Automatic Saccharimeter Model Comparisons
Rudolph makes it easy to match an Automatic Digital Saccharimeter to your budget and industry application. The Autopol IZ and IIZ were designed for limited budget applications where 0.02°Z (ISS) accuracy is sufficient. For the more demanding accuracy applications, Rudolph offers the Autopol 589, 880, 880 Plus and 880T models that have ±0.01°Z (ISS) accuracy, OD 4.0 dark sample penetration power, and feature-rich software.
