Test battery acid safer and more accurately. The MISCO digital refractometer is ideal for testing the sulfuric acid concentration, or specific gravity, in lead-acid batteries and backup power systems. Old traditional analog refractometers force you to bring dangerous battery acid up to your face and eyes to take a reading.
The concentration of sulfuric acid in a fully charged auto battery measures a specific gravity of 1.265 – 1.285. This is equivalent to a molar concentration of 4.5 – 6.0 M. 2,3 The cell potential (open circuit potential or battery voltage, OCV) is a result of the electrochemical reactions occurring at the cell electrode interfaces.
The MISCO digital refractometer is ideal for testing the specific gravity of sulfuric acid in lead-acid batteries and backup power systems. Test battery acid safer and more accurately. The MISCO digital refractometer is ideal for testing the sulfuric acid concentration, or specific gravity, in lead-acid batteries and backup power systems.
The influence of sulfuric acid concentration on negative plate performance has been studied on 12 V/32 Ah lead-acid batteries with three negative and four positive plates per cell, i.e. the negative active material limits battery capacity.
Measurement of sulfuric acid specific gravity is fast and easy with the MISCO digital refractometer. You need only a drop or two of battery acid for an accurate test. The refractometer is quick, convenient, and simple. Just place a drop or two of fluid in the stainless steel well and press a button.
Note: The maximum concentration of acid, 3.0M used here, is lower than the nominal concentrations, 4.5 – 6.0 M reported for auto batteries. The 3.0 M acid cell produces a potential above 2.0 volts, and is adequate for demonstrating our objectives.
