A saccharimeter measures the concentration of sugar in a solution making it an important instrument in food and beverage industries. Saccharimeters typically work by passing light through sugar in a solution and taking measurements of the sugar’s refractive index. While they have been around for quite some time, modern saccharimeters are automated and offer high degrees of accuracy not found in their earlier counterparts. Things to consider before purchasing include the types of sugars that can be measured, sample size, accuracy, and price.

| Description | Rudolph makes it easy to match a saccharimeter to your budget and application. The Autopol IZ and IIZ were designed for limited budget applications where 0.02°Z (ISS) accuracy are sufficient.
Features and Benefits
For sugar mills that want to measure according to the ICUMSA non-lead procedure Rudolph makes it easy to match a saccharimeter to your budget and application. The Autopol IZ and IIZ were designed for limited budget applications where 0.02°Z (ISS) accuracy are sufficient.
Features and Benefits
For sugar mills that want to measure according to the ICUMSA non-lead procedure but whose application does not require the accuracy of Rudolph's more expensive models.
Rudolph does not use plastic polarizers on its less expensive models like other manufacturers do. Rudolph uses only Glan Thompson Calcite polarizers, which cost 10x more than plastic polarizers.... Read More | Rudolph makes it easy to match a saccharimeter to your budget and application. For the more demanding accuracy applications, Rudolph offers the Autopol 589, 880 and 880T models that have ±0.01°Z (ISS) accuracy, OD 4.0 dark sample penetration power and feature rich software.

Features and Benefits
This is Rudolph’s latest and most advanced model. It was developed and tested in conjunction with labs testing pharmaceutical grade sugars. These labs require precise temperature control yet still want flow through cell type operation. For sugar trade labs and contract work that demands the best and most advanced saccharimeter in the world.
This option is only suitable for air conditioned modern laboratories.... Read More | Rudolph makes it easy to match a saccharimeter to your budget and application.
