Pharmaceutical Polarimeter |
AUTOPOL® V Plus
The AUTOPOL V PLUS Automatic Polarimeter is Rudolph’s top of the line six wavelength instrument. Its specifically designed with the input of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies. This unit comes standard with 21CFR11 software. It also comes with Rudolph’s Patented TempTrol™ System. Therefore, it electronically heats and cools the sample to a specified temperature without the use of water circulation. This unit includes all wavelengths necessary to measure 99% of all monographs found in the USP, EP, JP and BP. In addition, IQOQ (Installation Quality Operation Quality) documentation is included with the instrument.

Simply the Best

Full Compliance
21CFR Part 11
The Autopol® V 21CFR Part 11 software module is easily enabled through the user-friendly touch screen. This module gives you full compliance with:
Multiple
Wavelengths
The AUTOPOL® V Automatic Digital Polarimeter comes standard with six wavelengths: 365nm, 405nm, 436nm, 546nm, 589nm, 633nm. Wavelength selection is completely automatic and is accomplished by the push of a button. There are no lamps or filters to manually remove or insert.
The tungsten-halogen lamp employed in the AUTOPOL® V Polarimeter is a compact, reliable, low-cost, high-intensity light source that allows any desired wavelength in the visible spectrum to be selected by means of a narrow band multilayer interference filter. The AUTOPOL® standard 10nm bandwidth is specified to permit high energy throughput and sensitivity for sample transmittances of only 0.01 % (O. D. = 4), while minimizing the effects of sample ORD and color.
Temperature
Display and Correction
The AUTOPOL® IV Automatic Essential Oils Polarimeter comes standard with a temperature probe which can be inserted into the Polarimeter cell as shown to the left. The temperature of either the sample compartment or the solution itself can be continuously displayed.

Print Format
Format
Numerous parameters, such as sample name, tube length, concentration, wavelength, time and date, temperature correction and statistics can be printed after each polarimeter measurement or after a group of measurements. This is accomplished by designating the required parameters, via menu entry, during the print format setup mode. A sample printout is shown below.
