The VariRef combines proven SCHMIDT + HAENSCH technology with the modularity of the VariFamily, using double-isolated Peltier systems for fastest temperature control. Its flat, easy-to-clean sample room and multi-point calibration deliver highest precision throughout a virtually maintenance-free product life.
VariRef, the new laboratory refractometer, combines proven SCHMIDT + HAENSCH technology with the modularity of the VariFamily. The new double-isolated Peltier system allows fastest temperature control and reduces the influence of environment temperature, resulting in fast and precise measurements.
The VariRef has the well-established SCHMIDT + HAENSCH sample room. Its flat shape is ideal for easy cleaning, and a special covered version is available for hard-to-clean or hazardous materials, ensuring a long and proper product life. The LED light source and self-checking capabilities for cleanliness, environment temperature effects and calibration result in a virtually maintenance-free product life.
Used for purity investigations, sample recognition, dilution control and composition determination — particularly for characterisation of organic liquids or raw materials. Ideal for quality control and product consistency in food and beverage applications, including sugar content and beverage formulation.
