MISCO Palm Abbe™ Digital Refractometer

Laboratory Precision in the Palm of Your Hand!

MISCO Palm Abbe™ Digital Refractometer

The new Palm Abbe is a fourth-generation digital handheld refractometer that puts laboratory precision in the palm of your hand. Not just laboratory precision, but laboratory precision for the price of a traditional analog refractometer. It is exactly the kind of bold, cutting-edge technology you would expect from MISCO, the company that pioneered the digital handheld refractometer.

The Palm Abbe refractometer is fast, convenient, and easy to use. Simply place a drop or two of fluid in the titanium well and press a button. The custom-designed microprocessor delivers a nearly instantaneous readout in degrees Brix. Nonlinear temperature compensation is automatic and insures that fluids read between 0°C and 50°C (32°F to 122°F) are measured accurately.

The large LCD display is easily read, even in dim light, and removes the subjectivity associated with interpreting where a boundary line crosses tiny scale divisions. And, it is so easy to use! The user interface consists of two buttons, one to take readings and the other to step through various menu options.

Calibration is automatic and does not require the use of special calibration solutions, or tools. The Palm Abbe refractometer automatically calibrates itself to water and is ready to use in seconds. No more screws to turn and nothing to adjust.

    SCROUNGER™ Jr Oil Skimmer

    Effectively Remove Oil from Coolants and Washing Solutions

    SCROUNGER™ Jr Oil Skimmer

    Tramp oil is a major source of problems associated with water miscible cutting and grinding fluids.

    Tramp oil contributes to the growth and formation of:

    • coolant-destroying bacteria
    • undesirable residues on machine tools and workpieces
    • smoke and oil mist in shop atmospheres

    These problems result in:

    • shortened coolant life
    • poor material removal rates
    • poor surface finish and size control
    • decreased tool and wheel life

    Numerous devices ("floating ropes," wheels, and belts) have been developed over the years to remove "free floating" tramp oil from the surface of coolant. While they have all worked to one degree or another, they generally have been either "troublesome," high maintenance, relatively ineffective, or able to operate only on limited liquid level fluctuations.

    As a "belt-type" skimmer, these units are effective in removing floating oil from widely fluctuating liquid levels of coolants or parts washing solutions. The SCROUNGER features a revolutionary new oleophilic belt and a totally new concept of stripping the separated oil from the belt. The SCROUNGER Jr. uses the same "oil loving" belt, but uses a more compact scraper blade to strip the separated oil from the belt.

    Features

    • 115 volt, single phase, 50/60 Hz
    • heavy-duty, impedence-protected, fan-cooled drive motor with hardened shaft and needle bearings (220 volt, single phase, 50 Hz also available)
    • open, accessible oil-collecting tray with a convenient drain connector
    • "oil loving" oleophilic belt (purchased separately)
    • heavy-duty steel construction, with industrial-grade enamel paint

    Benefits

    • fast, simple belt changing
    • low maintenance
    • lower hang roller that will not fall off in the machine sump even in turbulent conditions

    Options

    • dewatering tray
    • portable kit
    • special length belts available on special order
    • special belt materials available for high temperature or pH applications on special order

    SCROUNGER Jr Belts

    • all belts 1" [25mm] wide
    • 24" [610mm]

        XYBEX™ ChipOut Plus™

        Magnetic Centrifugal Sludge & Chip Remover

        XYBEX™ ChipOut Plus™

        Looking for a fast, affordable way to have longer coolant life, reduce maintenance, and achieve better machinability and surface finish? Hardworking ChipOut Plus delivers all that and more in a compact, portable system that can hook up to machines throughout the shop.

        It does double time, as both a centrifugal and magnetic separator for water-based cutting fluids or neat oils. It’s simple to use, powerful, and efficient.

        First, the suction hose draws in the liquid and impurities. The filtration bucket traps large impurities before the sludge-containing fluid enters the centrifugal separator where fine particles are separated out by centrifugal force. The sludge then enters the powerful magnetic separator which efficiently removes magnetic metallic shavings and particles. Just like its name implies, it takes out chips - plus more!

        XYBEX™ PurifierPlus™

        Cutting Fluid Purifying System

        XYBEX™ PurifierPlus™

        The portable, cost-effective XYBEX PurifierPlus system pays for itself with material cost savings, reduced downtime and recycling costs. Not only does it enhance production and make the workplace cleaner, it also is better for employee health and the environment.

        Unlike units which simply separate machine tramp oil (the unwanted byproduct of the machining/metalworking process) from coolant, PurifierPlus has an ozone disinfection function which kills bacteria. Not only is the coolant cleaned and lasts longer, it’s purified and reused, and the subsequent problematic stench from bacteria and fungal growth is eliminated.

        Improve production, reduce costs, and experience a cleaner workplace with PurifierPlus.

          XYBEX PurifierPlus
          • Separates free tramp oil and extends coolant life
          • Reduces tool wear and costly parts rejects
          • Easy to use with a handy set-timer to operate on its own
          • Adjustable flow rate filter from 10 to 30 liters/hr
          • Kills bacteria (for best results run 1 hour for each 100 liters in sump; ozone function disinfects at 500 mg/hr)
          • Built-in pH detector (optional) adjusts pH to control range
          • Portable for use on multiple machines in the facility
          PurifierPlus quickly pays for itself in savings
          • Saves 10% to 25% on annual coolant cost
          • Saves 30% to 50% on additional water cost
