A saccharimeter measures the concentration of sugar in a solution making it an important instrument in food and beverage industries. Saccharimeters typically work by passing light through sugar in a solution and taking measurements of the sugar’s refractive index. While they have been around for quite some time, modern saccharimeters are automated and offer high degrees of accuracy not found in their earlier counterparts. Things to consider before purchasing include the types of sugars that can be measured, sample size, accuracy, and price.

Features and Benefits
For 0.01°Z accuracy sugar testing and payment for countries and applications where lead or other suitable clarifiers are still the norm. This model works at 589 nm and is not compliant with ICUMSA testing at 880 nm.
Rudolph does not use plastic polarizers on its less expensive models like other manufacturers do. Rudolph uses only Glan Thompson Calcite polarizers, which cost 10x more than plastic polarizers....
