Conductometer856 Conductivity Module

The 856 Conductivity Module can be used as a stand-alone instrument in combination with an 840 Touch Control or as an extension to any Titrando system.

The 856 Conductivity Module can measure with con-ductivity measuring cells of the latest technology, the 5-ring cells. They provide a high linearity without plati-nisation of the cell. This guarantees highest precision, and the cell constant, once determined, remains stable over a wide measuring range. In contrast to the 4-ring cells, the electrode can be completely immersed in the beaker. Thus, beakers with different filling heights are no problem and in stirred solutions a rapid homogeni-sation within the cell can occur. Last but not least, the cell is easy to clean due to its removable cap.

With the help of the optional 6.2103.160 Adapter box the classical Metrohm conductivity measuring cells can continue to be used with the instrument.

Thanks to the galvanically separated measuring input, pH and conductivity can be determined in the same beaker without interferences.

The Conductivity Module has 2 USB interfaces for con-nection of USB printers, barcode readers or sample changers and 4 MSB interfaces for stirrers or 800 Dosinos.

Whether operated by 840 Touch Control as a stand-alone pH meter or by PC Control or tiamo™ full (from 2.0), the 856 Conductivity Module complies with GLP and FDA requirements.

Titrando family

Depending on the model, the Titrando supports the titration modes DET (dynamic equivalence point titra-tion), MET (monotonic equivalence point titration), SET (titration to one or two predefined endpoints), KFT (volumetric Karl Fischer titration) and pH-STAT.

Ion meter With the measuring modes MEAS pH and MEAS CONC not only pH, potential and temperature can be measured. Direct concentration determination and standard addition can also be carried out with ion-selective electrodes.

Comprehensive liquid handling Basic operations in daily laboratory work, such as pipetting, transferring, dosing, dispensing and diluting become perfectly easy thanks to the liquid handling functions of the Titrando. No matter whether you con-nect the Dosino directly to the Titrando or carry out operations using a USB Sample Processor, both systems guarantee highest accuracy and precision in the range from 10 μL to 100 mL.

Measuring input The measuring interface of the Titrando features a socket for the intelligent electrodes "iTrodes", a high-impedance input and an input for polarisable elec-trodes, as well as a separate reference input and an input for a Pt 1000 or NTC temperature sensor. The resolution of the inputs is 0.1 mV or 0.001 pH. Up to two galvanically separated measuring interfaces can be installed.

MSB connection With the four built-in MSBs (Metrohm Serial Bus) up to 4 Dosinos or Dosimats, 4 magnetic or rod stirrers and 4 remote boxes for automation can be controlled. This means that the modular Titrando system is the most flexible titration system on the market. Plug-and-play functionality makes the manual configuration of peripheral devices a thing of the past; the Titrando automatically recognises the connected device.

USB connection For communication with balances, printers and other USB-capable devices, two USB ports are available. Laboratory balances can be connected via an RS-232 converter.

The Dosino – dosing on a minimum footprint With the Titrando dosing is carried out with a Dosino and an intelligent dosing unit which is mounted directly onto the reagent bottle. A data chip contains all the information on the reagent and dosing unit that is required for titration. The dosing unit can be exchanged in no time at all. Each dosing unit has its own serial and cylinder numbers and comes with its own individual certificate.

Intelligent electrodes «iTrodes» The built-in memory chip enables storing of important sensor data such as article and serial number, calibra-tion data, calibration history, working life and calibra-tion validity. All sensor data is read in automatically on connection to a Titrando. This prevents editing confu-sion or errors. If the type of electrode is different from that defined in the method, then the user is informed. Monitoring functions allow the exclusion of electrodes whose calibration data lies outside the limits or whose calibration has expired. If the sensor is used with different instruments, then the calibration data stored in the chip makes the electrode transferrable; it no longer needs to be reca-librated each time that it is used with different instru-ments.

Operation – it's your choice Touch Control is an ergonomic and modern operating unit. You can hold it in your hand, put it on the bench or mount it on the wall. Thanks to the new favorite icons you have direct access to your favorite methods.

Of course, the Titrando can be operated from virtually any PC. If using the PC Control software you can oper-ate the Titrando by mouse click. Look and operation are practically identical to Touch Control. Methods and determinations are 100% compatible. In addition to the PC Control software, the new tiamo™ titration software is also available. In addition to the standard functions for controlling a Titrando, tiamo™ offers numerous other functions, such as a client-server data-base or real parallel titration.

Unlimited automation Increasing numbers of samples, complicated sample preparation steps and unattended overnight operation soon call for the use of a sample changer. The Titrando has the necessary intelligence for controlling sample changers. No matter whether large or small sample capacity, one or two workstations, measuring out the sample, sample preparation, liquid handling, rinsing and calibrating the electrodes, – the new USB Sample Processors offer a high degree of automation at a rea-sonable price.

Titrino plus

The Titrino plus, Metrohm’s new entry-level titrator for potentiometric titration, features an excellent price-performance ratio. A large live display with titration curve, the plug-and-play functionality of exchange unit, stirrer and USB printer, a high-precision measuring input, operation by mouse click – the Titrino plus offers considerably more than you would expect in this price category. With its operator dialogue tailored to the needs of the routine user, the Titrino plus instruments are so simple to use that they can be put into opera-tion in no time at all. Their robustness makes them the ideal titrators for routine determinations in day-to-day laboratory use.

Potentiometric titration The 877 Titrino plus supports the titration modes MET (monotonic equivalence point titration) and SET (titra-tion to one or two predefined endpoints). The 848 Titrino plus additionally supports the titration mode DET (dynamic equivalence point titration).

Live Curve for real time controlAll Titrino plus models feature a display with live curve, thus the user is always informed about the current state of the titration.

Highest precision thanks to new measuring input The Titrino plus is, like the Titrando high-end titrator, equipped with a high-resolution measuring input that guarantees results of outstanding precision.

Easiest installation Installing a Titrino plus is simple. Exchange unit, stirrer and USB compact printer are recognised and config-ured automatically upon connection.

859 Titrotherm

859 Titrotherm – thermometric titration with Thermoprobe

Thermometric titration is a versatile determination method and an ideal complement to potentiometric titration. In principle it is suitable for any reaction that produces a sufficiently large temperature change in the sample solution. It is particularly suitable for applica-tions for which

no suitable potentiometric sensor is available,no suitable reference electrode exists,the sample would affect or even destroy the indica-tor electrode,no suitable solvent is available for potentiometry.

The 859 Metrohm Titrotherm combines innovative sensor technology with the titration know-how from Metrohm. The temperature sensor (Thermistor) is based on semiconductor technology and has a response time of 0.3 s and a resolution of 10–5 K. This makes the Thermoprobe the ideal sensor for thermometric titra-tions, as it can follow any temperature change rapidly and precisely.

The Dosino technology from Metrohm has defined a new standard in volumetric titration. The dosing unit with its drive motor is mounted onto the reagent bot-tle and guarantees maximum precision with minimum space requirements.

Karl Fischer water determination is one of the most fre-quently used laboratory methods world-wide. In con-trast to other water determination methods it is spe-cific, fast and the amount of instrumentation required is very small.

With an application range of 0.1% to 100% water, volumetric Karl Fischer titration is used in a wide variety of industries. The advantage of volumetry is that not only liquid samples but also solid or pasty samples can be put directly into the titration vessel. No matter whether you want to determine water in food, cosmetics or pharmaceutical products, with Metrohm KF titrators you are always right.

