Temperature Correction Table
For Refractometers Calibrated At 20°C (l=589nm)
Source: ICUMSA, 1974
As an alternative to recalibration of the refractometer due to ambient temperature changes, the following tempera-
ture correction table can be used. Ensuring that both the distilled water and the ambient temperature are both at
exactly 20°C, follow steps 2-7 under the CALIBRATION section on the preceding page. Once this is accomplished, if
ambient temperature changes, simply apply the temperature correction values listed below. For example, a reading
of Brix 40.0% at 25°C is corrected to Brix 40.4%; a reading of Brix 65.0% at 10°C is corrected to Brix 64.25%.
