Polarimeter: Detailed Principles, User Guide, and Comprehensive Fault Repair Guide

Polarimeter: Detailed Principles, User Guide, and Comprehensive Fault Repair Guide

I. Overview

The polarimeter is a precision optical instrument primarily used to measure the optical rotation of substances exhibiting chirality. Optical rotation, a measure of how a substance rotates polarized light, enables the analysis and determination of substance concentration, content, and purity. Polarimeters find wide application in pharmaceutical production, drug inspection, sugar manufacturing, food processing, chemical industry, petroleum, as well as in scientific research and education for laboratory analysis and process quality control.

II. Principles

The working principle of the polarimeter is based on the phenomenon of optical rotation exhibited by substances on polarized light. Natural light, after passing through a polarizer, becomes plane-polarized light. When this plane-polarized light passes through a chiral substance, its vibration direction rotates by a certain angle, known as the optical rotation. The polarimeter measures the angle change before and after the polarized light passes through the chiral substance to determine its optical rotation. Specifically, the polarimeter employs a light source that emits light, which, after passing through a color filter and a polarizer, forms plane-polarized light. This light rotates when it passes through a polarimeter tube containing the chiral substance, and is then observed and measured through an analyzer and an eyepiece assembly to obtain the optical rotation value.

III. Usage Instructions

Preparation:

  • Place the polarimeter on a stable workbench, connect the power supply, and preheat until the light source stabilizes (usually 5-10 minutes).
  • Check if all components of the instrument are intact and the polarimeter tube is clean and free of impurities.

Zero Calibration:

  • Turn on the instrument and use a blank solvent (e.g., distilled water) for zero calibration.
  • Inject the blank solvent into the polarimeter tube, place it in the sample chamber, adjust the analyzer to the zero position, and ensure uniform field brightness.
  • Repeat the operation several times to ensure the instrument’s stability and reliability.

Sample Testing:

  • Inject the sample into the polarimeter tube, ensuring no bubbles and that the tube is fully filled.
  • Place the tube back in the sample chamber, adjust the analyzer to the appropriate position for optimal field brightness.
  • Read and record the displayed optical rotation value.

Repeated Measurements and Averaging:

  • For improved accuracy, repeat measurements on the same sample and take the average as the final result.

Completion:

  • After testing, turn off the instrument, clean the polarimeter tube and sample chamber, return the instrument to its place, and make usage records.

IV. Faults and Repair Methods

Light Source Faults:

  • If the light source does not illuminate or is insufficiently bright, check the power supply, bulb integrity, and optical path clearance.
  • Replace the bulb or clean the optical path to resolve the issue.

Unstable Readings:

  • Fluctuating readings may result from environmental temperature changes, lack of calibration, or loose mechanical parts.
  • Ensure the instrument is used in a constant temperature environment, calibrate regularly, and check the tightness of mechanical parts.

Polarimeter Tube Contamination:

  • Contamination of the polarimeter tube’s inner wall affects measurements.
  • Regularly clean the inner wall with a dedicated cleaner and soft cloth, avoiding scratches.

Circuit Faults:

  • Circuit issues, such as the instrument not turning on or no display, may result from poor power cord connection, blown fuses, or damaged circuit boards.
  • Check power cord connections, replace fuses, or contact professional repair personnel for circuit board faults.

Mechanical Part Damage:

  • Damaged mechanical parts, such as stiff analyzer rotation or loose eyepiece assemblies, affect measurement accuracy and stability.
  • Regularly inspect mechanical parts for damage and replace them promptly to ensure proper instrument operation.

Cone Penetrometer: Principles, Operation Guide, and Comprehensive Maintenance Manual

I. Overview

1. Introduction
The cone penetrometer, a specialized material testing device, is primarily used to measure the hardness or consistency of various coatings, paints, chemical products, and greases. By simulating a standard conical probe applying pressure to the sample surface and measuring its insertion depth, it assesses the sample’s resistance or hardness. The cone penetrometer, known for its simplicity, wide applicability, and high measurement accuracy, finds extensive use in industrial manufacturing, scientific research, and medical fields.

