KEM Alcohol Meter

The ALM-155 is a compact and high-performance benchtop density meter designed for the analysis of oenology products, spirits, and beer. This instrument offers a simple and affordable solution for determining alcohol content, density, and specific gravity with high accuracy. The ALM-155 utilizes an oscillating capillary tube method and features a Peltier thermostat system that maintains a precise temperature of 20°C/60°F for consistent measurements. The KEM ALM-155 is a valuable tool for small to medium-sized producers of alcoholic beverages seeking accurate, efficient, and cost-effective analysis. Its ease of use, small sample volume requirement, and automatic data logging features make it suitable for both laboratory and production environments.
 

Key Features
