The AUTOPOL V Plus Advantage

  • 6m HCl acid resistance: Silco Steel coating on the chamber temperature transfer surface and a Hastelloy measurement cell with NIST certificate certifying optical path length.
  • To meet the FDA’s latest position on measurement bracketing, the Autopol® V Plus comes with a NIST traceable quartz plate with three rotations: +0.998° Arc, +10.998° Arc, -10.000° Arc. Each rotation has a NIST certificate.
    • The AUTOPOL V PLUS comes with a NIST traceable quartz plate with 3 rotations
  • Windows based navigation architecture is so intuitive that most operators will never read the manual. But should you wish to reference the manual, it is stored right on the Autopol® V Plus’ internal memory.
  • Available with automated sampling.
    Easy Clean Sampling System
  • Three USB ports allow quick and easy connection to a mouse, keyboard, printer, bar code scanner, or memory stick. One USB port is located on the front of the unit (shown above) and two USB ports are located on the back of the unit (shown below).
    USB and Ethernet ports on the back of the Autopol V Plus
  • Ethernet Port for Network Cable Connection
  • Internet access allowing connection to Rudolph’s service department for remote testing and diagnostics
  • Connect to any Windows® based printer via USB or direct to the server via Windows® Print Library
  • Save measurement data direct to your Network/Server

Patented TempTrol™ Technology Eliminates the Need for a Water Bath. Here is How the TempTrol™ System Works:
TempTrol active surface with Silco Steel coating

TempTrol heating and cooling transfer surface
TempTrol Hastelloy passive surface

TempTrol cell with mating heating & cooling transfer surface manufactured with acid resistance materials: Hastelloy™ and Peek™.

Temperature is selected via touch screen. Temperature selection of 20°C shown left.

Place the TempTrol cell in your TempTrol equipped Autopol® sample chamber to measure within ±0.2°C of the USP, EP, JP, or BP specified temperature (normally 20°C or 25°C ±0.5°C). For improved temperature performance or when working with acids (HCl) use the measurement port in the body of the cell. This also allows the inlet and outlet ports to be capped to avoid evaporation, fumes and spillage.

Rudolph provides a temperature validation cell with every TempTrol system. The temperature validation cell along with optional NIST traceable thermometer is designed to validate the temperature control performance of the polarimeter and cell to ±0.2°C.

Intuitive Windows® Based Interface

  • 2 gigabytes of internal memory allow almost unlimited capacity for saving measurement data. The AUTOPOL V PLUS is network ready and data may also be saved directly to your server or to any directory desired.
  • Internet access is possible directly from the AUTOPOL V PLUS's touch screen. This feature allows real time contact with Rudolph Research Analytical's Service and Technical Support Team who can access your instrument remotely to assist in Window navigation, method setup and troubleshooting.
  • Windows based navigation architecture is so intuitive that most operators will never read the manual. But should you wish to reference the manual, it is stored right on the AUTOPOL V PLUS's internal memory.
  • Three USB ports allow quick and easy connection to a mouse, keyboard, printer, bar code scanner, or memory stick. One USB port is located on the front of the unit and two USB ports are located on the back of the unit.
