1 Introduction
1.1 Range of applications
The Metrohm 726 Titroprocessor is a very versatile analytical instrument. It
has been designed exclusively for use in production plant and laboratories
where it covers a wide range of applications. Together with the Metrohm 717
Sample changer it is very useful when processing large series of samples
covering the whole field of titrations or for different measurement tasks.
Designed as a stand-alone precision titrator and the central unit of a com-
prehensive high-performance analytical system, it is predestined for mas-
tering even the most complex applications with its various measuring inputs
and dosing device interfaces. As a result of its extensive communications
possibilities it does not just work with the wide range of Metrohm titrators,
measuring instruments and dosing units, but can also control or be con-
trolled by any other instruments equipped with a suitable communications
interface. These capabilities mean that it is the right instrument for all auto-
mation tasks imaginable in a modern laboratory and it also offers the possi-
bility of transferring the measuring data and results it produces to an exist-
ing laboratory information management system (LIMS).
Thanks to its extremely adaptable dialog structure and its versatile range of
functions it is not only used by experts for working out complex methods,
but also by routine analysts who wish to make their work easier with prede-
fined methods and as simple a user interface as possible.
1.2 Application possibilities
The 726 Titroprocessor is completely designed for communication:
• Two RS 232C interfaces provide rapid communication with a balance,
PC or LIMS. A parallel interface is available for use with an external
printer.
• GLP-conform printout on the built-in thermal printer or, for versions with-
out printer, on almost any commercially available printer.