II. Principles

2. Working Mechanism
The cone penetrometer operates based on the indentation method in mechanics. It incorporates a standard conical probe (commonly referred to as the cone) and a pressure gauge (or displacement sensor). During testing, the cone is vertically pressed into the sample surface under a preset pressure, and the pressure gauge records the depth of cone penetration into the sample. This depth value reflects the sample’s resistance under given pressure, indicating its hardness or consistency. Multiple tests at different positions and directions, followed by averaging, ensure the accuracy and reliability of the measurement results.

III. Operation Guide

3. Preparation
Ensure the cone penetrometer is in good working condition. Check the cone for cleanliness and damage. Prepare the sample to be tested. Depending on the test requirements, adjust the instrument’s temperature, pressure, and other parameters.

4. Sample Preparation
Place the sample on a flat testing platform, ensuring the sample surface is smooth and free of impurities. For tests requiring specific temperatures, heat or cool the sample to the designated temperature.

5. Cone Installation
Attach a clean cone to the instrument’s standard rod and secure it. Adjust the instrument’s level to ensure the cone can vertically penetrate the sample surface during testing.

6. Testing Procedure
Start the cone penetrometer and begin testing according to preset parameters. The cone gradually penetrates the sample surface under pressure, and the pressure gauge records the cone’s insertion depth in real-time. The instrument automatically stops the test upon reaching the preset time or depth.

7. Data Reading
After testing, read the cone’s insertion depth value from the instrument. For improved measurement accuracy, perform multiple tests at different positions and directions and calculate the average.

8. Cleanup and Maintenance
After testing, promptly clean the cone and testing platform. Remove and properly store the cone’s protective oil. Regularly maintain and calibrate the instrument to ensure long-term stable operation.

IV. Common Faults and Repair Methods

9. Cone Wear or Damage

  • Symptom: Inaccurate or highly variable measurement results.
  • Repair Method: Inspect the cone for wear or damage and replace it if necessary. Ensure the cone is securely installed and its surface is clean and free of impurities.

10. Pressure Gauge Failure

Precision Chillers: Working Principle, Usage, and Common Fault Repair Guide

Precision Chillers: Working Principle, Usage, and Common Fault Repair Guide

I. Overview

Precision chillers are efficient and stable industrial auxiliary equipment widely used in fields requiring precise temperature control, such as laboratories, semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceutical production, and plastic processing. By circulating cooling water or other cooling media, they provide a constant low-temperature environment for various equipment and systems, ensuring process stability and product quality.

II. Working Principle

The working principle of precision chillers is based on the heat exchange principle in thermodynamics. The main components include a compressor, condenser, evaporator, expansion valve, and water circulation system. The specific working principle is as follows:

  • Refrigerant Cycle: The refrigerant is compressed into high-temperature, high-pressure gas by the compressor, then enters the condenser where it releases heat through a cooling fan or natural cooling, condensing into high-pressure liquid. After passing through the expansion valve, the high-pressure liquid enters the evaporator, evaporates and absorbs heat under low pressure, absorbing heat from the circulating water and lowering its temperature.
  • Water Circulation System: Low-temperature cooling water is pumped to the equipment or system needing cooling, absorbs heat, and then returns to the evaporator for re-cooling, forming a closed cycle.
  • Automatic Control System: Through temperature sensors and controllers, the water temperature is monitored and adjusted in real-time to ensure it remains stable within the set range. The system is also equipped with protection and alarm devices to prevent equipment overload, refrigerant leakage, and other abnormalities.

III. Usage

  1. Installation and Debugging: Install the precision chiller correctly according to the equipment manual, and connect the water source, power supply, and drainage pipeline. Conduct a comprehensive inspection before starting to ensure all components are tightly connected and leak-free. Then, proceed with debugging and set the required water temperature and range.
  2. Startup and Operation: Turn on the power and start the compressor and water pump. Observe the indicator lights and display on the control panel to ensure the equipment is running normally. Adjust the water temperature and flow rate as needed to meet the cooling requirements of different equipment and systems.
  3. Maintenance and Upkeep: Regularly check the water quality and level of the cooling medium, and replace or replenish as necessary. Clean the surface dust and dirt on the condenser and evaporator to improve heat dissipation efficiency. Regularly inspect the operating status of key components such as the compressor and water pump, and promptly identify and address potential faults.

