YSI has introduced the Reichert Arias Optimatrix 500 refractometer, which allows operators to place the shadow line anywhere in the field of view of the cross hair.
With Optimatrix dual-array sensors, every operator, regardless of visual accuity or exacting control of the handwheel, can achieve the same measurement results.
Difficult samples that do not provide a sharp and distinct shadow line is measured with Optimatrix accuracy, and not the human eye.
The Reichert Optimatrix 500 refractometer offers manual and automatic operation.
This allows the operator to interact with the refractometer and place the shadow line into the target.
In this case, the target is not a small area created at the intersection of the cross hair; the target is the cross hair itself.
The refractometer then measures the sample using its dual-array sensors.
With the Arias Optimatrix 500, users can obtain accurate and consistent measurements with a transmission-style refractometer.
