URX1 - Intrinsically safe process refractometer - Maselli Misure

The URX1 delivers precise concentration measurement across Food, Chemical, Textile, and Petrochemical applications with 1.8-second response time and configurable BRIX or USER-defined scales. Built for Zone 0 hazardous areas (ATEX II 1 G - EEx ia IIB T4), it integrates seamlessly into in-line, tank, or vessel installations. Withstands process pressures to 10 bar at ambient and 8 bar at 100°C—or up to 25 bar at elevated temperatures in the specialist version—plus sanitization cycles to 145°C.
