General 
quality of the 
Titration 
Curve

The end point 
is not sharp.

If the electrode hasn't 
been used for some time 
it may need to be 
reconditioned.

• Clean and recondition the electrode. See 

Cleaning and 

Conditioning the Electrode

 on page

139

.

The titration 
curve is 
unusually 
noisy.

Mechanical vibrations of 
the sample cell or 
instrument increases the 
noise in the collected 
titration curve. 

• Remove any source of vibration. This includes repositioning 

the sample beaker to avoid having the magnetic stir bar strike 
it's side. 

• Ensure that the plastic anti-diffusion tip and electrode are 

properly installed into the electrode head. See 

Section 2 

Instrument Assembly

.

Sharp spikes 
are observed 
in the titration 
curve.

This is generally not a 
major problem but 
electrical spikes may be 
observed when the 
AutoCAT shares an 
electrical circuit with other 
devices or relays during 
the data collection 
process. Even if there are 
electrical spikes in the 
titration curve, they 
generally don't prevent 
the analysis of the data.

• Install a surge protector between the AutoCAT 9000 and the 

wall outlet. 

• Turn OFF all other devices on the same circuit.
• Use only a dedicated electrical circuit for the AutoCAT 9000.

Erratic 
operation

The AutoCAT 9000 is 
sensitive to static 
electricity.

• Surround the AutoCAT 9000 with a Faraday cage.
• Move the instrument to a location free of strong electrical 

fields or static discharges if performance is 
adversely affected.

Irregular 
distortions or 
flat regions in 
the middle of 
the titration 
curves.

Occasionally air bubbles 
get trapped in the system 
and pass through burette 
tip. If air bubbles pass 
through the burette tip 
before the titration has 
reached the end point 
then the apparent titrant 
volume will be larger than 
it really should be. Air 
bubbles may also develop 
when the titrant degasses 
due to temperature 
changes and/or pressure 
drops within the system.

• Inspect the tubing and remove or purge any air bubbles that 

might be trapped in the system; also check to be sure all the 
tubing connections are tight and not leaking. Loose 
connections are the primary source for recurring air 
bubbles to enter the system. 

The titration 
curve starts or 
ends with a 
high, perfectly 
flat region.

The current range for the 
A/D converter has been 
exceeded.

• Increase the current range.
• Predose the sample with enough titrant to bring the signal 

into the appropriate current range.

• Use a proportionately smaller sample size to bring the signal 

into the appropriate current range.
