3. General information
3.1  Intended use
The refractometer is a measuring instrument for determining the refractive index of 
transparent substances in the liquid or the solid state. It is used to observe the  
behaviour of light as it passes from a prism with known properties to the substance 
being tested.
Use of the refractometer for other purposes is contrary to its intended use and may 
be hazardous. The manufacturer shall not be liable for any damages caused  
by improper use.
3.2  Warranty
The warranty shall be void in the event of: 
▸ Failure to observe the instructions in the operating manual
▸ Use for purposes other than those described
▸ Modifications or opening the device housing
▸ Mechanical damage and/or damage resulting from media, liquids, 
natural wear and tear
4. Basic safety information
4.1 Follow the instructions in the operating manual
▸ Carefully read through the operating manual even if you have prior  
experience with KERN refractometers.
▸ Every language version includes a non-authoritative translation.
The original German document is the definitive version.
4.2 Warning
▸ Do not let acids come into contact with skin or eyes. If acid comes into contact 
with skin, flush with copious amounts of water. Shower if larger areas of skin are 
affected.
▸ If acid comes into contact with eyes, keep the eyelid open and flush the eye with 
running lukewarm water from the outer corner to the inner corner. Flush eyes for 
at least 15 minutes. Then consult a doctor or ophthalmologist immediately.
▸ Thoroughly clean the refractometer aer each use.
▸ The refractometer must not be exposed to extreme temperatures, high  
mechanical stresses, strong direct sunlight or high humidity.
▸ This refractometer is not a toy. Keep out of reach of children.
▸ Make sure that you will not be hit by anything else while you are using the  
refractometer, as this could cause serious eye injuries
▸ The rubber eyeshade may cause irritation when in prolonged contact with the 
skin. If this happens, consult your doctor.
▸ Do not touch the lenses with your fingers.
6. Before the first use
Remove the protective film 
(
if present
)
 from the prism surface 
[
2
]
 and check that 
the rubber eye-cup 
[
4
]
 is fitted correctly.
7. Use/measurement
The refractometer can be used to quickly and accurately determine the refractive 
index of transparent substances, liquid or solid ones. To ensure correct measure-
ment, the measuring device should be adjusted before measurements are carried 
out. Please make sure your hands are dry before handling the measuring device.
5. Supplied items
Aer unpacking and before using the device for the first time, check that all 
listed parts have been supplied. Replace damaged or faulty parts immediately 
and do not put them into operation.
▸ Refractometer
▸ Storage box
▸ Pipette
▸ Adjustment tool
▸ Cleaning cloth
▸   Calibration block + Contact liquid ( )Clove oil
!
6
Avoid bringing the supplied contact liquid (clove oil) into contact with the prism 
cover [1]. Even the smallest amounts of clove oil will damage the material of the 
cover and lead to its opacification.
Therefore, pay big attention to this aspect while carrying out the adjustment of the refractometer 
described below. 
If still there is accidentally contact between clove oil and the prism cover, it would not affect 
subsequent measurement operations even when high opacification occurs.
