UR24 - In-line process refractometer

The UR24 is a stand-alone digital refractometer built for straightforward in-line or in-tank installation, giving continuous, high-accuracy concentration readings in Brix, nD or % concentration. Its optical sensing element requires no recalibration after commissioning and is housed in an IP67-rated stainless-steel body suited to demanding industrial environments. A user-programmable scale and configurable analog or digital output make it easy to integrate into process control systems across food, chemical, textile and petrochemical applications.
