Refractometer, PCE-ABBE-REF2, PCE Instruments
With the Abbe refractometer you get a measuring device for fast and precise determination of the refractive index nD between 1.300 and 1.700. The Abbe refractometer also measures the sugar content of translucent liquids, dispersions, emulsions or other substances. Using the supplied thermometer, the refractive index can be determined for a temperature range of 0-+70 °C. In order to control the temperature of the device, adapters for water hoses are attached to both sides of the Abbe refractometer on the upper and lower prism holders, which allow temperature control by means of an external thermostat. With this Abbe refractometer you can e.g. carry out an exact determination of the sugar content in the range 0-95% (1.333-1.531). The area of application is much wider: measurement and analysis of fats, oils, paints, varnishes, foodstuffs, chemical substances, alcohol and solvents.
