Automated determination of acidic, alkaline solids

The determination of acidic and alkaline solids by non-aqueous titration is possible with Metrohm's automated ProcessLab system.

The analysis of acids and bases is a well-known basic task in analytical chemistry.

With this fully automated system only the sample needs to be taken and weighed in by the user.

ProcessLab does the rest autonomously.

For the determination of the acid or base content an automated ProcessLab system is used.

Liquid handling of the needed solvents is done using the buret and pumps which ProcessLab provides.

Sample identification is done with a barcode reader.

A certain amount of sample is weighed in and the result automatically transferred to tiamo.

Depending on the type of sample, tiamo starts and performs an acid or base titration with the corresponding non-aqueous solvent.

Features/General information: Acid and base determinations in one system, non-aqueous, Barcode reader offers automatic method selection by using predefined barcodes, Balance integration makes operating easy and prevents typing errors, System can be used for content determination of any suitable material e.g raw material or finished products, Optional liquid level sensors monitor the reagent level and call for manual intervention when required, Additional terminals for the I/O controller allow to transmit or receive external signals, for example a result which is sent to a remote PCS (process control system).

An incoming signal can be a density value from a density meter.

This system is very flexible and can be adapted very easily to any specific needs.

If necessary an additional reagent cabinet is available and can be placed directly under ProcessLab.

It has sufficient space for all reagents and makes ProcessLab even more comfortable.
