Page 11: Basic Operations
2. Basic Operations Operate away from direct sunlight at a stable temperature with as little fluctuation CAUTION ● as possible. Acclimate both the instrument and sample solution to room temperature to ensure ● accurate results. Measurements may fluctuate with hot or cold samples. Wait to press F after placing the sample on the sample stage. -
Page 12: Measurements
2. Measurements ①Wipe the sample stage clean. ②Fill the sample stage with the sample solution to the fill line. Measure room temperature (distilled) samples. The instrument should also be Fill line acclimated to room temperature prior to (Approx. 3mL) operations. Try stirring the sample on the sensor during measurement to improve the repeatability of oily/fatty samples. - Page 13 〈Measurement Evaluation Indicator〉 Example: When the Angle of Rotation (conversion to 200mm optical path length) is Configured with a lower limit of 33.0% and an upper limit of 36.0%.

Page 20: Scales
5. Scales ANGLE OF ROTATION - denoted by "α" and expressed in degrees ("° ") The rotation of polarized light is observed when polarized light that is oscillating unidirectionally rotates as it passes through a liquid. The measurement of the angle of such rotation is called the "Angle of Rotation." The angle of rotation is the basic numeric value measured by polarimeters and are dependent on the concentration of the liquid, the length of the observation tube, temperature, and the measurement wavelength. -
