Polarimeter - ToronAP50™ Auto

Polarimeter - ToronAP50™ Auto integrates advanced automatic photoelectric inspection technology, offering accurate and reliable measurements with effortless operation. By detecting optical rotation, it enables the analysis and determination of density, content, and purity of various substances. This versatile instrument is widely utilized across pharmaceutical, petroleum, food, chemical, flavor, spice, sugar manufacturing industries, as well as academic and research institutions.

The Torontech ToronAP50™ Auto is a high-precision instrument designed for the automated analysis of optically active substances. By precisely measuring the optical rotation, it provides a fundamental and quantitative determination of a substance's concentration, identity, and purity. Its integrated Peltier temperature control ensures that all measurements are performed under stable, standardized conditions, which is essential for achieving the accuracy required for stringent quality control and regulatory compliance.

This critical analysis is a cornerstone of quality and process control in:

  • Pharmaceutical Industry: For the quality control of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) in full compliance with USP, EP, and other global pharmacopoeias, where specific rotation is a critical test for both chemical identity and chiral purity.
  • Sugar & Food 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 from raw material grading to final product release.
  • Flavor & Fragrance: To verify the authenticity and quality of essential oils and flavor compounds by measuring their specific rotation, a key indicator that distinguishes natural, optically active sources from synthetic adulterants.
  • Chemical Manufacturing: For the in-process control and final quality assurance of chiral chemicals and intermediates, ensuring that products meet their specified enantiomeric purity and concentration for use in advanced synthesis.

  • Peltier Temperature Control: Automatically maintains the sample temperature within a range of 10°C to 50°C for consistent measurement conditions.
  • User Calibration System: Equipped with standard polarization tubes and calibration software for user-initiated adjustments, ensuring precision over time.
  • Enhanced Touchscreen Display:
    • ToronAP10™ Auto: Features a 5.6-inch TFT display.
    • ToronAP10™ AutoPlus / ToronAP50™ Auto / ToronAP50™ AutoPlus: Features an 8-inch TFT color touchscreen with an intuitive software interface for seamless operation and data collection.
  • Long-Lasting LED Light Source: High-brightness LED light with a lifespan exceeding 100,000 hours eliminates the need for frequent replacements, reducing maintenance downtime
