Description
Polarimeter P3000 for standard measurements is an economical laboratory polarimeter intended for routine optical-rotation determinations. It offers a measurement accuracy of ±0,01°, making it suitable for quality-control and teaching environments where reliable standard readings are required without unnecessary complexity. Optical rotation data support concentration checks, purity assessment, and identity confirmation of optically active substances in pharmaceutical, chemical, and food-related laboratories. The instrument is supplied as a complete polarimeter unit with a net weight of 28 kg and a gross weight of 31 kg, reflecting a stable benchtop build for continuous laboratory use. Manufactured by Krüss and originating from Germany, the P3000 focuses on straightforward standard measurements rather than advanced research configurations. Its product type is a dedicated polarimeter for everyday analytical tasks where ±0,01° accuracy is sufficient. Laboratories seeking a cost-effective polarimeter for recurring standard measurements can integrate the P3000 into existing sample-preparation and reporting workflows while relying on consistent angular readout performance for optically active samples.
This article is part of Refractometers & polarimeters, in Spectroscopy & photometry.

Questions about Polarimeter P3000 for standard measurements
What is this article?
Polarimeter P3000 for standard measurements is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Krüss for laboratory use. It sits in Refractometers & polarimeters, inside Spectroscopy & photometry, in Lab instruments.
A refractometer reads the refractive index of a liquid, often expressed as Brix for sugar. A polarimeter reads the rotation of polarised light. Both depend on temperature. A handheld refractometer and a thermostated benchtop instrument are different accuracies.
A photometer or spectrophotometer sends light through a sample and reads how much was absorbed. In the range where the Beer–Lambert relation holds, absorbance tracks concentration. A refractometer reads how a liquid bends light, which tracks dissolved solids. A polarimeter reads the rotation of polarised light, the classical measurement for sugars. The lamp, the wavelength and the cuvette path length are the three things that have to be right before the number means anything. The optical quantities trace to NIST and the BIPM.
