Simple and rapid measurement of osmolality in body fluids, plant material and aqueous samples is provided by the Type 15 micro digital osmometer from Camlab
The simple-to-use instrument, which handles small sample volumes of 50ul, provides the user a graphic display with menu led operation and error messages with six selectable languages.
The simple to calibrate system allows precise measurements to be taken in just 90 seconds across a wide linear range.
The Loser Micro-Digital Osmometer type 15 is suitable for use in a number of application areas including consumer healthcare, contact lens manufacturing, pharmaceutical and biotechnology.
The instrument is ideal for testing contact lens fluids, kidney function testing as well as for testing nutrient solutions in plant sciences.
The osmometer offers integrated sample identification that enables every measurement to have an identification number of up to 17 characters or numbers (maybe a patient or case number).
Input is possible with the keyboard or a connected barcode scanner.
The instrument adds date and time to the identification number and stores it with the measuring value to document the last 100 measurements and calibrations.
A helpful feature for research applications is that the instrument has been designed to switch the measuring values from mosm/kg H2O for the concentration to mC for the direct temperature of the sample.
Other key features of the osmometer include a cleaning function for the freezing needle, automatic defrosting of the sample slot and the unit's low power consumption.
