Description
Digital refractometer KERN ORM 50BM is a precise, universal and maintenance-free digital handheld refractometer for refractive index measurement in general laboratory and process settings. Easy to operate and robust, its compact form supports comfortable, rapid everyday use. A large, clearly readable display with integrated temperature indication helps the user determine measured values securely. Automatic temperature compensation (ATC) allows simple, fast working without manual conversion of results, and calibration is performed quickly with ordinary distilled water whenever required. Mean value measurements are supported. The KERN ORM series instruments are protected to IP65 against dust and splash water and can be rinsed under running water after use. Scope of delivery comprises prism cover, pipette, storage box, one AAA battery and operating instructions. This model from manufacturer Kern is especially suited to basic measurements where results are needed in Brix or refractive index, for sugar determination in foods or for industrial process monitoring such as coolants and water-based mixtures. Key fields include industry process and quality control, lubricant monitoring, food and beverage production, fruit ripeness checks at harvest, and restaurant or large-kitchen use.
This article is part of Refractometers & polarimeters, in Spectroscopy & photometry.

Questions about Digital Refractometer KERN ORM 50BM
What is this article?
Digital Refractometer KERN ORM 50BM is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Kern for laboratory use. It sits in Refractometers & polarimeters, inside Spectroscopy & photometry, in Lab instruments.
A refractometer reads the refractive index of a liquid, often expressed as Brix for sugar. A polarimeter reads the rotation of polarised light. Both depend on temperature. A handheld refractometer and a thermostated benchtop instrument are different accuracies.
A photometer or spectrophotometer sends light through a sample and reads how much was absorbed. In the range where the Beer–Lambert relation holds, absorbance tracks concentration. A refractometer reads how a liquid bends light, which tracks dissolved solids. A polarimeter reads the rotation of polarised light, the classical measurement for sugars. The lamp, the wavelength and the cuvette path length are the three things that have to be right before the number means anything. The optical quantities trace to NIST and the BIPM.
Which category should I open next?
