Titration with photometric endpoint recognition is applied in a large number of titration methods.
The main application area lies in complexometric titrations in which other sensors frequently do not operate optimally.
It is also used when potentiometric endpoint indication is not possible, when there is a danger of glass breakage in the food laboratory or contamination by the electrolyte, when no suitable potentiometric indicator electrode is available, when an official method prescribes photometric indication, when the electrode signal is disturbed by sample matrix effects when one wishes to profit from the economical advantages offered by the photometric method compared to more expensive techniques, such as AAS or ICP-AES, or when easy handling, quick and precise measurements are of prime importance.
The new Metrosensor Spectrosense allows users to benefit from the advantages of photometric titration in an optimal way, says Metrohm.
Depending on the application, choose one of the two wavelengths available, 523nm or 610nm.
Modern LEDs serve as the light source; they have an average operating time of 50,000 hours and their light intensity remains high even after long operating times.
The new Spectrosense is not only outstandingly robust, it is also very easy to handle, says Metrohm.
It can be connected to a Titrino or Titrando like an ordinary electrode.
Power is supplied from the stirrer connection of the Titrino or the MSB connection of the Titrando.
If required, an external power adapter can also be used.
