Polarimeter - ToronAP10™ Auto

Polarimeter - ToronAP10™ Auto Polarimeter incorporates state-of-the-art photoelectric inspection technology, delivering precise and reliable measurements with user-friendly operation. By analyzing optical rotation, it determines the density, content, and purity of substances. This versatile instrument finds extensive application across industries such as pharmaceuticals, petroleum, food, chemicals, flavors, spices, sugar production, as well as in universities and research institutes.

The Torontech ToronAP10™ Auto is a high-precision instrument for the automated analysis of optically active substances. By precisely measuring optical rotation, it provides a fundamental and quantitative determination of a substance's concentration, identity, and purity. Its integrated Peltier temperature control ensures all measurements are performed under stable, standardized conditions, which is essential for achieving the accuracy required for stringent quality control.

This critical analysis is a foundational tool for quality and process control in:

  • Pharmaceuticals: For the quality control of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) and raw materials, where specific rotation is a critical test for chemical identity and chiral purity in compliance with global pharmacopoeias.
  • Food & Sugar Industry: To determine the concentration and purity of sugars, syrups, and honey based on the International Sugar Scale (ISS), serving as a primary tool for quality control and commercial grading.
  • Flavor & Fragrance: To verify the authenticity and quality of essential oils and flavor compounds, distinguishing natural, optically active sources from synthetic adulterants based on their unique specific rotation.
  • Academia & Chemical R&D: As a fundamental research and teaching tool for monitoring reaction kinetics, characterizing optically active compounds, and for the in-process quality control of chiral chemicals.

  • Peltier Temperature Control
    Automatically maintains sample temperatures within a range of 10 °C to 50 °C, ensuring stable and accurate results.
  • User Calibration System
    Includes additional standard polarization tubes and calibration software, enabling on-site user calibration for consistent precision.
  • Large Color Touchscreen
    • Features a responsive 5.6-inch TFT display for the ToronAP10 Auto, offering intuitive operation and streamlined data management.
    • Models like ToronAP10 AutoPlus and ToronAP50 AutoPlus are equipped with an upgraded 8-inch TFT display for enhanced visibility.
  • LED Light Source
    Equipped with long-lasting, high-brightness LEDs with a lifespan exceeding 100,000 hours, reducing maintenance by eliminating frequent light source replacements.
