Description
Digital Abbe refractometer AR2008 enables digital measurement and display of refractive index and %Brix for laboratory quality control, formulation work and routine analytical checks. Designed as a classic Abbe-type instrument with modern digital readout, it supports clear numerical presentation of results instead of purely optical scale interpretation. The unit is suited to liquid samples where refractive index or soluble solids content expressed in Brix is required, supporting food, beverage, chemical and materials testing workflows. With a net weight of 5 kg and a gross weight of 6,3 kg, the instrument offers a stable benchtop footprint for daily laboratory use. Scaling is oriented to Brix, while refractive index remains available as a core optical parameter. Originating from Germany and supplied as a single complete unit, this digital Abbe refractometer from manufacturer Krüss integrates into standard laboratory setups for concentration monitoring, incoming goods inspection and process verification. The digital display helps reduce reading ambiguity and supports consistent documentation of measured values across operators and shifts.
This article is part of Refractometers & polarimeters, in Spectroscopy & photometry.

Questions about Digital Abbe refractometer
What is this article?
Digital Abbe refractometer is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Krüss 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?
