Precision Systems Osmette™ A Osmometer

Description

Automatic digital osmometers measure osmolality in mOsm/kg H₂O. Osmette A Osmometer uses the freezing point depression method to provide a quick, accurate indication of total concentration. Instruments measure freezing points of solutions to 0.001°C, then directly translate them to measure of concentration.

Easy to Use

• Add sample tube to well, lower operating head to insert wire and thermistor temperature probe into the sample
• Freezing point is detected by the probe, with accuracy of ±0.001°C
• Digital display shows results directly in mOsm/kg H₂O
• Entire cycle takes between one-half and one minute per sample

Speedy and convenient

• Fast cooldown, completely zero-stable meter
• Reach operating temperature in <15 min. vs. 40 to 60 min. for other cryoscopic devices
• Eliminate Dewar flasks, ice baths, calculations
• Generate precise results in just 50 to 70 sec.; process 40 to 60 samples per hour
• Minimal training; simple two-step calibration takes less than five minutes
• All models hold calibration, eliminating daily calibration
