ATR-L Multi-wavelength refractometer

Digital multi-wavelength refractometer

This multi-wavelength refractometer capable of performing simple dispersion measurements at seven wavelengths across the entire visible spectrum. The digital, fully automatic spectral refractometer ATR L features a robust stainless steel measuring unit and a separate electronic control unit.

 

Features of the multi-wavelength refractometer

  • High-precision refractometer
  • Automatic dispersion measurement
  • Seven wavelengths fixed with full range of visible light
  • Automatic measurement of Abbe-number
  • Ideal for research and development
  • Measurement of solid samples possible
  • Able to discriminate ingredients with the same refractive index
  • Powerful, internal Peltier temperature control guaranties the fastest measurements with highest accuracy

 

Easy to use 

Only 0.3 mL of sample is required to achieve high-precision measurements.

A range of sample compartment lids makes it possible to measure both solid and liquid samples. The built-in Peltier thermostat (no external water bath necesasry) ensures precise sample temperature control.

Different combinations of customer-specified wavelengths are available.

 

Applications

  • Research and development labs, where the exact knowledge of material properties is of great importance
  • Medical research (plastic lenses, contact lenses)
  • Optical communication technology (polymer materials, special optical liquids, glasses and glues)
  • Fingerprinting characterization of high-quality products like wine, perfumes, alcoholic beverages, etc
  • Determining product purity, quality control of samples
  • Quality control of hydrophobic and hydrophilic intraocular lenses (IOL)
