Atago SAC-i Type B without Temperature Control

Atago SAC-i Type B Without Temperature Control

Product Description

The Atago SAC-i Type B Without Temperature Control is a high-precision automatic polarimeter and saccharimeter designed for optical rotation and sugar content (°Z) measurements. This model provides fast, accurate, and repeatable results, making it an essential tool for pharmaceutical, food and beverage, sugar, chemical, and research laboratories.

Unlike the Type A model, the SAC-i Type B does not include an integrated temperature control system, making it a cost-effective solution for laboratories and industries that operate in stable temperature environments or use external temperature control systems. Despite this, it maintains high accuracy, fast measurement speed, and compliance with industry standards (USP, EP, JP), ensuring reliable data for quality control and research applications.

Features

• High-Speed Measurement: Provides accurate readings within 13 seconds, enhancing productivity.
• Dual-Wavelength Capability: Measures optical rotation using 589 nm (Sodium D-line) and 882 nm for various applications.
• Superior Accuracy & Repeatability: Offers an optical rotation accuracy of ±0.002° and a sugar scale accuracy of ±0.01°Z.
• Multi-Parameter Display: Displays results in optical rotation (°), sugar scale (°Z), specific rotation ([α]), and concentration (%).
• User-Friendly Touchscreen: Large LCD touchscreen with an intuitive navigation interface.
• Automatic Calibration & Validation: Pre-calibrated with quartz calibration plates for consistent, accurate measurements.
• GLP/GMP Compliance: Ensures data integrity and traceability, making it suitable for regulated testing environments.
