    New Powerful Refractometers Measure Accurately, Quickly and Easily

    Reichert Technologies has announced the addition of two new refractometers to its line of analytical instruments: the AR9 Refractometer and the AR5 Refractometer. Accurate, reliable and tough enough for the most demanding applications, these new AR Series Refractometers measure a wide variety of fluids, ranging from sugar to pharmaceuticals, juices to engine coolant, and beer to chemicals.

    The top-of-the-line AR9 refractometer is exceptionally precise with measurement accuracies of 0.00002 refractive index (RI) and 0.02% Brix. With a built-in Peltier thermostat, the AR9 controls the temperature at the sample interface to an exactness of 0.03°C. The AR9 is resilient and durable for exceptional performance in all applications. Backed by Reichert’s well-established reputation for leadership and innovation in the analytical instruments industry, the AR9 offers the edge for important research and development projects and the ability to provide the mandatory data needed in the most critically regulated industries. The AR9 features a YAG (Yttrium Aluminium Garnet) prism, the hardest prism available, guaranteeing precise performance and resilience for years. The Universal Display, a 7” colour touchscreen, is included with the purchase of the AR9 refractometer.

    The economical AR5 refractometer includes Peltier temperature control, making sophisticated measuring technology available to users on a tight budget. The AR5 is precise, measuring refractive index and % Brix with results accurate to 0.0001 RI and 0.05% Brix. The AR5, which is the ideal instrument to perform routine measurements with standard scales, also can be configured for custom measurements. Its robust design resists surface damage caused by demanding applications. A sapphire prism ensures reliable operation and makes the AR5 a laboratory workhorse. High-end accuracy and a reasonable price give customers an exceptional advantage. The Universal Display can be purchased separately as an accessory for the AR5.

    An intuitive touchscreen on the Universal Display saves time by easily allowing the user to program settings and change methods. Through the Universal Display, the Reichert AR9 or AR5 operating systems (OS) are able to connect to Reichert’s other new instruments creating powerful analytical systems that simultaneously measure refractive index, density, and optical rotation.
