RXA 156/170

The RXA 156 and RXA 170 modules are equipped with a micro flow cell and an integrated Peltier thermostat ensuring accurate and automatic temperature control. Fast and non-destructive measurements, requiring only small sample volume, yield to refractive index (RI) and RI-derived results. Both RXA types can be used as a module in measuring systems.

All the advantages of modular design

  • Combination with a DMA 4100/4500/5000 M, DSA 5000 M or Soft Drink Analyzer M to a measuring system
  • DMA M, DSA M or Soft Drink Analyzer M serve as the control and evaluation unit of the system
  • The instruments can be used separately if required
  • For pasty or expensive samples, manual filling of the refractometer is possible
  • Simple adjustment of both instruments using air and water in one procedure
  • Automatic filling and cleaning of both instruments with an optional sample changer

One measuring cycle, two (three) sample parameters

  • Save time by simultaneously determining the density (and sound velocity) and refractive index
  • Fast and reliable results

Reliable measuring methods

  • Established U-tube method for measuring density
  • Highly accurate measurement of the angle of total reflection for determining the refractive index
