2.0 INTRODUCTION
This refractometer is a scientific precision instrument designed to last for many years with a minimum
of maintenance. It is built to high optical and mechanical standards and to withstand daily use.
The instrument serves for measuring the refractive indices, nD, and mean dispersion values, nF-nC,
of transparent and translucent liquids or solids. Attaching a thermostat to this instrument, the refrac-
tive indices, nD, within the range of temperature 0-70°C can be measured.
Refractive indices and mean dispersions are important optical constants of a substance and can
be used to determine the optical performance, purity, concentration and dispersion etc. Therefore,
the refractometer is an indispensable tool within a wide range of industries, such as petrological,
pharmaceutical, chemical and sugar making industries, as well as in factories, colleges and within
research institutes.
Optika reminds you that this manual contains important information on safety and maintenance, and
that it must therefore be made accessible to the instrument users. Optika declines any responsibility
deriving from instrument uses that do not comply with this manual.
