PERISTALTIC PUMP
Peristaltic pumps are self priming. Liquid never contacts the pump components. The titrant tubing
is pressed along the rotating rollers of the pump. The rollers compress the tubing, driving the
titrant to the dispensing tip.
TITRATOR STARTUP
This is a general outline of the steps required to make a titration. The following sections expand
upon each section.
• Place the instrument on a flat table. Do not place the instrument in direct sun light.
• Connect the power adapter to the instrument.
• Turn the instrument ON using the power switch from the rear panel of the instrument.
• Set up the instrument. See the “Setup Configuration Menu” section for details. Pay attention
to the Acidity Type.
• Connect the pH electrode and the temperature probe to the instrument.
• Calibrate the pH electrode. At least a single point calibration is necessary for titration.
• Place the peristaltic pump tube on the pump (inlet tube is connected with the reagent bottle,
outlet tube is connected with the dosing tip). See the “Pump Tube Replacement” section for
the procedure.
• Remove the reagent bottle cap and replace the bottle cap with the tubes. Place the reagent
bottle in the appropriate place on the titrator top.
• Purge the titrant.
• Calibrate the pump.
• Prepare the sample.
• Run a titration and log sample results.
