Conformity with national and international standards
A big advantage of normalized measurements is the
comparability of the measurement results. Refractometers for specific
measuring tasks are recommended as suitable measuring instruments in
many international standards and guidelines. The requirements for the
measuring devices, such as measuring accuracy and measuring temperature,
are dependent on the respective measuring task and defined in each
standard. We have compiled for you an overview of all known standards
and guidelines, which refer to the refractometry.
