French term or phrase: Installation inclinaison sonde par rapport à l’axe de la ligne de recirculation
on the subject of the installation of a refractive index meter. Looking for comments/help with my somewhat clumsy translation, which so far is:
'the angle at which the index meter is installed in relation to the alignment of the recirculation tube'

English translation:angle of index meter installation with respect to recirculation
Explanation:
alignment.
Just a suggestion, using your own words (you'd know more about the topic, I frankly took the "sonde" for a probe of sorts).

Installation of the refractive index meter in relation to the direction of the normal


Explanation:
Just an idea, but when measuring refactive index in a conventional way, the "normal": an axis at right angles to the surface at the point the light enters the refracting medium, is important.
