XDOS – temperature-controlled addition

Example: during the preparation for a nitration 0.3 mol semi-concentrated
hydrochloric acid is to be added to 0.1 mol freshly distilled aniline. During
this process the temperature of the mixture should, if possible, not exceed
10°C.
The 711 Liquino will carry out the reagent addition and control the tempera-
ture.

Preconditions / Preparation

To carry out the above task the following items are required:

•

the new 711 Liquino

•

a Dosino 700 with a 50 mL dosing unit 710

•

a printer with cable if the process is to be documented (see page 12)

•

a four-neck flask with precision glass stirrer shaft

•

a cooling device (if an appropriate cooling bath is used this can even be

switched on and off by the Liquino via the remote interface).

A dosing unit which corresponds to the tubing used for the Dosino must be
defined. This process is described on page 22.

Screw the Dosino 700 on to the bottle containing hydrochloric acid, place
the 0.1 mol aniline in the four-neck flask and carry out the method described
below under intensive stirring. The flask must be cooled continuously. If the
temperature limit of 10 °C is exceeded the Liquino immediately stops the
HCl addition. As soon as the temperature sinks below 10 °C again the
Liquino continues with the addition