IV. Common Faults and Repair Methods

  1. Insufficient Cooling Water Flow: Check if the water pump is working normally and if there are any blockages or leaks. Clear debris and dirt from the water pump inlet and outlet to ensure smooth water flow. If the water pump is severely damaged, replace it with a new one.
  2. High Water Temperature: Check if the condenser’s heat dissipation effect is good and if there is any dust or debris affecting heat dissipation. Clean the dust and dirt on the condenser surface and ensure the cooling fan is running normally. If the problem persists, it may be due to insufficient or leaking refrigerant; replenish the refrigerant and check for leakage points for repair.
  3. Compressor Fault: The compressor is one of the core components of the precision chiller, with common faults including overload, overheating, and starting difficulties. Check the compressor’s operating current and voltage for normality, and listen for any abnormal sounds or vibrations. If the compressor is severely damaged, replace it with a new one.
  4. Control System Fault: Issues such as inaccurate temperature display or control failure may be due to a damaged temperature sensor or controller fault. Check if the temperature sensor is damaged or detached, and replace it if necessary. If the controller fault is severe, replace it with a new one or seek professional repair.
  5. Other Faults: For issues such as pipeline leaks and damaged electrical components, take corresponding repair measures based on the specific situation. Promptly identify and address fault points to ensure the equipment resumes normal operation.

 Density Meter Comprehensive Guide: Operating Principles, Brands,Usage, Faults, and Maintenance

Density Meter Overview

The Density Meter is a precision instrument used to measure the density of objects. It finds wide application in laboratories, industrial production, and scientific research. By measuring the mass and volume of an object, it calculates density based on the definition of mass-to-volume ratio. Capable of measuring both solid and liquid densities, the density meter offers speed, accuracy, and ease of operation.

Principles

The fundamental principle of the density meter is based on Archimedes’ Principle, which states that the buoyant force on an object in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces. According to this principle, density meters are designed to float in liquids and indirectly measure liquid density by assessing the relationship between buoyancy and gravity. Various types of density meters, such as oscillating tube, hydrostatic, and radioactive isotope meters, may employ different working principles, but the core idea involves inferring density by measuring the force state of an object in a liquid.

Usage

Preparation:

  • Ensure the density meter is fully powered and its indication range and accuracy meet measurement requirements.
  • Clean the measurement container to ensure no impurities.

Measurement Steps:

  1. Determine Object Mass: Use a balance to measure and record the mass of the object to be tested.
  2. Place Measurement Container: Select a suitable measurement container, place it on the density meter platform, and eliminate bubbles.
  3. Fill Liquid: Slowly pour in the liquid to be measured until the surface is stable.
  4. Place Object: Gently place the object in the container, keeping it suspended and avoiding contact with the container walls.
  5. Read Measurement: Wait for the density meter to stabilize and read the density value on the display.

Common Faults and Repairs

Power Fault:

  • Phenomenon: Unable to start normally or sudden power-off, display shows nothing or abnormally.
  • Repair: Check power cord connection, replace power socket or cord. Ensure stable power supply and avoid excessive voltage fluctuations. For internal power module faults, contact the manufacturer or professional repair personnel.

Display Fault:

  • Phenomenon: Display shows garbled characters, no display, or unclear display.

Sensor Fault:

  • Phenomenon: Measurement results are inaccurate or abnormal.
  • Repair: Clean the sensor to remove stains. If the sensor is damaged, replace it. For sensor calibration errors, recalibrate according to the manual or contact the manufacturer.

Connection Line Fault:

  • Phenomenon: Unstable or unable to connect the density meter to a computer or other devices.
  • Repair: Check if the connection plug is tightly inserted and replace damaged connection lines.

Temperature Drift:

  • Phenomenon: Measurement results are unstable or have large deviations at different temperatures.
  • Repair: Check the working environment temperature and avoid excessively high or low temperatures. For temperature drift issues, contact the manufacturer for repair or replace with a suitable density meter.

Leakage:

  • Phenomenon: The density meter leaks, resulting in poor measurement repeatability.
  • Repair: Inspect and replace damaged seals. Ensure proper sample handling, eliminate bubbles and suspended particles before measurement.

Maintenance and Care

  • Regular Inspection: After a period of use, check the accuracy of measurement results.
  • Regular Calibration: Perform regular calibration according to manual requirements to maintain the accuracy and stability of the density meter.
  • Cleaning: Clean containers and measurement components before and after use to avoid contamination.
