The New Abbe Refractometer is a handy measuring instrument. The measuring Prism is rigid and the surface to take the substances to be measured is horizontal which prevents flowing down of the test liquid of the prism is one of the new features of ADVANCE Abbe Refractometer Model R-8. The Prism box is made of Stainless Steel and as such highly corrosive material can be tested without damaging the Prism Box. focussing of the boundary line of total reflection is effected on the same filed of view in which the reading is taken. Setting and Reading operation in the same-Eye-Pieces makes the work of the operator easy and efficient. The graduated Arc Scale made of glass lies well protected inside of the instrument with all other Optics. The compact design of the basic equipment facilitated the construction of a casing which, while permitting full utilization of its optical properties, afforded reliable and robust protection of all delicate parts against potential mechanical, thermal of chemical damage.

Highly Coloured samples and plastic Substances are measured in reflected light is another one of the many new features introduced indigenously for the first time.

In order to maintain a constant temperature for more accurate measurements, the Prism mounts of the Refractometer are equipped for circulation of water at constant temperature when connected to a Thermostatically Controlled Circulating bath.
