Page 14: Measurement Modes
5.2 Measurement Modes The Prism RT-100 measures the sample refractive index (nD) and temperature. Use the arrow keys to select the concentration units that are calculated from nD and the temperatures with using the pre-loaded equations for Brix, MPG, MEG, and ALV, etc. The main output of 4-20mA signal value switches with the display concentration selected per the 4-20mA output scales section 9.1 of this manual. -

Page 16: Calibration
1. Clean the Prism RT-100 sapphire lens with soft tissue. 2. If any tenacious deposits are present on the sensor lens, you may pre-soak the sensor lens in Pyxis Probe Cleaning Solution (P/N: SER-01) for 10–15 minutes, then rinse with clean water and wipe with soft tissue prior to proceeding to air calibration of refractive index. -
Page 17: Brix And Other Liquid Concentration Offset Calibration
This displayed liquid concentration unit value may be calibrated to a known solution if desired. To do this: 1. Place the Prism RT-100 in the calibration liquid of a known concentration making sure the sensor is covered from ambient light. -
