Abbe refractometer 2WAJ

opticallaboratoryfor the sugar industry

This instrument measures the refractive index and mean dispersion values of transparent and translucent liquids or solids. Refractive indices and mean dispersions are important optical constants of a substance and can be used to determine the optical performance, purity, concentration and dispersion etc. Therefore, the refractometer is an indispensable tool within a wide range of industries, such as petrological, pharmaceutical, chemical and sugar making industries, as well as in factories, colleges and in research institutes. Main prism: Horizontal Secondary prism: Fitted on a hinge Refraction index scale: Nd 1.300 – 1.700 Precision: Nd ± 0.0003 Division: Nd 0.0005 Sugars scale: 0-95% from Nd 1.300 – 1.530 Precision: 0-50% = 0.2%; 51-95% = 0.1% Division: 0,25% Thermometer scale: 0°C – 70°C, div. 1°C Weight: 4 Kg Size: 140 x 100 x 235 mm