As far as quantities in the trace range (10 μg to 200 mg water absolute) are concerned, coulometry is the optimal method to determine water in liquids, solids and gases. Coulometry is also an absolute method and therefore requires no titre determination.

For difficult samples, we offer intelligent solutions for sample preparation, e.g. the KF oven technique or sample pulverisation with a homogeniser included in the system.

Due to high sample throughput the use of automated systems pays for itself very quickly. Metrohm KF auto-mation offers you sophisticated techniques for both volumetric and coulometric KF titration.

Karl Fischer Titrando890/901 Titrando

Karl Fischer titrators for the modern titration lab

Due to their simple and intuitive user guidance, the KF Titrandos are the optimal instruments both for routine work and for demanding applications in development laboratories. With the KF Titrando you have a titration system than can be adapted to meet all imaginable requirements without any compromises at all.

An electrode test and the specially created parameter «Safety stop» prevent the cell from overflowing during conditioning, i.e. conditioning is stopped after a certain time or the addition of a certain amount of KF reagent (Laboratory safety). The sophisticated control algo-rithm of the Titrando is adapted to the characteristics of the Karl Fischer reaction and guarantees results of outstanding precision.

Choose your favorite! Both the 901 Titrando and the 890 Titrando can be used either as a stand-alone sys-tem with Touch Control or via a PC using the tiamo™ software.

901 Titrando

In addition to the Karl Fischer mode (KFT), the 901 Titrando also features the SET mode, allowing titra-tions to a predefined endpoint. With the high-resolu-tion, galvanically separated measuring interface with additional digital measuring input for intelligent elec-trodes «iTrodes» it is also capable of performing high-precision pH measurements.

Thanks to the four MSB connections, up to four 800 Dosino dosing systems can be connected to the 901 Titrando. These can be used for titration, but also for the automated addition of sample, standard and aux-iliary solutions such as solubility promoters. All liquid handling commands are also available.

Because of its special properties the 800 Dosino is the optimal dosing system for KF titration. Thanks to the «Empty» command the Dosino can be completely emp-tied; as a result opening and cleaning the dosing unit is no longer necessary. In contrast to the exchange unit, repeated rinsing before titre adjustment is no longer necessary; you save both time and reagents.

890 Titrando

The 890 Titrando offers the same high-end features as the 901 Titrando (except digital measuring input), but is limited to the KF mode and titrates only with the well-proven exchange unit. In addition up to three 800 Dosino dosing systems can be connected and used for the automated addition of sample, standard and auxil-iary solutions.

KF Coulometers851/852 Titrando

Coulometry is the ideal method for water determina-tion in the trace range (10 μg to 200 mg water abso-lute) for analysing liquids, solids and gases. Further-more, coulometry is an absolut method, which is why no titration determination is necessary.

With the 851 Titrando, coulometric titrations can be performed rapidly and easily. The 852 Titrando enables not only coulemetric but also volumetric Karl Fischer titrations.

Bromine index The bromine index can be determined with the 851 Titrando and the 852 Titrando. No additional accessory parts are required for the measurements. The conventional coulometric titration cell and the generator electrode with diaphragm can also be used for the bromine index determination. Only the anolyte and the catholyte need to be adjusted.

Automatic titration start It can easily happen that the sample gets injected into the titration vessel before starting the titration before-hand. In such cases, the water in the sample is condi-tioned away and the measurement must be repeated. You don’t have to worry about this potential problem with the 851 Titrando or the 852 Titrando. The instrument starts the titration automatically, as soon as the sample is added. Thus, you will save on reagents, sample and, above all, on valuable time.

Dosing Unit and Dosino Dosinos and Dosing Units can be connected to the new coulometer at one of the four MSB ports. In combination with the two Titrandos, these can be used for the adding of sample, standard or auxiliary solutions such as solubility promoters. In addition, the replacement of reagents can be automated, which means that the cell does not need to be opened, thus eliminating the possibility of moisture entering it. As a result, long conditioning times following a change of reagent are avoided.

Coulometric and volumetric titrations If the water content of the samples should be too high for coulemetric determination, this is not a prob-lem when the 852 Titrando is used. The instrument enables analysis of samples with water content levels ranging from a few micrograms all the way up to 100%.

KF Coulometers756/831 KF Coulometer

The Metrohm KF Coulometers are suitable for precise water determinations in the trace range (1 ppm...10%). They are available with two different types of genera-tor electrodes. The diaphragm-less generator electrode requires only one reagent and is practically mainte-nance-free. The use of the generator electrode with diaphragm is preferred for the following applications: very low water content (< 100 μg water absolute), when ketone reagents are used or with a high content of solubility promoter (> 10%).

With or without printer – choose as you prefer! The 756 KF Coulometer is equipped with a built-in ther-mal printer. However, just like the 831 KF Coulometer, you can also connect an external printer or connect the instrument to a PC, in which case you can choose between the Metrodata Vesuv and tiamo™ software.

Our KF Coulometers come with a complete titration cell and many accessories. KF Coulometers with the diaphragm generator electrode are delivered with the 728 Magnetic Stirrer as part of the accessories.

Thermal sample preparation874 USB Oven Sample Processor

The 874 Oven Sample Processor opens up new pos-sibilities for water determinations in samples that are either insoluble, cause side reactions or for any other reasons cannot be placed directly into the titration ves-sel. Using the oven method, these problems can be avoided, as the water is separated from the sample matrix.

How the oven technique works: The samples are placed in the oven in hermetically sealed sample vials. Heating the sample releases the water, which is trans-ferred in a stream of carrier gas to the KF cell, where the Karl Fischer titration takes place.

Sample preparation: Sample preparation for the oven technique is very simple. All that has to be done is weighing out the sample into the vial and then seal-ing it. Hermetically sealing the vial with a septum also reliably prevents moisture absorption from the atmo-sphere.

Field of application: The oven method is suitable for liquid and solid samples and can be used with both volumetric and coulometric KF titrators.

Advantages of the oven method at a glance:

Reproducible analysis conditions for each sample – benefit: much higher precision of resultsReduction of manual preparation steps to a mini-mum

•

•

Considerable savings in timeNo contamination of the oven by the sample, so no carryover or memory effectsImproved water release from the sample, because the carrier gas does not just pass over the sample but is led directly through itLower reagent consumption, as the titration solution needs to be changed only at infrequent intervals

The 860 KF Thermoprep is designed for thermal sample preparation in Karl Fischer titration.

Numerous substances cannot be analysed by direct Karl Fischer titration as they are not soluble, react with the Karl Fischer reagent or release their water only very slowly or not until heated to high temperatures. Using tightly sealed sample vials, the sample is inserted in the oven. The samples can be subsequently analysed by any volumetric or coulometric KF titrator.

KF Evaporator

The KF Evaporator is used for sample preparation in Karl Fischer titration by means of azeotropic distillation.

As with the oven method, the water is separated from the sample matrix. Because the sample itself remains in the evaporation chamber, the titration vessel and the electrodes are not contaminated. Furthermore, unwan-ted side reactions and matrix effects are avoided.

KF homogenizerPolytron PT 1300 D

With the PT 1300 D you can pulverise and homogenise samples directly in the titration cell. Because sample preparation is carried out directly in the sealed titra-tion vessel, any change of the water content caused by atmospheric humidity is eliminated. Depending on the dispersing tool and type of sample, rotor speeds between 7000 and 30’000 rpm can be set steplessly and exactly. As the Polytron 1300 D is controlled directly either by the Metrohm tiamo™ software or PC or Touch Control the speed can be varied during the measurement; as a result stirring with an additional magnetic stirrer is not necessary.

