The Atago PAL-HIKARI 2 is a cutting-edge non-destructive digital refractometer specifically engineered for the viticulture and wine industry. This innovative device allows users to measure the Brix (sugar level) of grapes without cutting or squeezing the fruit. By simply placing a whole grape (ideally 15 mm or larger in diameter) onto the sample stage, you receive an instant digital reading. This allows growers to monitor the ripening process directly in the vineyard while keeping the fruit intact for sale or further processing.
Eliminating the need for tedious wiping and cleaning between measurements, the PAL-HIKARI 2 significantly streamlines the quality control process. It features an IP64 rating, ensuring it is dust-proof and protected against water splashes, making it ideal for outdoor agricultural use. With a measurement range of 10.0% to 25.0% Brix and integrated Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC), it provides consistent results between 15°C and 35°C. The Atago PAL-HIKARI 2 is the ultimate professional tool for optimizing harvest timing and maintaining premium grape quality standards.
