Description
Abbe refractometer KERN ORT 1RS is a laboratory instrument for refractive-index determination in analytical, teaching and quality-control settings. Classed among refractometers, it provides a dedicated Abbe-type platform for routine optical measurements on a standard laboratory bench. External dimensions of 380 mm width, 265 mm depth and 160 mm height give a compact, stable footprint that integrates easily into existing workspaces. Net weight is 1,8 kg and gross weight 2,4 kg, so the unit remains manageable during setup while staying steady in daily use. The instrument is supplied as 1 pc and comes from manufacturer Kern as a complete Abbe refractometer package. Delivery is scheduled from the beginning of May 2026. Its practical size and solid mass support clear placement beside sample preparation areas, balances or other optical equipment. Designed for professional environments rather than private households, the refractometer suits schools, training laboratories and industrial laboratories that require a straightforward Abbe configuration without complex system assembly. Overall proportions and weight data help planners allocate bench space and packaging logistics with confidence.

Questions about Abbe Refractometer KERN ORT 1RS
What is this article?
Abbe Refractometer KERN ORT 1RS is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KERN for laboratory use. It sits in Refractometers & polarimeters, inside Spectroscopy & photometry, in Instruments de laboratoire.
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?
