862 Compact Titrosampler

Selection

Selection of configured sensors

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 140. 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

Range

–15 ... 15

Default value

8

Merck CertiPUR
Reference temperature = 25 °C. The buffer type Merck Titrisol must
be selected when using Merck CertiPUR buffers (20 °C).
Special
Up to five calibration buffers can be defined in the method. The auto-
matic buffer detection is not activated in this case. The buffers must be
measured precisely in the specified sequence.
