1 Introduction
1.1 Instrument description
The 870 KF Titrino plus is an instrument used for volumetric water content
determination according to Karl Fischer. There are method templates
available which are already configured except for a few parameters. If
parameters are changed, then these will be saved automatically. The
methods can be exported to a connected USB flash drive. This function
makes it possible for you to copy methods quickly and easily from one
instrument to another.
1.1.1 Titration and measuring modes
The following titration and measuring modes are supported:
￭ KFT
Volumetric water content determination according to Karl Fischer.
Measuring modes:
– Ipol (voltametric measurement with selectable polarization cur-
rent)
– Upol (amperometric measurement with selectable polarization
voltage)
1.1.2 Connectors
The instrument is equipped with the following connectors:
￭ MSB connector (Metrohm Serial Bus)
For connecting a stirrer.
￭ USB (OTG) connector
The 6.2151.100 adapter can be used to connect, for example, a
printer, a USB flash drive or a USB keyboard.
￭ Electrode connector
For connecting polarizable electrodes.
￭ Remote connector
For connecting instruments with a remote interface.
1.1.3 Intended use
The 870 KF Titrino plus is designed for usage as a titrator in analytical lab-
oratories. Its main application field is volumetric titration.
This instrument is suitable for processing chemicals and flammable sam-
ples. The usage of the 870 KF Titrino plus therefore requires that the user
have basic knowledge and experience in the handling of toxic and caustic
substances. Knowledge with respect to the application of the fire preven-
tion measures prescribed for laboratories is also mandatory.
