Novex Abbe refractometer — Euromex high-precision instrument for Brix and refractive-index measurement

The Novex Abbe refractometer is a compact laboratory instrument for precise determination of sugar concentration and refractive index in liquids, and for characterisation of transparent materials

• High-precision 0–95 Brix and 1.300–1.700 nD
• Accuracy ±0.0002 nD and ±0.1 % Brix
• Water-bath connections for temperature control
• Incl. carrying case and calibration accessories

Reliable results through laboratory-grade accuracy

The Novex instrument delivers repeatable measurements across a wide range, with a measurement range of 0–95 Brix and 1.300–1.700 refractive index (nD). The combination of fine scale division and proven accuracy — ±0.0002 nD and ±0.1 % Brix — makes it suitable for quality control in food, beverage and materials laboratories where small deviations matter. Built-in water bath connections allow temperature stabilisation during measurement, reducing thermal variation and ensuring that the reported refractive index corresponds to standardised conditions. Clear numerical values support traceable decisions and help avoid costly rework.

Designed for testing liquids and transparent materials with confidence

Beyond saccharimetric determinations, the device supports determination of refractive index for glass and plastic films, permitting material verification and incoming-inspection routines. The optical measurement principle provides a non-destructive test method that is faster than many wet-chemical alternatives and delivers immediate results for production control. A concise measurement range and tight precision make the unit a pragmatic choice where both routine screening and occasional detailed checks are required, helping to streamline inspection workflows without sacrificing reliability.

Ready-to-use accessories for efficient laboratory operation

The supplied kit reduces setup time and supports routine calibration: transportable in a carrying case, the instrument arrives with a digital thermometer, calibration plate, adjustment tool and 0.5 ml calibration fluid. These inclusions enable prompt verification of instrument performance and simplify daily checks, improving uptime. Calibrated measurement with the included plate maintains result consistency between shifts, while the compact case supports mobile testing across production lines or different lab benches, increasing operational flexibility.

Peripherals, traceability and procurement advantages

For best optical illumination the cold-light source LE.5209 is recommended as a peripheral; pairing with a rated light source improves contrast and reading stability for low-contrast samples. Comprehensive documentation of ranges and accuracies supports traceability for audit purposes and establishes a clear acceptance criterion for quality control plans. Sourcing through Metav Werkzeuge benefits from consolidated logistics and a European quality filter in Emmerich, where inventory and product expertise reduce lead times and provide a single point for technical clarification.

FAQ

How precise are the measurements with this Abbe refractometer?
The Novex Abbe refractometer (SKU 98.490) provides high precision with stated accuracies of ±0.0002 nD for refractive index and ±0.1 % Brix for sugar concentration, enabling consistent quality-control decisions.

Can the instrument measure materials other than liquids?
Yes, the device supports determination of refractive index for glass and plastic films, permitting non-destructive testing of transparent substrates in addition to standard liquid analyses.

Is temperature control required for reliable readings?
Temperature stability is important; the unit includes water-bath connections so samples can be held at a defined temperature, minimising thermal drift and ensuring measurements conform to reference conditions.

What is included in the delivery for immediate use?
Delivery contains a carrying case, a digital thermometer, a calibration plate, an adjustment tool and 0.5 ml calibration fluid, enabling prompt calibration and portable operation straight from receipt.

Is additional illumination recommended for low-contrast samples?
A cold-light source such as LE.5209 is recommended to improve contrast and reading stability for challenging samples; this accessory complements the instrument’s optical path for clearer observations.