Examples of applications for the Polytron 1300 D in sparingly soluble substances:

Candies:

Water content is a critical factor during the manufac-ture of candy, even though it is not one of its major components. It determines both the properties of the candy and its taste.

Pharmaceuticals:

The water content of drugs influences their active sub-stance release. In pharmaceutical analyses it is there-fore an important parameter. With the Titrando/Poly-tron system, tablets are dissolved in the KF reagent in

a short time regardless of their coating in a way which immediately releases their water content.

Meat:

Meat usually has a high water content which is nor-mally enclosed in cells. This water can only be released by comminution with a high-frequency homogeniser.

Dried plant material:

In plant material, such as tobacco, the majority of the water is enclosed in cells. The easiest way to release it is by using a high-frequency homogeniser.

The optional 6.2148.030 RS 232/USB Box allows laboratory balances to be connected.

The Dosimat plus is suitable for a wide range of appli-cations with its four dosing modes:

DOS (Dosing)

Push-button dosing, particularly suitable for carrying out manual titrations with a color indicator. From the added volume the result can be automatically calcu-lated and a report printed out. Different calculation variables can be defined as parameters beforehand.

XDOS (Extended Dosing)

Adding a fixed volume: the volume and the dosing rate are predefined. Time-controlled dosing: the volume and the time are predefined. Dosing by dosing rate: the dosing rate and the time are predefined.

If continuous dosing without interruption is required then the 865 Dosimat plus can be operated in tandem mode together with an 805 Dosimat.

CNT D (Content dosing):

This mode is used for the preparation of standards and other solutions. From the size of the starting substance (solid or stock solution) and the predefined target concentration, the 865 Dosimat plus automatically determines the volume of solvent to be added. After completing the dosing, a report featuring all the rel-evant information about the prepared solution can be printed out.

LQT (Liquid transfer):

This mode is used for pipetting and diluting liquids.

Introduction of Automation

The automation of potentiometric measuring methods has gained in importance, as nowadays single deter-minations hardly ever meet the required standards. In contrast to manual determinations, fully automatic ones are more precise, reliable and save time.

Facing large numbers of samples, users are soon forced to consider automating frequent and repetitive analyses, as this allows qualified personnel to be used more efficiently. Even with small series or many differ-ent analyses, automation can be used to achieve faster and more reproducible results.

A uniform sample preparation procedure, which can only be guaranteed by a fully automated system, ensures that results remain identical even over a longer period of time – regardless of the user. Typical prepa-ration steps in daily laboratory routine such as liquid handling (pipetting, transferring), diluting, adding, ther-mostatting, degassing, milling, filtering, filling off and many more can be carried out fully automatically just like the subsequent analysis.

An issue not to be neglected is the safety of labo-ratory staff. The routine handling of typical labora-tory equipment (pipets, burets, etc.) and the use of aggressive chemicals requires the technician's full concentration. Using automated systems in sample preparation minimises contact with hazardous sub-stances and solvents, which helps to increase safety at work.

Metrohm offers a large selection of instruments for automating your analytical and sample preparation procedures. On the following pages you will find more information about different sample changers and fully preconfigured analytical systems.

869 Compact Sample Changer

Economic automationSpace-savingDifferent method templatesEasy to useA total of 12 positionsLive-display

The 869 Compact Sample Changer provides automa-tion on a minimum footprint.

The 869 Compact Sample Changer offers quick and easy automation of Titrino / Titrino plus applications.

For multiple determinations and small series of sam-ples, this sample changer is exactly the right choice. With a total of 12 positions a wide range of titrations can be carried out fully automatically and the electrode is rinsed and/or conditioned between determinations. In order to keep titrant and solvent consumption as low as possible, narrow sample beakers are used as standard, allowing a waste efficient and fast titration procedure.

The large and clearly arranged live display informs about the status of the sample series and allows the user to interrupt the series to determine samples with higher priority.

•••••• As lab space is expensive the 869 Compact Sample

Changer occupies only the bench space of a typical analytical balance.

Different method templates can be used to com-pile and save application-specific methods. Only four parameters need to be set. In addition, the methods can also be printed out or saved electronically via a USB (OTG) connection. Communication between the Compact Sample Changer and Titrino / Titrino plus takes place via remote signals without an additional control box or PC required.

The titration head of the Sample Changer can accom-modate an 802 Rod Stirrer and two additional elec-trodes. The rod stirrer can be connected directly to the instrument and is also controlled by it. Titrant and aux-iliary reagent can be added from the preinstalled buret tips. On request the 869 Compact Sample Changer can be retrofitted with rinsing and aspiration pumps.

Despite its highly competitive price, the 869 Compact Sample Changer offers maximum safety. The splash protection prevents the operator from accidental con-tact with chemicals.

USB Sample Processor814 USB Sample Processor

In laboratories single determinations no longer con-form with the requirements. Each and every result has to be confirmed by multiple determinations in order to meet today's tough quality standards. An «auto-matic» titrator without sample changer is therefore basically just a semiautomatic titrator because it is not able to carry out a double or threefold determination automatically: each titration requires the user to take action, which is both tedious and time-consuming.

The benefits of a sample changer are not just found in the time saved by lab personnel: automatic systems control operation sequences and thus improve repro-ducibility and accuracy. Errors can be reduced to a minimum. The system processes the prepared samples irrespective of the time of day. No matter whether automatic sample preparation, liquid handling or sam-ple processing – this Sample Processor generation mas-ters everything that used to be the exclusive domain of laboratory robots.

Thanks to their compact design, even complex tasks can be carried out reliably on the smallest possible footprint. Depending on the sample matrix, the titrated sample solution is aspirated and the titration equipment is rinsed using membrane or peristaltic pumps. These are either mounted already inside the instrument or available as accessories.

Depending on the user's preference, the 814 USB Sam-ple Processor can be controlled by Touch Control, PC Control or using the tiamo™ titration software. The method examples provided make creating your own methods perfectly easy.

Maximum sample throughput with minimal effort!

Considering the large number of samples and ever more complicated sample preparation steps, the use of robots becomes more important, even in analytical laboratories. The more working steps that have to be carried out per sample, the more worthwhile is the professional automation of these steps. This is not just a matter of transferring liquids from one beaker to the next in order to analyse the sample – these days cus-tomers expect the simplification of the whole analytical process from sample preparation to carrying out mul-tiple determinations.

Reproducibility and accuracy are key criteria of analyses and thus are one of the main challenges for automa-tion. Basic operations in modern automation such as pipetting, transferring, taking aliquots, dosing and dispensing have become perfectly easy thanks to the Robotic Sample Processor generation.

Using the 786 Swing Head a maximum number of sample vessels can always be placed on the rack enabling even very large series to be processed. Depending on the vessel sizes and the application, this maximum is between 28 and 160 positions (standard racks).

Processing samples in parallel is easy with the Robotic Sample Processor XL. While the pipetted sam-

ple volume is being titrated at an external work station (optional), the pH of the next sample waiting for analy-sis can be determined or the next sample prepared. Thus the time per analysis is reduced to a minimum.

The Sample Processor can be controlled either by the Touch Control operating unit, PC Control or by the tiamo™ titration software. The method examples supplied make method creation perfectly easy.

The 864 Robotic Balance Sample Processor TAN/TBN offers fast and convenient sample preparation com-bined with the analysis of petrochemical products in one system.

The sample is placed in a beaker on the sample rack and a portion of it is pipetted and weighed into the titration beaker fully automatically. After sample transfer and weighing, the sample is diluted with

••••••

•••

solvent. The TAN or TBN value is then determined by titration. After the analysis the titration beaker is emptied and the titration equipment is cleaned directly inside the beaker.

