Connecting the Burette 

Set the Burette on the glass table; use the upper socket of the burette in the back panel to 
connect the burette control cable and plug the cable on the Terminal on the Burette socket. 

Connect the mains plug of the burette to mains outlet located on the right side of electrical 
box; the outlet delivers 230Vac independently of the local mains power. 

 

 

 

 

You have to insert the titration hose till it touch the 

nozzle as shown on figures below.
