Method

SET

Command for Set Endpoint Titrations (

SET

).

Principle

With this command titrations to one or two preset endpoints are carried out. The
termination of the titration at the endpoint is either drift-controlled or after a waiting
period. The volume that has been added when the endpoint is reached gives the

calculable reagent consumption.

Reagent addition takes place in three phases during the titration:

Initial addition
During this phase the dosing rate increases continuously. It starts with the

Minimum rate

and increases to the

Maximum rate

.

Continuous addition
In this phase addition is carried out at the

Maximum rate

until the

Control

range

is reached.

Control range
In this range addition is finely controlled. Shortly before the end point is
reached addition is only carried out at the

Minimum rate

(see "Control

range").
