Description
Quartz Plate -30 is a quartz control plate offering an optical rotation of -30 °Z (-10 °A) for polarimeter checks and instrument verification. Measurements are specified at 589 nm and 850 nm at 20 °C and the plate is supplied with a declaration of conformity. This reference standard supports routine quality control and confirmation of polarimeter performance in analytical laboratories. The quartz control plate from manufacturer Bellingham + Stanley provides stable optical properties suited to pharmaceutical, chemical and research environments where reliable rotation values are required. Delivered as a single unit with a net weight of 0,3 kg, it is compact and convenient for bench-top use. Consistent optical behaviour across the stated wavelengths helps laboratories maintain measurement confidence and document instrument status. The plate is intended for regular verification workflows, method support and ensuring that polarimetric results remain within expected tolerances over time.

Questions about QUARTZ CONTROL PLATE -30
What is this article?
QUARTZ CONTROL PLATE -30 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bellingham + Stanley for laboratory use. It sits in Lamps, cuvette holders & accessories, inside Spectroscopy & photometry, in Lab instruments.
A spectrophotometer's lamp, deuterium for UV and tungsten for visible, is a consumable with a life in hours. A cuvette holder sets the path. A 10 mm holder does not correctly read a 1 mm cell unless the software is told. The accessory has to fit that optical bench.
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.
