$145-$150 | Brix refractometers are effective at measuring coolant concentration. Coolant’s primary purpose is to lubricate and cool the work surface and tooling. Each coolant works best for a given application at a recommended concentration of it to water.

Make Your Coolant Monitoring Flawless with Brix Refractometers
Boost your operational efficiency by effortlessly measuring coolant concentration using a Brix refractometer. It’s no secret that coolant’s main mission is to lubricate and cool your work surface and tooling. And every coolant shines its brightest when used at its recommended concentration. But how do you ensure it’s just right? That’s where Brix Refractometers come in.
Starting from your initial coolant charge, and every day thereafter, as evaporation densifies the concentration, our refractometers make it easy to maintain the perfect balance. This tool is not just essential – it’s a game-changer in preventing issues before they arise.
What Makes Our Refractometer Stand Out?
- Well-lit Scale (Specialist Only): No squinting, no guesswork. Just clear readings.
- Integrated Drip Feed (Specialist Only): A steady, reliable source of coolant for accurate measurements.
- Anti-roll Support (Specialist Only): Ensures your refractometer stays put when you’re not holding it.
- Comfortable Eyepiece: Designed for your ease, because details matter.
- Easy-to-Read, Bright Scale: Your readings, crystal clear.

Check your coolant’s technical data sheet to determine where your coolant will read on the Brix Scale. Some have a “Refractometer Factor” which you multiply the scale reading by to obtain the value in percent.
Select a scale that will read your target value, but also higher values, due to evaporation at the sump level.
