Xylem's Bellingham + Stanley update the top selling RFM340 refractometer

Bellingham + Stanley launch new high precision, touchscreen, Peltier temperature controlled refractometers.

The RFM-T Series of high precision Peltier temperature controlled benchtop refractometers, featuring a wide measuring range up to 1.70 RI, precision to six decimal places RI (3 d.p.°Brix) and all-new 7" touchscreen user interface, are ideally suited for use in applications within the food, beverage, chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, flavours and fragrance industries as well as in academic research.

There are currently five models within the RFM-T Series, each addressing a particular application or measurement performance need. RFM900-T models cover the widest of measurement ranges and incorporate a Kalrez® prism gasket to protect the instrument from the harsh chemicals likely to be experienced at the upper end of its refractive index range. 

Additionally RFM900-T models have specific user Methods for the petrochemical industry including ASTM D 1218 (hydrocarbons) and ASTM D 2140 (carbon-type composition of electrical insulating oil) as well as PHR-MEAN Method used for statistical sampling in accordance with Pharmacopeia. The RFM990-AUS32 model satisfies the requirements of diesel exhaust fluid (AdBlue®) manufacturers in accordance with ISO 22241.

The latest introduction, the RFM300-T Series, are tailored more towards the food and beverage sector and feature a very flat prism dish for easy cleaning between viscous samples as well as a number of user methods including coffee total solids and citric acid offsets. The new RFM300-T Series compliments the existing range of RFM300+ Series instruments that have been adopted by many of the World's leading food, beverage and other industrial manufacturing brands.

The high definition touchscreen facilitates operation in many varied environments, and also serves as the centrepiece for the new software. Combined, the touchscreen and GUI help the operator quickly manoeuvre through the menus. On-screen graphical prompts support simple operation such as method loading, calibration and routine maintenance. 

The RFM T-Series refractometers are the perfect partner to the previously launched ADP600 series of Peltier temperature controlled polarimeters as they incorporate the same touchscreen display and menu structure, making the new instruments the perfect choice for busy laboratories requiring to measure high precision concentration and purity of optically active samples.
