Rudolph Research's J257 is designed as a multipurpose automatic refractometer for a broad range of (RI) refractive index measurement applications. Many laboratories need the versatility of a wide range refractometer as they measure many varied samples. The J257 measures the widest possible range of Refractive Index from 1.26 to 1.72 RI, which means that this instrument can measure many materials that a refractometer with only a food refractive index range of 1.33-1.53 cannot.
The J257 is suitable for the measurement of pharmaceutical, chemical, petroleum products and flavor.

Smart Measure: The J257 model Series know when a sample is loaded on the prism and will read automatically. The instrument will not read if the prism is not cleaned properly.
Improve your Process with Trend Analysis: Trend Analysis allows you to save a measurement into a method history to track long term stability of your unique methods.
Embedded Windows 7 Operating System for Complete Communication Flexibility: Direct connection to LIMS or Server, save data in PDF or Excel files. No PC needed. No other brand offers the flexibility of an Embedded Windows 7 Operating System.
Flat Easy To Clean Prism: The flat easy to clean prism is a Rudolph trademark. Sticky, difficult to clean or acidic samples are no problem with Rudolph's optional Hastelloy dish.