The sample rack can accommodate 20 sample and titration beakers (6.1459.300) each as well as 20 pipetting tips (6.1562.240) for sample transfer. These 10 mL tips are picked up, filled and stripped off after weighing so that cross-contamination-free sample transfer is absolutely guaranteed. Time and amount of work per sample is minimised. The only thing that needs to be ensured is that enough sample is in the beaker.

The combined automation of sample preparation and analysis in a single system increases reproducibility-andaccuracy of results as the sample is weighed in where it will be analysed. If necessary, the equipment can be cleaned more intensely by using an additional external rinsing station combined with a second 843 Pump Station.

The complete preparation and analysis system is con-trolled by the approved titration software tiamo™. Each preparation step (including the sample amount weighed in) is documented in a database as are the titration results for each single sample.

Systems for sample preparationRobotic Soliprep

For a long time now Metrohm's automation program has enabled the transfer of titration applications to a fully automated system. The Robotic Soliprep is a new version of the proven 815 Robotic USB Sample Proces-sor which makes daily routine work much easier. The primary field of application of the Robotic Soliprep sys-tems is professional sample preparation.

The Robotic Soliprep family consists of three packages that cover various standard sample preparation steps.

The Robotic Titration Soliprep enables homoge-nising and titrating solid samples quickly and conveniently. A maximum of 59 samples can be processed in a single series; depending on the appli-cation the sample volumes can be between 50 and 100 mL. The sample only needs to be weighed out into the beaker and placed on the sample rack. The sample is then pulverized by the Polytron 1300 D. After homogenisation the sample is titrated.

The Robotic Filtration Soliprep enables homogenis-ing and filtering solid samples fast and with maximum convenience. Up to 24 samples can be placed on the rack. The sample is then homogenised by the Polytron 1300 D. During the following preparation steps the Polytron tool is rinsed at the external rinsing station. After homogenisation an aliquot of the sample is aspirated and then filtered through a standard syringe attachment filter (Luer connection). The Dosino dis-pensing system used for sample transport forces the sample through the filter at a constant speed ensur-

ing optimum filtration results. Needle and filter are changed for each sample and are safety ejected into the collection container after use.

The Robotic Flexible Soliprep enables homogenis-ing, filtering and diluting solid samples fast and with maximum convenience. Up to 10 samples can be placed on the rack. All further steps are carried out as described for the Robotic Filtration Soliprep. The filtrate can then be pipetted either directly or after additional dilution into septum-sealed vials (11.6 mm).

Once the series has been processed, the samples can be easily removed from the rack in order to place them on the analyzer (e.g. IC or HPLC). The control of this preparation system is carried out by the proven and flexible tiamo™ titration software, which also docu-ments the individual preparation steps for each sample in a database.

Membrane pumps

Titration often requires the pumping of liquids. With automation in particular, the aspiration of the titrated sample solution is very convenient. After the pre-programmed rinsing and aspiration cycles have been carried out automatically, the cleaned sample beakers and electrodes used are immediately ready for the next determination. The waste is transferred to a canister for convenient disposal.

The 823 Membrane Pump is a very versatile pump. It has been specially designed for use in factories and laboratories and can be used for a wide range of appli-cations. It is suitable for transferring all types of liquid media and, with its capacity of at least 450 mL/min, opens up a wide range of applications.

The 843 Pump Station (membrane) has two built-in membrane pumps. These can be controlled either via the interface by remote signals or manually by pressing keys.

Both instruments are available in different versions; these mainly differ in the accessories they are supplied with.

Peristaltic pumps

Titration often requires the pumping of liquids. With automation in particular, the aspiration of the titrated sample solution is very convenient. After the pre-pro-grammed rinsing and aspiration cycles have been car-ried out automatically, the cleaned sample beakers and electrodes are immediately ready for the next determi-nation. The waste is transferred to a canister for conve-nient disposal. Membrane pumps cannot be used with liquids that contain solids such as precipitated silver chloride.

In this case a persitatlic pump like the 772 Pump Unit is the preferred choice, as it enables the use of tubing made of the most different materials, which can be chosen according to the medium to be pumped. The Pump Unit comes with one piece of tubing for aqueous media and another one for organic solvents as standard.

The 843 Pump Station (peristaltic) has two built-in peristaltic pumps. These can be controlled either via the interface by remote signals or manually by pressing keys.

Additional equipment for Sample Processors for moni-toring the filling level of rinsing or waste canisters via Remote. It prevents pumps from running dry and/or canisters from overflowing and is suitable for use with aqueous solutions, solvents and suspensions.

The Level Control can register both high liquid levels (e.g. warning that a waste container is about to over-flow) and low liquid levels (e.g. storage container is about to run dry). Thanks to the conductivity measure-ment technique the level sensors can be used in differ-ent media.

The sensor signal is registered by the Level Control and transmitted as a signal level to a remote connection of an automated system. This means that the Level Con-trol can be used in all Metrohm systems in which it is possible to scan remote lines.

Additional device for controlling up to four external devices such as pumps or valves with mains connection or direct current consumers via TTL signals, including connection cable for devices with a 25-pin «remote» interface.

Automated systems require the switching of heaters, pumps, valves, thermostats or other external devices. This requires the use of relays to switch mains or low-voltage supplies on and off as necessary. The switching should take place via remote lines from a Titrino, Tit-rando, sample changer or other Metrohm instrument. The Relay Box meets all these requirements on a very small footprint.

The Relay Box provides four voltage outputs. Two 115/230 V AC outputs are used for switching the mains voltage. The maximum power delivery per out-put is 1'150 W, so that the instrument can also be used for providing power to high-consumption devices such as heating baths or thermostats.

In addition, the Relay Box has two DC outputs, whose voltages can be set to 5, 10, 18 or 24V.

•••

Various Metrohm devices can address the Relay Box via their remote interfaces. Regardless of the type of device, a single standard cable is all that is required for communication. The Relay Box scans the 14 input lines and switches the assigned voltage outputs accordingly.

Swing Heads

Additional equipment for the Robotic Sample Proces-sor XL for transferring / pipetting from smaller sample vessels into larger titration vessels on a rack or into an external titration cell that can be attached to the side of the work station.

If a Swing Head is used then the number of samples and their sizes can be varied within a wide range. This increased flexibility results from the considerable exten-sion of the range of positions that can be reached on the Sample Processor. The Swing Head works with highest accuracy: it moves pipette / transfer tips from one position to the next, millimetre by millimetre. Even sample transfer into an external titration cell is car-ried out fully automatically, thus greatly increasing the flexibility of the Sample Processor. While the trans-ferred sample is analysed in the cell, the next sample is already being prepared; this means an additional gain in time. In addition, the Swing Head can also be equipped with Robotic Arms that can take up and eject tools or serve as a holder for a homogeniser for crushing tablets.

IntroductionMetal traces: total metal and species analysis – quick and easy with voltammetry

The voltammetry instruments from Metrohm have a low price, low running costs and compact dimensions but are great in detecting.

Traces of toxic heavy metals can be analyzed at extremely low concentrations without much trouble. The detection limits are all in the ppt range, so that the necessary sensitivity can always be achieved. For ion speciation in analytes voltammetry is the method of choice.

Trace metal analyses can be carried out with the same or better sensitivity for a fraction of the cost of acquir-ing an AAS or ICP instrument. The low running costs are an additional bonus point for voltammetry. Apart from small amounts of reagents only small volumes of pure nitrogen are required. No expensive combustible gases, no reconstruction of the laboratory for special gas supplies and fume hoods, no expensive lamps. And no time-consuming calibration of the analytical system.

