactured in large batches, the resultant samples are checked using a controlled refractometer that has been carefully calibrated with NIST and PTB primary standards, providing further traceability. However, AG Fluids have a refractive index/temperature co-efficient that is not the same as sucrose and so cannot easily be used on refractometers using sucrose temperature compensation. For further advise on the use of AG fluids, contact the Sales Team or use the FAQ system to determine whether AG Fluids can be used on a particular refractometer.
