ADP400 Series Polarimeters

 HIGH PRECISION, SINGLE WAVELENGTH INSTRUMENTS WITH OR WITHOUT PELTIER TEMPERATURE CONTROL FOR APPLICATIONS WITHIN FLAVOURS, FRAGRANCE, PHARMACEUTICAL, CHEMICAL, ACADEMIA & RESEARCH. 

The ADP400 Series comprises two models: (1) the ADP450 polarimeter with XPC Technology - Xylem’s patented

on-board Peltier temperature control system for measuring optically active samples at stable temperatures and

(2) the ADP430 polarimeter for use where temperature control is not required or where a waterbath or

mathematical compensation is preferred.

Capable of measuring up to 3.0 OD at 589nm over a maximum tube length of 200mm, ADP400 Series polarimeters

offer three decimal place precision to an accuracy of ±0.01 °Angular, making them ideal for general purpose use in

food, flavours, fragrance, pharmaceutical and chemical industries as well as within academia and research.
