The Polartronic H532 automatic polarimeter from Schmidt and Haensch can be used for quality control of original, intermediate and final products; and purity control and substance concentration.
Other applications include: analysis of sugar and albumin in urine, hormone, enzymology and toxicology research, purity control and identity of essential oils, organic fluids and inorganic ions, and analysis of optically active compounds The H532 comes with five optical wavelengths, features an accuracy of +/-0.002deg and achieves the same level of accuracy across the full measurement range of +/-89deg.
Polarimeters determine the optical activity of a solution by means of a rotating analyser and an optical encoder.
Polartronic automatic polarimeters make use of a direct, electronic interface between the analyser and the optical encoder.
This technique allows for speed in measurements and consistent accuracy across the entire measuring range.
The H532 automatic polarimeter has optical wavelengths at 365, 435, 546, 578 and 589nm.
Additional custom wavelengths are available on request.
The H532 polarimeter comes standard with mercury and sodium light sources, a menu-driven backlit LCD display, password protection and printer, serial and USB ports.
