Advanced Polarimeter with Light Source
AGN-156A
Salient Features :
Stand alone setup integrates the sodium lamp, power
supply and polarimeter in one unit.
Inbuilt reading magniier to read the circular scale.
Easy to take reading because the scale reading and triple shades are
visible simultaneously
Principle and Working :
A polarimeter is an instrument which measures the rotation of the polarisation plane through optically active
liquids. It is used to analyse the concentration and contents of substance like sugar solutions. The polarizer
produces linear polarised light. This polarised light passes through the half wave plate and then the sample
substance. After this it passes through the analyser to the eyepiece. In the eyepiece a triple shadow ield can
be observed and the angle of rotation is measured with a circular scale and vernier.
Integrated Lighting System:
Integrated Lighting System: is a completely sealed unit and glare associated with the old Sodium Lamp
models have been eliminated. Polarimeters are used for measurement of Optical Rotation and calculation of
Speciic Rotation of optically active liquids. All components are made from Brass, Gun Metal, Aluminum and
Stainless Steel to ensure high accuracy and a long trouble- free service. Supplied complete with Integrated
Lighting Assembly
