ADVANCE Manual Polarimeter (Standard Model: PA-1R)
The
ADVANCE PA-1R Standard Model is a robust and reliable manual polarimeter, engineered for accurate determination of optical rotation in educational and industrial laboratories. It is particularly well-suited for applications in the pharmaceutical, chemical, sugar, and food industries where precise, repeatable measurements are essential.
This model is distinguished by its highly sensitive
triple shadow eyepiece. This advanced optical system presents the user with three distinct fields of view, allowing for a more precise and strain-free determination of the balance point compared to simpler half-shade systems. This feature significantly improves the accuracy and repeatability of measurements.
The instrument features a full-circle
angular scale of 0-360°, which is read using a clear vernier scale. The precision-engraved scale and finely finished rotating mechanism allow for a readability (often referred to as accuracy) of
0.05°, ensuring high-quality results. The PA series is designed to accommodate sample tubes up to
220 mm in length, providing flexibility for analyzing samples of varying concentrations.
A key feature of this model is the
integrated lighting assembly, which houses the monochromatic light source within the instrument's base. This self-contained design saves valuable bench space, provides stable illumination, and eliminates the need for a separate transformer and lamp housing.
Key Features:
- Triple Shadow System: Offers a highly sensitive visual method for finding the balance point, ensuring greater accuracy and strain-free viewing.
- Full 360° Measurement Scale: The angular scale covers a complete 0-360° range, suitable for all types of optically active samples. ADVANCE Manual Polarimeter
- High-Resolution Vernier: The precision vernier provides a fine readability of 0.05°, allowing for accurate and direct readings of the rotation angle. ADVANCE Manual Polarimeter
- Integrated Lighting: The self-contained light source provides immediate, stable illumination in a compact, space-saving design.
- Large Sample Compartment: Designed to accept sample tubes up to 220 mm in length, making it versatile for various analytical needs. ADVANCE Manual Polarimeter
- Durable Construction: Built with a sturdy, all-metal body to ensure stability and long-term reliability in a laboratory environment.
