  2. Refractometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractometer

    Gemstone refractometers are available both as classic optical instruments and as electronic measurement devices with a digital display. [3] In marine aquarium keeping, a refractometer is used to measure the salinity and specific gravity of the water. In the automobile industry, a refractometer is used to measure the coolant concentration.

  3. Abbe refractometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abbe_refractometer

    Ernst Abbe(1840–1905), working for Carl Zeiss AGin Jena, Germany in the late 19th century, was the first to develop a laboratory refractometer. These first instruments had built-in thermometers and required circulating water to control instrument and fluid temperatures. They also had adjustments for eliminating the effects of dispersionand ...

  4. Digital handheld refractometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_handheld_refractometer

    A digital handheld refractometer is an instrument for measuring the refractive index of materials. Principle of operation. Most operate on the same general critical angle principle as a traditional handheld refractometer. The difference is that light from an LED light source is focused on the underside or a prism element.

  5. Traditional handheld refractometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traditional_handheld...

    A traditional handheld refractometer is an analog instrument for measuring a liquid's refractive index. It works on the critical angle principle by which lenses and prisms project a shadow line onto a small glass reticle inside the instrument, which is then viewed by the user through a magnifying eyepiece. In use, a sample is placed between a ...

  6. Hydrometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrometer

    The depth is read off the scale A. A hydrometer or lactometer is an instrument used for measuring density or relative density of liquids based on the concept of buoyancy. They are typically calibrated and graduated with one or more scales such as specific gravity . A hydrometer usually consists of a sealed hollow glass tube with a wider bottom ...

    A handheld refractometer used to measure the sugar content of fruits This type of device is commonly used in chemical laboratories for identification of substances and for quality control . Handheld variants are used in agriculture by, e.g., wine makers to determine sugar content in grape juice, and inline process refractometers are used in, e ...

  8. Refractometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractometry

    Refractometry is the analytical method of measuring substances' refractive index (one of their fundamental physical properties) in order to, for instance, assess their composition or purity. A refractometer is the instrument used to measure refractive index ("RI"). Although refractometers are best known for measuring liquids, they are also used ...

  9. Inline process refractometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inline_process_refractometer

    Inline process refractometers are a type of refractometer designed for the continuous measurement of a fluid flowing through a pipe or inside a tank. First patented by Carl A. Vossberg Jr. US2807976A - Refractometer US2549402A, these refractometers typically consist of a sensor , placed inline with the fluid flow, coupled to a control box.
