17 RFM300-Flow for Tare House Also great for fruit juice and carbonated beverage producers as a funnel flowcell reduces the need to clean the prism between each sample! 17

18 Making Measurement Easy 18

19 It s not that simple! Natural light is made up of light of different colour or wavelength (energy) RI depends on the wavelength of light RI also depends on temperature When defining RI, the wavelength and temperature are specified: 20 N N is the symbol for RI D 20 C D = sodium D line (589 nm) For air, For water, 20 N D = N = D 19

20 Control = Profitability (Case Study) 20
