Polarimeter Kruss P3000

Instrument description:
This digital, fully automated polarimeter allows you to measure the rotation of the plane of polarized light as it passes through a solution of optically active substance with an accuracy of up to ±0.01°.

Key Features:

  • measurements are fully automatic and very fast; the result is readable within a second
  • also suitable for measuring substances with low light transmission up to an optical density of 3.0 OD
  • measurements of solutions can be carried out in tubes with a length of 10 cm (with volumes of 1 ml or 6 ml) and a length of 20 cm (with a volume of 12 ml)
  • results can be read in units of angle of repose or in the ICUMSA sugar scale (°Z)
  • reliable temperature compensation allows measurement at any temperature and obtains a value converted to 20 °C
  • measurement accuracy to 2 decimal places, excellent measurement reproducibility
  • Measurement range: ±90° (±259°Z); Resolution: ±0.01°, (±0.01°Z); Accuracy: ±0.01°, (±0.01°Z); Light source: 589 nm filter LED
