50.9% Brix Refractometer Calibration Fluid – High Brix Calibration Standard – 1.8mL Vial
50.9% Brix Refractometer Calibration Fluid – High Brix Calibration Standard – 1.8mL Vial
A specialty 50.9% Brix calibration solution for checking and calibrating high-range Brix refractometers. Neutral odor, laboratory prepared, and compatible with multiple refractometer brands.
Professional 50.9% Brix Calibration Fluid – Keep Your Refractometer Accurate!
Looking for a reliable way to verify the accuracy of your high-Brix refractometer? NI Supply offers this specialty 50.9% Brix Refractometer Calibration Fluid, designed to provide a known reference value for checking refractometers measuring higher concentrations of sugar solutions.
This calibration fluid has a reference value of 50.9% Brix at 20°C (68°F) and is particularly useful for refractometers that cannot be conveniently checked using ordinary distilled water alone.
Unlike some calibration fluids that have a strong or unpleasant chemical aroma, our formulation has a neutral odor. You can perform your calibration checks without dealing with an overpowering smell.
This is a specialty product that can be difficult to find through ordinary laboratory and refractometer suppliers. Leave it to NI Supply, your refractometer experts, to source and offer the accessories you need to keep your instruments performing properly!

Compatible Refractometers
This 50.9% Brix calibration fluid is not restricted to one particular manufacturer.
It can be used with compatible instruments from manufacturers including:
-
Atago refractometers
-
Milwaukee Instruments refractometers
-
Bellingham + Stanley refractometers
-
Vee Gee refractometers
-
Other analog Brix refractometers

How to Use 50.9% Brix Calibration Fluid
Using this calibration solution is straightforward.
-
Prepare the instrument: Clean the refractometer prism according to the manufacturer's cleaning instructions. Make sure the prism is dry.
-
Apply the solution: Place one or two drops of 50.9% Brix calibration fluid onto the prism.
-
Close the daylight plate: Allow the fluid to spread evenly across the measuring surface.
-
Take a reading: Check the refractometer reading. The expected reference value is 50.9% Brix at 20°C (68°F).
-
Adjust if necessary: If your instrument supports user calibration and the reading differs, follow the manufacturer's calibration procedure to make the appropriate adjustment.
Allow the solution and instrument to reach the reference temperature before checking the reading. Follow the instrument manufacturer's instructions regarding temperature compensation and calibration.
Your refractometer is now ready for use once its reading has been verified.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is 50.9% Brix calibration fluid used for?
It is used to verify and, where supported by the instrument, calibrate Brix refractometers using a known 50.9% Brix reference value. It is particularly useful for high-Brix applications where water alone is not an appropriate calibration reference.
2. Can I use this fluid with an Atago refractometer?
Yes. You can use it with compatible Atago refractometers as well as other manufacturers' instruments, provided 50.9% Brix falls within the measuring range.
3. Can I use this with a digital refractometer?
Yes, provided the digital refractometer supports liquid sample measurement and its range includes 50.9% Brix. Follow the manufacturer's calibration procedure.
4. Can I use this with an Abbe refractometer?
Yes, it can be used with compatible Abbe refractometers that can measure the corresponding Brix reference value. Follow the instrument's sample preparation and measurement instructions.
5. Why use 50.9% Brix fluid instead of distilled water?
Distilled water is generally used to establish a 0% Brix reference. A 50.9% Brix solution provides a higher-range reference point, allowing you to check instrument performance at a concentration much closer to some actual operating measurements.
6. Does this calibration fluid have a strong smell?
No! One of the distinguishing features of this product is its neutral odor. It does not have the unpleasant aroma associated with some other calibration fluids.
7. How much product will I receive?
You will receive approximately 1.8mL of calibration fluid in an amber 4mL vial.
8. What if my refractometer does not have 50.9% Brix on its scale?
This product is intended for instruments whose measuring range includes 50.9% Brix. If your refractometer does not cover that value, you should select a calibration reference appropriate for its measuring range.
