General purpose optical refractometer for RI & dispersion measurement. Our Abbe 5 refractometer offers affordable direct measurement of refractive index & Brix and is ideal for academia as well as within use in industry. The Abbe Refractometer derives its name from the 19th Century physicist Ernst Abbe (1840-1905). Abbe designed an instrument for measuring the dispersion of light and this became the precursor for the so-called ‘Abbe Refractometer’.
