A.KRÜSS Optronic P8000-PT digital polarimeters with Peltier temperature control
The fastest polarimeters in the world!

The digital polarimeters of the P8000 series feature an innovative measuring principle to measure optically active liquids. Our patented measuring technology works much faster than in conventional polarimeters, as it reduces measuring time to just one second, regardless of the rotation angle of the sample. In addition, it permits continuous measurement, for example for kinetic investigations or in HPLC use. All adjustments on the device are made via an easy to use touchscreen. An easy to understand help display can be called up at any time. With minimum effort, the user can carry out a simple menu-driven calibration using test quartz. The T-models of the P8000 series are equipped with thermostat interfaces and the delivery includes an external PT31 thermostat. The connection of a temperature-controlled gauge head permits extremely accurate measurement. The devices are intended for use in FDA-regulated sectors due to their GLP compliance, integrated user management and full network support, for simple connection to the laboratory environment and an LIMS. All internal data (measurement values, parameters and methods) are organised in an SQL database. This can be accessed externally using SQL queries through a fixed interface (e.g. LIMS). With KrüssLab software, the device can be controlled by PC remote mode, using the same intuitive layout as the touchscreen on the polarimeter. The PC stores measurement results as a local copy in the database, so your data is retained after the polarimeter is switched off. Various data filters allow you to send data in Excel or HTML to your printer or export it in PDF format.

Direct temp. control of the sample tube
Based on the reliable P8000 series, A. KRÜSS Optronic has developed a polarimeter with electronic tempera - ture control using a special tube. Peltier elements and a glass tube with unbreakable metal sleeve are just some of its special features. The good insulation and positioning of the Peltier elements gives verifiable homogeneous sample temperature, making it possible to omit the water bath thermostat otherwise required for precise measurements. The advantages are obvious: There is no thermostat to be readjusted and main- tained. The set-point temperature is entered directly on the touch-screen of the polarimeter and the device can automatically detect whether the tube has been connected. Of course, it is possible to use standard tubes without temperature control if the accuracy of a temperature-controlled sample is not required. In case the sample has been warmed up before, the time to bring it up to the right temperature can be considerably reduced thus utilizing the short measuring time of the P8000 - Series - approx. one second . The P8000 series is the fastest polarimeter in the world!
