Exclusive, world-class precision in a dual-array system
The Arias OptiMatrix™ 500 is the world's first transmitted light refractometer with precision comparable to high-end automatic reflected light refractometers.
This dual-array, automatic refractometer eliminates the need for shadowline intersect interpretation and delivers consistently repeatable results. The Arias OptiMatrix™ 500 compensates for temperature and delivers the results on an easy-to-read digital display.
