$Abbemat WR/MW, Multi wavelengt refractometer with PC$

Abbemat MW Multiwavelengths Refractometer

The Abbemat MW digital refractometer enables quick and fully automatic measurements of the refractive index at different measuring wavelengths, e. g. for dispersion and Abbe number determination. For these measurements Abbemat MW can be equipped with up to 8 different wavelengths in the range of 435 nm to 656 nm. This makes the Abbemat MW digital refractometer a versatile instrument for investigations into liquids, polymer bonds and glasses.

Key Features

Fully automatic spectral refractometry

Measurement of lenses made of plastic or glass, e.g. contact lenses, lenses for digital cameras
Quality control of glass and polymers in the production
Measurement of dispersion and Abbe numbers: V_D, V_d and V_e
Characterization of:
Liquid immersion oils for microscopes,
Acrylic glass, polaycarbonates, Cycloolefine oligomers

High performance – reliable results in seconds

Abbemat refractometers guarantee the highest stability and analytical performance
The built-in Peltier thermostats ensure the measuring temperature is reached in seconds
Optimal measurement of the sample temperature just under the prism surface
Simple cleaning and no sample carry-over due to the smooth transition between prism and sample holder

Flexible in use

As the refractometer and evaluation unit are separate, Abbemat refractometers can be adapted to suit your application
For operation under harsh conditions, the evaluation unit is placed a safe distance from the refractometer
The formula parser creates user-specific scales
