Abbe 5 Optical Refractometer
A Wide Measuring Range
The Abbe 5 optical refractometer is an affordable bench-top instrument perfectly suited for users requiring a wide measurement range of Refractive Index. Customers that use an Abbe 5 are often based in smaller contract laboratories or use them for applications where sample throughput is relatively low. The instrument is also perfect for practical demonstrations and experiments in chemistry and physics laboratories of schools, colleges and universities.
Description
Abbe 5 Optical Refractometer
The Abbe refractometer derives its name from the 19th Century physicist and father of modern optical technology, Ernst Abbe (1840- 1905). He was the co-founder of the Carl Zeiss Jena Optical Company and Schott Glasswerk. Abbe designed an instrument for measuring dispersion which became the precursor for a refractometer – the Abbe Refractometer.
