Optrode – New Sensor from Metrohm for Photometric Titrations According to US and EP

Whenever a potentiometric determination of the equivalence point is impossible, but a simple and fast execution of the analyses with the price advantage of titration (compared to methods like AAS, ICP-AES) is wished for, the Optrode is the first choice.

Application examples are numerous:

•    Photometric titrations according to USP and EP (non-aqueous)
•    Determination of the carboxyl end groups (non-aqueous)
•    TAN/TBN according to ASTM D974 (non-aqueous)
•    Chloride in silicone products (non-aqueous)
•    Sulfate determination
•    Fe, Al, Ca in cement
•    Water hardness (total hardness and Ca/Mg)
•    Chondroitin sulfate according to USP

Both new and existing Metrohm titration systems can be equipped with the Optrode. The power supply comes directly via the USB port of a Metrohm instrument (Titrino plus, Ti-Touch, Titrando). In case of older models without USB port power can also be supplied via an optional USB power adapter.