Convincing applications

Analysis of metal traces

Total concentration can be determined by both voltam-metry and spectroscopic methods. With voltammetry, however, it is possible to distinguish between the dif-ferent oxidation states of metal ions and to specify the biological availability of heavy metals. Free and bound metal ions can be differentiated from each other. This makes voltammetry an essential tool for environmental

analysis. Spectroscopy allows comparable statements to be made only after complicated seperation of metal species. Due to the compact size the instrument can also be used in mobile laboratories.

Samples with a high ionic concentration are not a problem for voltammetry. Voltammetry is also pre- destined for the analysis of:

water, wastewater and sea waterfoodstuffssalts, pure chemicalselectroplating baths

Specific analysis of organic chemicals

Not only metals but also various organic compounds can be determined by voltammetry. The technique is used in organic chemistry, e.g. for the analysis of contaminants, and in the pharmaceutical industry for the determination of the concentration of the active substance.

Examples of interesting determinations

4-carboxybenzaldehyde in terephthalic acidfree styrene in polystyrenevitamins in fruit and vegetable juices, vitamin formulations

Determination of anions

Some special anions can also be determined by voltam-metry. The analysis of the following environmentally relevant anions is particularly interesting:

cyanidesulfidenitritenitrate

CVS – Cyclic Voltammetric Stripping Determination of additives in electroplating baths

Cyclic Voltammetric Stripping Analysis (CVS) and Cyclic Pulse Voltammetric Stripping Analysis (CPVS) are widespread methods used in the plating industry for the determination of organic additives in electro-plating baths. A simply constructed, robust and favor-ably-priced rotating disk electrode made of platinum is used for these analyses; this electrode is built into the VA stand instead of the otherwise used Multi-Mode Electrode. For many technical coatings, particularly in PCB manufacture in the electronics industry, this method is an essential part of the production control process. The most important fields of application are acid copper baths as well as tin-lead baths. The quan-titative determination of the additives is carried out by utilizing their influence on the deposition of the main components of the electroplating bath. As the meas-urement corresponds to a process which is similar to the production process, the activity of the additives and therefore their effectiveness in the electroplating process is measured directly.

Quantification of the various types of additives requires special calibration techniques; these are all implemented in the new 797 VA Computrace: The so-called brighteners are determined by using the Lin-ear Approximation Technique (LAT) or the Modified Linear Approximation Technique (MLAT). Dilution Titration (DT) is used for the determination of the sup-pressors.

With CVS or CPVS the concentration of the additives can be determined exactly. The effective concentration of the particular additive in the bath sample is shown directly and printed out in mL additive per liter bath. This means that topping up to achieve the set concen-tration can be carried out very exactly. This guarantees continuous interference-free operation of the unit. Accuracy of analytical results in particular has helped this method to become widely accepted in the electro-plating industry.

Other methods, such as the classical Hull cell method, do not allow the concentration to be determined, but can only be used to assess the quality of the metallic layer which has been deposited.

To carry out the determination one of the pre-installed methods is loaded. After a few parameters have been adapted, the analysis can be started. Ready-to-use methods are included for the most important types of bath from leading manufacturers; these have been worked out in our application laboratory.

Instruments for voltammetry and CVS797 VA Computrace

Simple operation

The 797 VA Computrace consists of a VA Stand with built-in potentiostat/galvanostat connected to a PC via the USB port. Control, data acquisition and evaluation are carried out by the PC software supplied, which runs under Microsoft Windows™ 2000, Windows™ XP Professional or Windows™ Vista. Due to the well- laid-out program structure the simplicity of operation is unsurpassed. All the methods described in the Metrohm Application Bulletins and Application Notes have already been pre-installed. Method modifications require changing of only a few parameters.

Fields of application

Carrying out classical trace analyses ...

of metal ions or other analytes after calibration by standard addition or calibration curve down to the ultratrace range (ppt) is one of the most important fields of application of the 797 VA Computrace. Evalu-ation is carried out automatically and can be controlled and reprocessed at the PC. Standard additions can, of course, be carried out automatically by using Dosinos.

... and determining additives in electroplating baths.

These new methods represent the second most impor-tant field of application. With the 797 VA Computrace the determination of additives in electroplating baths is possible for the first time. All the necessary techniques

for data recording, evaluation and calibration have been implemented in the software; methods for impor-tant, often used bath chemicals have already been optimized and pre-installed.

Only with the 797 VA Computrace is it possible to carry out CVS analyses and classical trace metal determination with a single instrument. This means that both investment costs and running costs can be reduced, as can the familiarization time for the operat-ing staff.

The «Exploratory» mode for method development and training

is characterized by an intuitive user interface. This has been reduced to the most important functions that are necessary for carrying out simple electrochemi-cal experiments. After entering a few parameters a voltammogram can be taken; the effects of changing parameter settings on the curve can be seen directly. A direct comparison of the voltammograms is the greatest strength of the «Exploratory» mode. It has been specially developed for training purposes in elec-trochemistry, but also helps in developing the optimal method for solving an analytical problem.

Sample preparation for trace analysis705 UV Digester

Digestion is decisive for the reliability of trace and ultra trace analyses in natural sample matrices. The 705 UV Digester is a sample digestion unit proven in prac-tice. It is used for sample preparation in spectroscopy, polarography, voltammetry and ion chromatography to eliminate the organic matrix. ICP-AES, graphite-furnace and flame AAS also benefit from the 705 UV Digester.

The instrument has been designed for the digestion of water samples free from suspended matter that contain low to moderate concentrations of organic material, for example, natural surface waters. Owing to their low content in heavy metals, these samples are very sensitive to contamination. The advantage of UV photolysis is that only a little hydrogen peroxide has to be added and consequently the blank values can be kept very low. Digestion by UV photolysis is based on the photolytic generation of OH radicals, which in turn react with organic compounds and degrade them. Hydrogen peroxide is used as an initiator of the radi-cal reaction. The radiant energy of the mercury lamp is converted to heat and this accelerates the digestion.

Simultaneous digestion in 12 or 16 quartz sample tubes, depending on the sample volumeAs only minimal amounts of expensive digestion chemicals are needed (typically 50 μL), the blank value is virtually zeroThe costs and the load on the environment are mini-mal

•

•

•

The digested solution can be used directly without the need for aliquot sampling or topping upThe digestion temperature of approx. 90 °C means most effective digestion and practically no losses of volatile elements

Oxidation stability of fats and oils743 Rancimat

A new era in the determination of the oxidation stability of natural fats and oils

The 743 Rancimat as a modern, PC-controlled instru-ment allows the comfortable determination of oxi-dation stability. Disposable reaction vials reduce the amount of cleaning of the accessories to the absolute minimum. This saves both time and money. In addition, accuracy and reproducibility are significantly of results improved. With the help of the certified temperature sensor in the GLP set it is now possible to adjust the temperature very precisely and reproducibly, which improves the comparability of the results even further. The software of the third Rancimat generation with automatic data recording and evaluation as well as a measurement database allows the comfortable man-agement of large amounts of data.

Oxidation stability of natural fats and oils in the food industry

The determination of the oxidation stability of oils and fats is the classical application for the 743 Rancimat. The so-called induction time thus determined char-acterizes the resistance of oils and fats to oxidation. Instead of induction time, the term oil stability index (OSI) is frequently used.

