FAQs of Research Polarimeter:
Q: How is optical rotation measured using this research polarimeter?
A: Optical rotation is measured by placing the sample tube (200 mm length, 12 mm diameter) filled with the analyte into the device. The sodium lamp (589 nm) illuminates the sample, and the user manually adjusts the knob to align the polariscope on the dual scale, recording the rotation angle with 0.005 accuracy.
Q: What calibration process does the polarimeter utilize?
A: Calibration is performed using a quartz plate, as specified by the instruments design. This method ensures consistent accuracy and reliability. The process is manual and straightforward, allowing for quick recalibration between measurements.
Q: When should the polarimeter be recalibrated?
A: Recalibration should be conducted after changing samples, before starting a new set of analyses, or whenever the device is moved or cleaned. Regular calibration ensures precise results and maintains instrument integrity.
Q: Where can the research polarimeter be effectively utilized?
A: This device is ideal for analytical, scientific, and educational laboratories. It provides reliable performance in environments requiring precise optical rotation measurements, such as chemical, pharmaceutical, and food research facilities.
Q: What are the key benefits of using this polarimeter in laboratory research?
A: Benefits include high accuracy (0.005), durable stainless steel and optical glass construction, easy manual operation, and fast calibration. The anti-reflective lens and corrosion-resistant finish improve usability and lifespan, making it a valuable asset for research and analysis.
Q: What is the recommended power supply and voltage for operation?
