| "LED" which has long life and lights overwhelmingly fast in comparison with the sodium lamp, is used as a light source. The wavelenght of 589nm equivalent to D-line of the sodium is ensured by using interference filter together with "LED". |
| Look through the eyepiece and match the brightness at the left and right of the visual field with push-button switches. Measurement value is indicated digitally on the display panel. Moreover, the temperature of the sample chamber can be indicated on the display panel by pressing the shift/temp switch. |
| Push-button switches are used to rotate the analyzer. In addition to the right (+) and left(-) switches, the POLAX-2L has the shift/temp switch with which the rotation speed can be changed in two steps. |
- Polarimeter is widely used in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries for quality control. Approximately 60 types of chemical materials for measuring " Angle of Rotation" in the list of Pharmacopeia. Including ascorbic acid, testosterone, and cocaine.
- Many optically active materials used in food additives, flavoring and perfumes, the polarimetric analysis is widely applied.
- International sugar scale (°Z) is used for sugar measurement and polarimeter is essential instruments for this procedure.
- Polarimeter is widely used for educational purposes in the filed of " Physics" and "Applied science" course for understanding polarized light, optical rotation, optical active substance, and optical activity.