The Rancimat method is an automated version of the previously used and extremely complicated AOM method (Active Oxygen Method). The Rancimat method is used as a standard test in the food indus-

try for quality control during the manufacture of fats and oils or for checking incoming goods in processing industries. In addition to vegetable oils and fats, it is also possible to check the oxidation stability of animal fats such as hog fat, tallow or fish oil. Foodstuffs may contain added antioxidants in order to slow down the oxidative decomposition of the oils and fats. By using the 743 Rancimat it is possible to characterize the effectiveness of antioxidants.

Oxidation stability of foodstuffs and cosmetics

The 743 Rancimat can also be used for the determina-tion of the oxidation stability of foods containing fats.

In addition to foodstuffs, the oxidation stability of cosmetics or cosmetic additives containing fats can be determined with the 743 Rancimat.

Oxidation stability of biodiesel873 Biodiesel Rancimat

A new era in the determination of the oxidation stability of biodiesel (FAME)

The 873 Biodiesel Rancimat is tailor-made for the determination of the oxidation stability of biodiesel, diesel fuel and mixtures of biodiesel with diesel fuel. The accessories optimized for this application comprise elongated reaction vessels and special, chemically resistant connection tubings. To minimize cleaning expenditure some of the accessories are disposables. This has the added advantage of significantly improv-ing the accuracy and reproducibility of the measure-ments. The software offers automatic data recording and evaluation as well as a measurement database and thus allows the comfortable management of large amounts of data.

Oxidation stability of biodiesel (fatty acid methyl esters, FAME)

In addition to other alternative fuels such as ethanol, methanol or biogas (methane), fatty acid methyl esters are becoming commercially available; these are also known as biodiesel, RME (rapeseed oil methyl esters) or FAME (fatty acid methyl esters). As an alternative, fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEE) are used in some countries. Biodiesel has a relatively short storage life as it is slowly oxidized by atmospheric oxygen. The substances pro-duced by this decomposition can cause motor damage. For this reason oxidation stability is an important qual-ity criterion for biodiesel and is determined regularly during its manufacture. By using the 873 Biodiesel

Rancimat this determination can be carried out simply and reliably. The oxidation process can be slowed down by the addition of antioxidants. The 873 Biodiesel Rancimat can also be used for determining the effec-tiveness of antioxidants.

Thermal stability of PVC763 PVC Thermomat

Automatic determination of the thermal stability of PVC

With the 763 PVC Thermomat Metrohm offers the first fully PC-controlled instrument for the determination of the thermal stability of PVC plastics. The software for data recording and storing in a database with auto-matic evaluation of the curves is included in the scope of delivery. Two heating blocks allow the measurement of 8 samples at one or two different temperatures. Up to four 763 PVC Thermomats can be connected to a PC and operated simultaneously by the included soft-ware. Highest flexibility is achieved by individual man-agement of each sample and heating block. Disposable sample reaction vessels reduce the cleaning procedure to a minimum.

Thermal stability of PVC

Chlorinated plastics based on polyvinylchloride (PVC) decompose at elevated temperatures releasing gaseous HCl. This product of the thermal decomposition is blown off by a stream of nitrogen into the measuring cell filled with distilled water. The thermal stability of PVC materials is defined as the time that elapses until HCl is released, and is determined by measuring the conductivity in the measuring cell.

ProcessLab – an introduction

ProcessLab is the robust analysis system for routine analysis on the factory floor. Wherever various param-eters have to be measured at several sampling points, ProcessLab is the superior solution. Custom-made for your analytical requirements, ProcessLab guarantees reliable analytical results and safe process control. Moreover, ProcessLab is easy to use.

ProcessLab – the atline analyzer for routine analysis in the plant

In an atline system the sample is taken manually and fed into the system right beside the process line. Thus, various samples from different process stages or units can easily be analysed.

In contrast, in an online system the sample is fed auto-matically to the analyzer using a bypass. Several baths or sampling points can then only be covered at great expense.

ProcessLab – the innovative solution for process monitoring

Due to the proximity to the process, the results for the relevant process parameters are available directly after sampling and on site analysis. Process conditions can be immediately adjusted to keep it within the process window and prevent out-of-spec results. No time is lost on waiting for results from the laboratory. ProcessLab is perfect for quick and independent process monitoring in production facilities.

The modular analysis system

ProcessLab is an entirely modular analysis system. As it is customized, it is perfectly adapted to meet your spe-cific analytical and technical process requirements.

Analysis systems with Touch

Each system consists of an analysis module and an operating unit. The analysis module is assembled according to the user’s specific requirements and contains exactly those components that are necessary to carry out the desired task. The operating unit with protected keyboard and touchpad permits easy and convenient operation. For even easier use an operating unit with touch screen is optionally available.

Both the analysis module and the operating unit are mounted in a robust, splash-water-protected housing and are therefore ideally suited for use under rough conditions in production facilities.

Modular wet-chemistry part

The wet-chemistry part of an analysis module is modu-lar in design, just like the electronics part. The two parts are hermetically separated from one another. Modern interfaces such as Ethernet and USB 2.0 allow the spatially separate installation of the analysis mod-ules or the separation of operating unit and analysis module. These are important features for analyses in clean rooms or in hazardous areas.

The system is controlled by a built-in industrial PC and the user-friendly control and monitoring software ProcessLab Manager. Its user-defined interface is easy to comprehend and permits the starting of complex analysis sequences at a single push of a button. These analysis sequences are based on the high-performance software tiamo™ for ProcessLab from Metrohm. Thanks to its compatibility with the tiamo™ software, laboratory methods that have already been developed can be easily and quickly adapted for ProcessLab.

Proven Titrando technology

ProcessLab is also equipped with a Metrohm Dosing & Measuring Controller (MDM). The MDM Controller is a high-end titration system for up to four 800 Dosino dosing systems. Dynamic (DET) and monotonic (MET) titration, endpoint titration (SET), Karl Fischer titra-tion (KFT), measurements with ion-selective electrodes (MEAS CONC) and liquid handling are possible with just one instrument. A maximum of two MDM Control-lers can be built into one analysis module, so that up to eight 800 Dosino dosing systems are supported.

Communication with the process surroundings

Digital and analogue Input/Output components (I/O) allow the system to be easily integrated in the process surroundings. Thus it can react to different input sig-nals, e.g. automatically measure different parameters depending on the sample, trigger an alarm if limits are infringed or transmit measured values as analogue 4...20 mA signals.

With the second Ethernet connection (RJ45) ProcessLab can be easily integrated into a local network or com-pletely operated by remote control. Analysis data can be exported to any LIMS system or made available to a process control system.

Combined modules

The modularity of the system means that several analy-sis modules can be combined to form a single and complete system. This results in simply structured and easily manageable analysis units. Samples can be pro-vided manually or – far more conveniently – by using a sample processor.

Example of a system for one parameter

On this and the following pages, a selection of typical ProcessLab systems is presented. Depending on the analyses to be carried out, a simple or a more complex system is used. The system described consists of a simply constructed analysis module. It contains a measuring vessel with magnetic stirrer, a sample loop for automatic measur-ing of the sample and an 800 Dosino dosing system for the exact addition of a titrant. Also integrated are the necessary peristaltic pumps for automatic rinsing and draining of the measuring vessel. With this setup, the simple and fully automatic determination of one analytical parameter is possible. The sample is mea-sured automatically, transferred to the vessel and the concentration of the analyte is determined titrimetri-cally.

850 Professional ICProfessional IC 850 – Introduction

Intelligent Ion Chromatography

The 850 Professional IC is the first professional ion chromatography system with intelligent system com-ponents that are optimally matched to one another. The way from the sample to a precise result has now become easier, as the system thinks for itself and makes logical decisions on its own.

