Electrode test

For polarizable electrodes, an electrode test can be carried out. A check is
made that the electrode is properly connected and that no short-circuit is
present. The electrode test is carried out when the determination is star-
ted. This parameter is available only with I(pol) and U(pol) determinations.

Selection

on | off

Default value

off

Stirrer

When this parameter is switched on, then the stirrer is switched on at the
start of the determination.

Selection

on | off

Default value

on

Stirring rate

Setting the stirring rate. It can be set in steps of –15 to +15. The default
setting 8 corresponds to 1000 U/min. The formula for calculating the rota-
tional speed is specified in chapter 10.2, page 118. The optimum stirring
rate can be tested in the manual control.

The algebraic sign of the stirring rate changes the direction in which the
stirring is done. When the stirrer is viewed from above, this means:

"+": counterclockwise rotation

"–": clockwise rotation

Input range

–15 - 15

Default value

8

Temperature

Manually entered titration temperature. If a temperature sensor is connec-
ted then the temperature will be measured continuously. This value is
used for temperature correction in pH measurements.

Input range

–20.0 - 150.0 °C

Default value

25.0 °C

Titration direction

The titration direction is normally determined automatically from the start
measured value and the set endpoint. It is recommended that, whenever
possible, a positive or negative alteration of the measured value is
entered. If two endpoints have been set then the titration direction will be
defined automatically. In this case the setting will be ignored.
