Semi-Micro Osmometer K-7400S instructions, V3700
1. Product information
1.1
General
The Semi-Micro Osmometer K-7400S allows the easy and fast determina-
tion of the osmolality of various aqueous solutions. In addition, the freez-
ing point depression of such samples can be measured.
The proven technology of freezing point determination in combina-
tion with the robust and intelligent design of the device allows fast and
repro ducible measurements. The instrument is equipped with a peltier
cooler and an integrated microprocessor controlling the automated
measure ment.
The freezing point Osmometer is a standalone device that optionally can
be equipped with a printer. Furthermore, the device can be controlled via
the EuroOsmo 7400 software.
1.2
Intended use
Note:
Only use the device for applications that fall within the range of
the intended use. Otherwise, the protective and safety equipment of the
device could fail.
Freezing point osmometers (FPO) are versatile for analysis of aqueous
solutions of various origin. Only a small sample size is needed and results
are generated fast and reproducible.
A limitation of FPOs is the analysis of high viscous samples as osmolality
of these samples can not be measured. Also samples of high molality or
col loidal solutions can not be analyzed.

Operating ranges
The Semi-Micro Osmometer K-7400S can be used for example in the fol-
lowing application areas:
pharmaceutical analysis
environmental analysis
beverage analysis
