MISCO Palm Abbe™ Digital Refractometer
Laboratory Precision in the Palm of Your Hand!
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
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

Yellow Bellied Sump Sucker™ Li'l Sucker™
The Li'l Sucker™ is the newest addition to the Yellow Bellied Sump Sucker™ line of sump cleaning vacuums. Based on extensive customer research and extended field trial experience, customers were able to tell us what they liked, disliked, felt had no value, and would change in the previous designs. The result was the Yellow Bellied Sump Sucker that customers designed. It is durable, highly maneuverable, easy to use, and provides exceptional suction and discharge flow rates.
Removes the coolant, sludge, and chips from the sump
Filters the sludge and chips from the fluid
Returns filtered coolant to the machine tool sump, or
Transports the coolant to waste treatment for disposal, or to a XYBEX Recycling System for recycling
