Combined Density – Refractive Index instruments

Many users need to measure both refractive index and density and feel that a combined system will be a good alternative. The advantages of such a system are many:

• Since parts are shared the total cost of the system may be less.
• There may be less operator time needed to load and clean the system.
• Many laboratories combine the density and refractive index results and use them to calculate a third parameter. Having both results exported into the same file makes the calculations easier.

This system is the optic module from a Rudolph Refractometer attached to a Rudolph Density Meter. The user loads and cleans each measurement system exactly the same way they do with two separate instruments.
