  • Page 99: Appendix A: Principle Of Measurement

    M212898EN-C Appendix A. Principle of measurement The Vaisala K‑PATENTSâ inline process refractometer determines the refractive index (RI) of the process solution. It measures the critical angle of refraction using a yellow LED light source with the same wavelength (589 nm) as the sodium D line. Light from the light source (L) in the following figure is directed to the interface between the prism (P) and the process medium (S).

  • Page 100: Figure 31 Optical Images

    Appendix A – Principle of measurement The refractive index changes with the process solution concentration and temperature. For most solutions the refractive index increases when the concentration increases. At higher temperatures the refractive index is smaller than at lower temperatures. From this follows that the optical image changes with the process solution concentration as shown in the following figure.

    PR53 Series User Guide M212898EN-C Appendix B. Analyzing optical image The optical image can tell you about problems, for example, with the condition of the prism. Y-axis is light intensity and X-axis the position of the shadow edge. RI calibration follows the X- axis.
