OsmoTouch 20 Osmometer with 20-place autosampler

OsmoTouch 20 Osmometer - 2026 Version

OsmoTouch 20 is an automatic osmometer with a 20-place carrusel-based autosampler for the rapid determination of the cryoscopic point variation (osmolality) in biological fluids, pharmaceutical samples and other solutions.

This next generation osmometer includes a lot of useful features that the most recent technology allows: a full colour 7” touchscreen display, real-time visualization of the freezing curve, stable memory for more than 4,000 results, a PC software for data handling, USB ports for downloading all data to a pen drive, updating the firmware and connecting an optional barcode/QR-code reader, and much more. In particular, its new version has added a new graphic interface, the possibility to create custom test reports and features in compliance to FDA CFR 21 Part 11 norm and GLP. Furthermore, its Ethernet (LAN) port for a remote diagnosis and the direct connection to a LIMS is a useful and powerful tool to improve the laboratory data flow and minimize all possible downtimes.

Compact and sturdy, OsmoTouch 20 can work with room temperatures up to 36°C. It is perfect for pharmaceutical/cosmetic/homeopathic applications and for uses in hospitals and R&D laboratories. Excellent for analysis of semiviscous samples, including gels based on hyaluronic acid.

New functions, great advantages:

New graphic interface: very high touch-screen resolution and highly user-friendly firmware
Real-time graph of the sample temperature during each analysis
A 20-digit alphanumeric ID code can be added to each sample, easily
