6. TITRATOR STARTUP
This is a general outline of the steps required to perform a titration. The following topics are expanded
upon each section that follows.
• 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 MENU section for details.
• Connect the pH electrode to the instrument.
• Connect the temperature sensor to the instrument.
• Calibrate the pH electrode.
• Connect the tubes and the valve. See the DOSING PUMP INSTALLATION section for the procedure.
• Remove the titrant bottle cap and replace it with the bottle cap with tubes. Place the titrant bottle
in the appropriate place on the titrator top.
Note:
Different titrants are required based on the concentration. See PUMP CALIBRATION
PROCEDURE for details.
• Prime the syringe. To assure high accuracy, verify there are no air bubbles in the syringe or tubing.
• Calibrate the pump.
Note:
Different volumes of standard are required based on the concentration. See TITRATION
PROCEDURE section for details.
• Prepare the sample.
• Run a titration and log sample results.
