Accuracy of ± 0.0003 for Urine Specific Gravity delivers the highest precision available from a portable refractometer.

The PDX-CL from VEE GEE delivers digital accuracy and high-end features for precise measurements of urine specific gravity. With 4-decimal resolution and accuracy of ±0.0003, the PDX-CL delivers performance never before available in a portable instrument.

The great advantage of the automatic PDX-CL digital refractometer is the natural consistency it affords. Measurement values are not dependent on how each operator reads an optical scale; a fuzzy shadow line can be interpreted in many different ways. Other digital refractometers on the market offer only 3-decimal resolution or scrolling LCD readouts which can greatly contribute to errors, reporting, and the accuracy levels of screening.

Compared to optical refractometers, the level of training, which is required to use the PDX-CL is exceptionally minimal. Optical instruments require some basic skills and experience before operators are comfortable using them. With the PDX-CL, after a sample is applied to the prism, one needs only to press a button and read the measurement from the digital display...that’s it. This ensures that whether its being used for clinical urinalysis, drug screening or the dehydration level of athletes, the PDX-CL will provide consistent, accurate results.

To further ensure accurate screening the PDX-CL can be easily programmed with high and low limits to a range as small as 0.0001 for urine specific gravity. If a measurement falls outside of the target range, the red LED alarm and LCD will flash to quickly alert the operator.

With accuracy of ± 0.0003 USG, scales for R.I. and Refraction, automatic temperature compensation, a linear high-resolution CCD sensor, and low power consumption, the PDX-CL is an instrument, which will serve its clinical customers with unparalleled fidelity.
