Refractometer Test at Oct 1 BRS meeting???

[denvig]

Mine has SG and PPT

 

[Chris A.]

For those that have both sg and salinity in ppt, can you folks check for me and see what sg is claimed to correspond to 35 ppt on the scale of your refractometers?

TIA

I think mine says 1.027=35

 

[Randy Holmes-Farley]

Thanks, folks.

[Randy Holmes-Farley]

Thanks. Good to hear they have the relationship correct. Not all such devices do.

This was done in October. It worked out well. I don't know about others, but mine (the blue one you get at most places) was dead on.

Mine was also. I think Randy said everyone was pretty much dead on.......

oops just noticed I was a little behind but am glad to hear the blue ones are dead on that's what I got.

Looks like 1.027(or 1.026) corresponds to 35ppt on mine.

I had the blue one also, and I was relived to find it was dead on.

 

[Duds]

I'll bring mine along.
