AUTOPOL III Automatic Polarimeter
Manufacturer: Rudolph Research Analytical
SKU: Inquire
Description
The AUTOPOL III Automatic Polarimeter is a dual-wavelength instrument offering pharmaceutical and research-grade accuracy with a user-friendly interface. It delivers high precision, with an accuracy of 0.002° Arc for readings up to 1°, 0.2% for values above 1°, and 0.01°Z for sugar analysis. It operates at 589 nm or 546 nm. The device measures optical rotation, specific rotation, concentration, and user-defined scales. A distinctive feature is its specialized temperature probe, which is coated with a micron-thick glass layer to resist corrosion from aggressive chemicals like high-molar hydrochloric acids. The simplified operation involves placing a sample cell in the chamber and pressing a measure key to obtain results rapidly. It generates cGLP/GMP-compliant printouts that include sample temperature data, catering to regulated laboratory environments.