Intelligence in the hardware of the 850 Professional IC, - iPump - iDetector - intelligent DosinoIntelligence in the MagIC Net™ softwareIntelligence in the Metrosep iColumns

These are the intelligent system components that monitor and optimise all functions and, if required, will also document them in an FDA-compatible form.

Metrohm inline ultrafiltration and dialysis


Metrohm Inline Ultrafiltration

Modern ion chromatography recommends all samples to be filtered prior to injection. Separation columns with particle sizes below 10 μm require absolutely particle-free sample solutions. Unfiltered solutions can increase pressure on the column which in some cases can radically reduce the life span of the column. Manual filtration is usually carried out by means of disposable filter cartridges with a pore size of 0.45 μm or less. These become clogged very quickly, particularly with samples containing very fine particles. Sample changers with filter caps are used as an alternative. Their pore size is often larger than that of disposable filters. However, they are expensive and there is still a risk of clogging.With Metrohm Inline Ultrafiltration, which belongs to the membrane separation techniques, these problems no longer apply. The samples are placed directly on the sample rack. When the samples are processed the sample flow is channelled into the lower chamber of the ultrafiltration cell and passes along the membrane and into the waste container. In the upper chamber of the cell a peristaltic pump creates a vacuum and draws the sample solution through the ultrafiltration memb-rane. The filtered sample solution enters the injection loop and is then injected. Less than 20% of the ori-ginal solution is removed as filtrate, the remainder flows directly into the waste container. This, together with the geometrical arrangement of the cell, virtually eliminates the formation of a filter cake which could block the membrane. Metrohm Inline Ultrafiltration is particularly suitable for samples with a light to medium load, for example drinking water, surface water, waste-water, digestion solutions, extracts.

Metrohm Inline Dialysis

Highly polluted samples require complex and laborious sample preparation steps before they can be analyzed. Metrohm Inline Dialysis provides a considerable ratio-nalization of the whole process. Samples must meet just one condition: they must be liquid or be able to be brought into liquid form and they need to be largely homogeneous. Larger particles can be removed by centrifuging, if necessary. The sample solution is then dialyzed in the dialysis cell according to the method patented by Metrohm (European Patent 0 820 804, US Patent 5,861,097). Due to this special «Inline Stopped-Flow Dialysis» method a virtually complete dialysis is obtained. This means that the acceptor solution has the same ionic concentration as the original sample (equilibrium dialysis). The acceptor solution is then injected directly into the ion chromatograph where it is analyzed. Whereas in ultrafiltration the sample solu-tion is filtered through the membrane as a result of a difference in pressure, the driving force in dialysis is the difference in concentration between the two sides. The ions to be determined diffuse through the membrane, but no sample solution is forced through the membra-ne. This means that no filter cake is formed that could block the membrane. By means of this technique it is possible to determine anions and cations even in cutting oil emulsions, biodiesel, dairy products or body fluids such as blood and urine.If the system is programmed so that the next sample is dialyzed during the current run, the total analysis takes about the same time as direct injection.

«ProfIC 3 – Cation» – Professional IC system with inline dialysis

Professional IC system for the fully automatic deter-mination of cations or anions (non-suppressed) with Metrohm inline dialysis. «ProfIC 3» safely masters demanding analytical tasks in ion chromatography. It is easy to use and extremely reliable.

«ProfIC 3» features intelligent system components such as the iPump and the iDetector and provides space for a total of three iColumns.

The Professional IC system «ProfIC 3» is equipped with «Inline Stopped Flow Dialysis», which is protected by a Metrohm patent (European Patent 0 820 804, US Patent 5,861,097). This fully automatic sample prepara-tion technique effectively removes particles and colloids from the samples to be analysed. Emulsions, samples containing fats and proteins, body fluids and strongly polluted wastewater can be reliably determined without damaging the analytical column. The driving force behind dialysis is diffusion. This means that only the ions and not the particles can pass through the dialysis membrane. This increases the lifetime of the membrane and, for example, prevents oil droplets from reaching the analytical column through the membrane, as would be the case if filtration was to be used.

The dialysis cell is mounted directly into the 850 Pro-fessional IC. The coordinated operation of the two bidirectional peristaltic pumps at the 858 Professional Sample Processor – Pump and 850 Professional IC – Prep 1 enables the dialysis, which is controlled by MagIC Net™.

Numerous sample racks for volumes 0.5...500 mL are available for the 858 Professional Sample Processor. Dialysis requires at least 10 mL of the sample.

The intelligent 800 Dosino carries out the high-precision sample preconcentration on the precon-centration column, which replaces the sample loop.

This means that it is possible to preconcentrate and analyse more than 50 mL of the sample instead of the 10...20 μL sample used for direct injection via the sample loop. It is also possible to calibrate the system using the 800 Dosino dosing system. In this case it will suffice to work with the single most concentrated stan-dard, of which varying volumes are transferred to the preconcentration column. This means that trace ana-lyses are possible all the way down to the single-digit ppb range, even in routine analysis.

«ProfIC 5» features intelligent system components such as the iPump, the iDetector and the 800 Dosino dosing system and provides space for a total of three iColumns. The MagIC Net™ software monitors and controls the functions of all components.

Reproducibility of the suppression


For each measurement with the Metrohm Suppressor Module «MSM II», a fresh suppressor cartridge is used. Thus, you can always be sure that you are working with a cation exchanger that delivers its full performance: today, tomorrow, and even after years of uninterrupted use. The suppressor is characterized by its pressure stability; it is 100% solvent-resistant and impresses with its long working life. As no sensi-tive membranes are used, the suppressor reaches its equilibrium after a very short time and is then ready for use. That is exactly the reason why we can give a 10years warranty on the «MSM II». The Metrohm Suppressor Module is favorably-priced and robust. Reproducibility of measurements made with the «MSM II» is excellent as is shown by the chromatograms: 30 injections, separation of standard anions on the Metrosep A Supp 5 – 150, eluent 1.0 mmol/L NaHCO

Sequential suppression

Sequential suppression is the combination of chemical suppression using the «MSM II» with Metrohm CO

2

Suppression «MCS». In this way anions can be detected with carbonate/ bicarbonate eluents at the low back-ground conductivity of hydroxide eluents.

The removal of the CO2 prevents the carbonate equi-

librium from negatively affecting the peak areas. The benefit for the user: Peak areas thus obtained are up to 50% larger – at the same concentration and for the same sample volume; this means lower detection limits.No carbonate peak also means no annoying inter-ference with the quantification of certain analyte ani-ons. For example, chloride and carbonate coelute on many polystyrene-divinylbenzene columns. By using the CO

2 suppressor such problems are a thing of the past.

The virtual elimination of the injection peak improves the determination of rapidly eluting anions, for exa-mple fluoride. Although the separation of the injection peak and fluoride peak is already very good on poly-alcohol columns, the detection limits can be improved even further by using the CO

2 suppressor. As the injec-

tion peak is practically no longer visible, considerably larger sample volumes can also be injected.

«ProfIC 3 – Anion» – Professional IC system with inline dialysis

Professional IC system for the fully automatic determination of anions with Metrohm inline dialysis. «ProfIC 3» safely masters demanding analytical tasks in ion chromatography. It is nevertheless simple to use and extremely reliable.


