Available Models
The AUTOPOL I Automatic Polarimeter is Rudolph’s single wave length model with an accuracy of ±0.02 Degrees Optical Rotation. This accuracy is fine for food and educational applications where budget is critical but state of the art quality is still important. Suitable for Non-USP or high concentration Pharmaceutical raw materials measurements.
Key Features
- 0.01° Arc Accuracy.
- 589nm fixed wavelength.
- Built in thermoprobe for temperature measurement.
- Windows Embedded OS for direct connection to the network server and flexible USB Printing.
The AUTOPOL II Automatic Polarimeter is a general-purpose polarimeter with ±0.01 Degrees Optical Rotation accuracy. This accuracy is applicable for food, university education, many chemical, flavor and fragrance applications, as well as pharmaceutical inspection in some countries.
Key Features
- 0.01° Arc Accuracy.
- 589nm and 546nm wavelengths. (A total of 2-4 wavelengths may be ordered initially or as needed)
- Built in thermoprobe for temperature measurement.
- Windows Embedded for direct connection to the network server and flexible USB Printing.
The AUTOPOL III Automatic Polarimeter is Rudolph’s two wavelegnth pharmaceutical and research grade instrument which has a ±0.002 Degrees Optical Rotation accuracy for rotations up to 1° Arc. This polarimeter comes standard with two wavelengths: 589nm and 546nm and will pass an FDA inspection with the appropriate water bath to control temperature or with optional Temptrol™ Electronic Heating and Cooling. IQOQ documentation is included with the instrument.
