Laboratory Polarimeter, AUTOPOL® VI For Analytical Laboratories
The AUTOPOL® VI is designed as a Research Polarimeter for the most demanding analytical laboratories. If your laboratory requires the highest accuracy and must meet the most stringent compliance standards, the Autopol® VI has the measurement, temperature control, communications, and data tracking capabilities your application requires.
The Industry Standard Laboratory Polarimeter – Unmatched Accuracy: ± 0.0003° Arc
For Racemic Solutions and very low concentration samples, the Autopol® VI laboratory Polarimeter provides unmatched 4th decimal optical rotation accuracy of ±0.0003°Arc over ±1°Arc. Instrument performance for readings between -1 and 1° Arc is: Resolution ±0.0001, Reproducibility ±0.0002, and Accuracy ±0.0003.
The Autopol® V PLUS and Autopol® VI have the validation tools and features to satisfy today’s global pharmaceutical companies, including: instrument level 21CFR Part 11 compliance, NIST traceable calibration standards and a global list of installations. Rudolph Research has thousands of satisfied customers who praise the Autopol® V PLUS and Autopol® VI quality, accuracy and reproducibility.

The Autopol® V PLUS and Autopol® VI Laboratory Polarimeter Use Rudolph’s Exclusive TempTrol™ Electronic Temperature Control System
The USP <781> requires optical rotation measurements at 25°C ± .5°C (unless another temperature is specified). The (EP) European Pharmacopoeia requires optical rotation measurements made at 20° ± .5°C (unless another temperature is specified).
Whatever your temperature control needs are, the Autopol® VI and the Autopol® V PLUS’ exclusive TempTrol™ System (Patent No. 6,717,665) makes your measurement in a few minutes without a water bath or any type of water circulation.
The TempTrol™ System allows push-button temperature control of your 100mm cell, 200mm cell or Quartz Plate. Set the temperature, push “measure” and walk away. The Autopol® Laboratory Polarimeter will heat or cool to a predefined temperature and then provide you with the result all in one easy step.
Patented TempTrol™ Technology Eliminates the Need for a Water Bath. Here is How the TempTrol™ System Works:
TempTrol™ heating and cooling transfer surface in the polarimeter sample chamber
Select temperature via touch screen. Temperature selection of 20°C or 25°C shown above.
TempTrol™ cell with mating heating & cooling transfer surface manufactured with acid resistance materials: NEDOX™ and Peek™ below.
Place the TempTrol™ cell in your TempTrol™ equipped Autopol® polarimeter 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)
To Validate Temperature Performance
Rudolph provides a temperature validation cell with every TempTrol™ system. The temperature validation cell along with an optional NIST traceable Thermo Probe is designed to validate the temperature control performance of the polarimeter and cell to ±0.2°C.
Impresión cGMP/GLP
Measurement reports can be saved as an Excel or PDF file and edited quickly and easily. You can import logos and print your company’s customized “C of A” directly directly from the Autopol® VI Polarimeter.
Validation and Calibration
Rudolph Research Analytical knows that you must be able to validate your laboratory polarimeter’s operating performance regularly. Therefore, the AUTOPOL® VI comes standard with the accessories, validation tool and automatic calibration functions necessary to ensure that the temperature control, temperature measurement and optical measurement processes are working accurately and reproducibly. All functions are assessed simply and conveniently through the AUTOPOL® VI liquid sealed touch screen.
Unmatched Accuracy in a Laboratory Polarimeter
For Racemic Solutions and very low concentration samples, the AUTOPOL® VI Laboratory Polarimeter provides unmatched 4th decimal Rotación óptica accuracy of ±0.0003°Arc over ±1°Arc. Instrument performance for readings between -1 and 1° Arc is: Resolution ±0.0001, Reproducibility ± 0.0002, and Accuracy ±0.0003.
Intuitive Windows® Embedded Interface
- 32 gigabytes of internal memory allow almost unlimited capacity for saving measurement data. The AUTOPOL®VI Laboratory Polarimeter 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® VI’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 VI’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.
Laboratory Polarimeter – Flexible Method Management
Install your own measurement methods for immediate selection of the correct method to match your most common tests. Setting up your own custom methods is as simple as filling out a few screens like the one shown to the right.
Full 21CFR Part 11 Instrument Level Compliance
The AUTOPOL VI’s 21CFR Part 11 software module is easily enabled through the user friendly touch screen. This module gives you full compliance with:
- Electronic signature
