UniPol L-Series
SCHMIDT+HAENSCH is an active member in standardisation
organisations. Our contributions have shaped measuring
techniques and procedures essentially.
Profound knowledge in research and development are the
base for engineering innovative products.
The technology of the Unipol L-series is housed under the
elegant housing with large user programmable display
and powerful software similar to the SCHMIDT+HAENSCH
refractometer ATR-series.
The improved software implements amongst other features
the input of sample identication numbers, statistic evaluations of multiple measurements, user denable printouts
individually congurable for each of the 4 available methods, etc.
Three different models of the Unipol L-series Polarimeter
according to your individual application requirements are
available with many options. All models of the Unipol Lseries are conforming with the regulations of the European
and American Pharmacopoeias as well as to the GLP/GMP
standards.
Temperature measurement of the sample is very important
to ensure precise and stable measuring results. The Unipol
L-series is displaying the actual sample temperature and
compensates automatically the temperature deviation
compared to the standard temperature when polarimetric
tubes or quartz control plates with temperature sensor are
used. The scale value (e.g. °Z, °S …) is displayed corrected
to the standard temperature.
The two high resolution models Unipol L1000/L2000 are
designed to meet high requirements of the quality control
and research laboratories.

Polarimeter Applications
Polarimetry is used for quality control, purity control
and the determination of concentration of optically active
substances.
Food industry
Sugar, starch, milk and dairy products, wine, juice, food
auxiliary means, amino acids
Pharmaceutical industry
Enantiomers, chiral substances like soaps, amino acids,
organic substances, glucose, fructose, purity control
(codeine, cocaine, nicotines, morphine sulfate), ascorbic
acid, menthol, camphor, drug recognition
Medicine
Chiral metabolic compounds like sugar and albumin content
in urine, hormones, poison analyses, testosterones, enzymes
and toxicology
Chemical research
Analysis of optically active substances and structural
analyses, inorganic ions in conjunction with optically active
substances (e.g. - Bi, - Cd, - Cu, - Fe, - Hg), regulation of
materials in solutions, organic substances, turpentine’s,
Benzene, acids, esters etc.