The Professional IC system «ProfIC 3» is equipped with «Inline Stopped Flow Dialysis», which is protected by a Metrohm patent (European Patent 0 820 804, US-Patent 5,861,097). This fully automatic sample prepara-tion technique effectively removes particles and colloids from the samples to be analyzed. Emulsions, samples containing fats and proteins, body fluids and strongly polluted wastewater can be reliably determined without damaging the analytical column. The driving force behind dialysis is diffusion. This means that only the ions and not the particles can pass through the dialysis membrane. This increases the lifetime of the membrane and, for example, prevents oil droplets from reaching the analytical column through the membrane, as would be the case if filtration was to be used.

The dialysis cell is mounted directly into the 850 Pro-fessional IC. The coordinated operation of the two bidirectional peristaltic pumps at the 858 Professional Sample Processor – Pump and 850 Professional IC – Prep 1 enables the dialysis, which is controlled by MagIC Net™.

The anion system is equipped with sequential sup-pression. Very high sensitivity is guaranteed by this unique combination of chemical and downstream CO

Professional IC system for trace analysis of anions. With the «ProfIC 5», concentrations down to the ppb range (μg/L) can be reliably determined. The intelligent 800 Dosino dosing system carries out the high-precision sample preconcentration on the preconcentration column, which replaces the sample loop.

This means that it is possible to preconcentrate and analyse more than 50 mL of the sample instead of the 10...20 μL sample used for direct injection via the sample loop. The system can be calibrated using the 800 Dosino. In this case it will suffice to work with the single most concentrated standard, of which vary-ing volumes are transferred to the preconcentration column. This allows trace analyis right down to the the single digit ppb range even in routine analysis.

Alternative DetectorsAlternative Detectors – Introduction

Ion chromatography has established itself in laborato-ries as a powerful and flexible analytical method. Con-ductivity is used as the classical IC detection method for solving most application problems. By combining it with alternative detection methods the range of analytes as well as the sensitivity and selectivity can be increased even further. Such detectors, for example UV/VIS or electrochemical, can be used either as stand-alone solutions or in combination with a conductivity detector. Moreover, Inline Sample Preparation as well as post-column reaction systems can be used.

Electrochemical (amperometric) detection with the 791 VA Detector is a very sensitive detection method that is used successfully in both HPLC and ion chro-matography. This method is also characterised by its very high selectivity: Only easily oxidizable or reducible substances are detected – chloride or sulphate are not detected and do not interfere with the electrochemical determination, even in high concentrations.

The detector can be used in series or in parallel with other detectors that are normally used in IC or HPLC (e.g. conductivity or UV/VIS detectors).

Numerous electrodes suitable for each amperometric application are available.

Liquid handlingLiquid handling in IC

Sample injection – inline sample preparation

In the beginning there was the syringe – and manual sample injection is still being used. However, in most cases the samples are injected automatically into the ion chromatograph. This starts with a simple peristal-tic pump, which pumps the samples solution to the injector. Additional components such as valves, filtra-tion and dialysis cells, neutralisation modules etc. clear the way for inline sample preparation. The use of the 800 Dosino as a module for sample transfer and in particular as a means for exactly measuring out several solutions and differing volumes, increase these capa-bilities even further. Logical and flexible dilution – i.e. free choice of the dilution factor as well as further dilu-tion should the result be outside the calibration range – is only one of the many applications that have been made feasible with the 800 Dosino.

Automatic eluent preparation

The time-consuming manual production of eluents can be automated. Metrohm offers a variety of possibilities for this purpose.

Thus, for example, the 845 Eluent Synthesizer takes over this task and produces eluents from up to four freely selectable concentrates and one main component. Compared to the traditional, i.e. manual preparation of eluents, the fully automated system guarantees precise mixtures and excellent «batch-to-batch» reproducibility in «Mix Control».

On the other hand, the eluent can also be produced directly inline. The 849 Level Control and the 800 Dosino are connected for this purpose, e.g. to the 850 Professional IC System. Controlled completely by MagiC Net™, the 849 Level Control monitors the respective eluent level while the Dosino performs all of the neces-sary dosing and liquid handling commands. The inline eluent production proceeds parallel to the determina-tion. The system enables running ion chromotographic analyses continuously for more than one month with-out requiring eluent to be produced manually.

The error-prone and time-consuming eluent production can be automated at low additional cost.

811 Online IC Instruments

Metrohm know-how as a solid basis

For decades, Metrohm instruments have been used for monitoring production processes. The 811 Online IC and the 821 Compact Online IC benefit from this expe-rience and open up new prospects in online analysis.

Flexibility is everything

The Metrohm Online ICs can be adapted to any IC application. The 1-channel version permits the deter-mination of anions or cations, whereas the 2-channel version of the 811 Online IC can determine anions and cations simultaneously. A 10-way sampling valve is available for each channel. This can be freely pro-grammed; samples from ten different continuously flowing production streams can be brought to each channel. The Online ICs are controlled by a built-in industrial PC. After programming, the instruments are operated by mouse-click. Various calibration routines or sample sequences can be called up. Numerous ions can be determined in each sample stream and the results recorded. The Online ICs are network compat-ible; this means that they can export data and receive

remote control commands. Distance does not matter as diagnoses and parameter settings can be carried out virtually from everywhere via the built-in modem. The user carries out the calibration and system settings; these are password-protected with several access levels available. The 811 Online IC has been designed with a clear focus on simplicity, which means that it can be operated by non-chemists.

821 Compact Online IC Instruments

The 821 Compact Online IC is the little brother of the 811 Online IC. It is based on the proven components of the 861 Advanced Compact IC. In comparison to laboratory instruments the term «Compact» is, of course, relative. The size and weight of the Online IC systems are still considerable, which makes sense con-sidering their use in the production sector.

The 821 Compact Online IC extends the range of industry-conform Metrohm online ion chromatography systems. A maximum of 10 different sample streams can be freely selected and analyzed. The 821 Compact Online IC allows anions to be reliably determined with or without chemical suppression down to the lower ppb range as well as cations. Simple operation, high degree of data security, almost complete insensitivity to power cuts and precise results even under rough con-ditions, e.g. on factory floor, are guaranteed.

Professional IC – SoftwareMagIC Net™

MagIC Net™ software for intuitive and simple operation

It's MagIC! Clear symbols, well-laid-out user interface, intuitive operation, «one-button IC»: That is MagIC Net™.

Complete system monitoring, control cards for cali-brations and measurements, convenient database functions: that is MagIC Net™ too, the intelligent soft-ware – Swiss Made – for controlling and monitoring Metrohm ion chromatography systems.

The MagIC Net™ chromatography software controls the chromatographs of the Professional and Compact IC families and records all data obtained. MagIC Net™ is currently offered in four different versions:

MagIC Net™ Professional supports the complete range of intelligent ion chromatographs and sample changers. It can be used to control all peripheral devices for inline sample preparation and liquid han-dling as well as any other Metrohm or third-party instruments. MagIC Net™ Compact features the complete functions of the MagIC Net™ Professional version, however, only the Compact IC instruments plus one sample changer for automation can be run by the Compact version.MagIC Net™ Multi provides the complete func-tions of MagIC Net™ Professional as a client-server installation.MagIC Net™ Basic is a version especially for the 883 Basic IC plus and dedicated to the demands of education. MagiIC Net™ Basic is part of the instru-ment.

All three versions are characterized by their well-laid-out user interface, clear symbols and intuitive opera-tion. The control and monitoring functions of the MagIC Net™ software are unique: system parameters, service intervals and expiration dates as well as the results of samples and standards can be checked. If a limit is exceeded, defined reactions such as sending a message by E-mail or mobile phone or switching off the system can be triggered. Thanks to the modern data management of MagIC Net™ the user can always keep control, as all necessary information is available immediately.
