Solarus
solarus-front1

solarus®, die weltweit erste Digitalbürette mit eingebauter Solarzelle setzt Maßstäbe. Die Energieversorgung der Elektronik und des Displays erfolgt ausschließlich über eine integrierte Solarzelle. Auf Batterie oder Akku kann vollständig verzichtet werden.

Leicht austauschbare Ventile, individuelle Kalibrierung mit „Quick-Cal“ und die dauerhaft gespeicherte Werkskalibrierung machen solarus® schnell und flexibel anpassungsfähig. 
Die klare Digitalanzeige verhindert Meniskus-Ablesefehler und ist unabhängig vom Blickwinkel immer deutlich ablesbar. Die Handräder mit Softtouch-Oberfläche sind ergonomisch optimiert für besonders präzise Bedienung.
