Measure your sample with just one click, print out and sign the results, and directly insert into your laboratory book – it’s that simple and leaves no room for transcription errors. All three automatic benchtop refractometers are suitable for liquids, viscous or solid substances, and turbid solutions. No training is needed; efficient use by all staff members is possible.

Proven Peltier Temperature Control for all of our Benchtop Refractometers

Precise temperature measurement and control are prerequisites for accurate refractive index measurements. The patented T-Check system that is used for each device before it is delivered ensures surface temperature measurement and control accuracy of your automatic benchtop refractometer of up to ±0.03 °C.

• Traceable temperature check and adjustment
• Most precise prism-surface temperature measurement
• Prevention of temperature-induced errors

Fast Concentration Measurements

Speeding up of concentration measurements of binary solutions due to a simplified user interface and predefined methods.

• Refractive index and Brix measurements
• Eight additional methods (exchangeable)
• Short cycle times down to 10 seconds to measure and document results
• Low sample volume of 70 µL

Scratch-Proof Sapphire Prism for Long-Term Precise Results

The sapphire prism each benchtop refractometer is equipped with guarantees the most precise results throughout the entire instrument lifetime.

• Resists cleaning with spatula or other lab tools
• Mohs hardness of 9, close to diamond-grade
• Backed by a 25-year warranty on the prism

Easy Printing and Documentation of Results

The Abbemat Essential benchtop refractometers simplify results documentation with their optional label printer, allowing for fast and reliable printouts. This eliminates the need for manual data copying, reducing the risk of transcription errors, and ensuring that all recorded measurements are accurate and traceable.
