“The PAL sets the stage for the world of refractometry in the 21^st century.”

A new ergonomic design for comfort and ease of use!

In pursuit of and “easy to use”, “easy to operate” and ergonomic architecture of new instruments.

ATAGO has achieved a “palm-fitting” masterpiece as well as a unit that is high in hygienic properties.

By reducing  the number of unnecessary assembly parts, we have reduced the risks of a germ

reproductive environment. Through our efforts to produce a hygienic instrument to be used in any

industry, these units are designed to be completely washable. The new Pocket PAL series has been

approved by the HACCP, and are equipped with the new ELI feature, which ensures accurate

measurements- even outdoors. Requests from our customers worldwide are reflected in the development

of the new PAL units.
