Automated Refractometry Measurement
Save time and reduce costs with Mettler Toledo‘s seamless automated refractometry measurement solutions for a variety of industries, including the pharmaceutical, chemical, petro-chemical and the beverage industry. Automated refractometers minimise the need for operator interaction with the instrument and ensure higher results reliability and fewer errors.
Automated Refractometry Measurement overview
- Superior sampling: Using pressurized air instead of suction enables reliable sampling of highly viscous samples (up to 36’000 mPa*s) and prevents bubble formation.
- Simple and efficient cleaning: The measurement cell is automatically rinsed with one or two different solutions and allows for complete drying using the desiccator after measurements.
- Sample protection: Vials can be sealed and opened just before the actual measurement, so avoiding evaporation and contamination.
InMotion Autosampler Flex – for similar samples
The perfect automation refractometers for the beverage industry. Run multiple samples with low viscosities using a customized workflow:
- Multiple samples (15 to 303)
- Large choice of beaker sizes (25 to 250 mL)
- Rinsing with next sample
- Additional pH measurement possible in the same beaker
- Sedimentation of sample prevented by homogenizing with a stirrer
- Degassing of carbonated beverages with a combination of air flow and stirrer
- Final rinsing and testing with water
Sample Changer SC1 – single sample automation
Tired of using a syringe? Run fully automated refractive index measurements for any type of sample, saving time and improving the repeatability of your results. Automatic rinsing and drying ensure contamination-free operations.
- Single samples, even viscous ones (max. 36,000 mPas)
- Automatic sampling (pressurized air)
- Automatic rinsing with 2 solutions
- Automatic drying with desiccator
- Small sample volume (6, 9 or 20 mL)
- Sample recovery in cases where the sample must be retained as a reference sample
Sample Changer SC30 – multiple samples automation
Run a series of samples, automatically.
- Up to 30 samples, even highly viscous ones (max. 36,000 mPas)
- Automatic sampling (pressurized air)
- Automatic rinsing with 2 solutions
- Automatic drying with desiccator
- Small sample volume (6, 9 or 20 mL)
- Sample recovery in cases where the sample must be retained as a reference sample
