The HI84531 is an easy to use, fast and affordable mini automatic titrator and pH meter designed for low to high levels of alkalinity.
It performs a potentiometric titration with a pH electrode to determine total titratable alkalinity or strong alkalinity in water. A titrant is slowly added to the sample while the pH and temperature are carefully monitored. The software analyzes the resulting titration curve and calculates the volume of titrant required to reach the endpoint. The user can choose either to measure strong alkalinity with a 8.30 pH endpoint (known as phenolphthalein alkalinity) or total alkalinity with a 4.50 pH endpoint (known as bromcresol green-methyl red alkalinity). The dispensed titrant volume is used to automatically calculate the alkalinity, which can be displayed in mg/L or meq/L as CaCO₃.
This mini titrator is also designed to be used as a benchtop pH/mV meter. As a pH meter, it has many features of a professional grade benchtop including automatic calibration up to three points with four available buffers, a 0.01 pH resolution, accuracy of ±0.01 pH, automatic temperature compensation, and comprehensive GLP data.
Hanna’s CAL Check feature analyzes the response of the electrode during the calibration process and alerts the user of potential problems during calibration. The CAL Check function not only ensures an accurate pH reading when used as a pH meter, but also for an accurate titration since the endpoint is determined by a set pH value.
