Product Information

Full details

The Laser Tools Optical Refractometer (5015) is an essential diagnostic tool for technicians and fleet managers who need to ensure AdBlue concentrations are within factory specifications for HGVs and light commercial vehicles. By measuring urea levels in the exhaust additive, it helps verify system health and minimize harmful NOx emissions. While it provides high-precision readings, users should note that it requires manual calibration and a clean, debris-free environment to ensure the most accurate results.

FAQs

Does this tool work on all AdBlue systems?

Yes, it is designed for all standard AdBlue urea concentration testing across various automotive platforms.

How often should I calibrate the refractometer?

It is recommended to check the calibration before each use or if the device has been subject to temperature fluctuations.

Can I use this for testing engine coolant?

No, this specific refractometer is calibrated for AdBlue/urea concentrations and will not provide accurate results for ethylene glycol or other coolants.

What is the purpose of the included screwdriver?

The screwdriver is for adjusting the internal calibration scale to ensure the device remains accurate over time.

Is the device battery-powered?

No, this is an optical device that relies on ambient light to provide readings, requiring no batteries or electrical power.

Troubleshooting

Blurred or difficult-to-read scale

Clean the prism and daylight plate with a soft, lint-free cloth and ensure the lens eyepiece is focused correctly.

Reading does not match expectations

Re-calibrate the unit using distilled water to ensure the baseline is correct before performing the test.

Visible air bubbles in the sample

Ensure a clean application using the dropper and gently close the daylight plate to spread the fluid evenly without trapping air.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides highly accurate measurements of urea concentration
  • Compact and lightweight for easy storage
  • Suitable for a wide range of HGVs and light commercial vehicles
  • Includes all necessary tools for calibration and fluid application

Cons

  • Requires manual calibration for absolute precision
  • Optical lens must be kept clean to maintain accuracy
  • Readings can be affected by ambient light conditions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the device, ensure you are in a well-lit area. Use the included precision screwdriver to adjust the calibration screw until the baseline is set against a known standard (typically distilled water). Regarding compatibility, this tool is designed specifically for AdBlue urea-based additives; avoid using it for testing coolants or battery electrolytes. For care, always clean the prism and the daylight plate with a soft, non-abrasive cloth after every use. Never submerge the device in water, and store it in a cool, dry place inside its protective case to prevent lens scratches.
