The process refractometer PRB21S (bypass) is connected to the process using hoses. This makes it possible to feed the sample through the measuring cell as a partial flow of the main process (bypass) – either by pumping or hydrostatic pressure – and to measure it without interruption. The PRB21S model is used in the chemical and petrochemical industries, in automotive and aircraft manufacturing as well as in the food, sugar and beverage industries and for wastewater monitoring.
Basic functions
- Measurement in refractive index, %Brix or a user-definable scale
- Automatic temperature compensation (%Brix and freely definable for customer-specific products)
- Integrated sensor for temperature monitoring
- Stainless steel measurement chamber and sample prism, made of scratch-resistant and chemical-resistant sapphire
- Cleaning via customer-side process cleaning sequences, CIP-capable
- For Process temperatures up to 60 °C
- Simple connection with process control system or PLC via serial or two-part potential-free current interface (0/4-20 mA)
- Interfaces: RS-232; additional RS-232 for display, 2x analog 0(4)-20 mA; relay input, 2x relay output

Standards and guidelines
- Thanks to flexible bypass integration, KRÜSS Optronic process refractometers can be seamlessly integrated into existing system structures and support efficient quality control in real time.
- For connectivity, 2 serial interfaces, 2 analog outputs (0/4-20 mA), a switch input, 2 switch outputs and a LAN connection are available. Integration into process control systems is straightforward using established industry protocols. An optional display enables local operation, status display and fast process control – ideal for modern Industry 4.0 applications.
- CIP (clean-in-place) process cleaning guarantees high process reliability thanks to standardized processes and reproducible hygiene quality, which is very important in the food industry, for example.
- In industrial processes in particular, it is important to know which guidelines and standards apply in order to ensure best practice, traceability and good manufacturing practice (GMP). For your information, we have compiled an overview of important standards for refractometer measurements.
