Although manual titration is used about 60% of the time, automated titration is growing in popularity due to several key advantages. A completely automated system delivers improved accuracy, repeatability, safety, traceability, and it also meets regulatory requirements while freeing up valuable employee time.

What is an automatic titrator used for?

It is used to determine an unknown concentration of a known substance in a sample. The basic principle of the titration is the following: A solution - a so called titrant or standard solution - is added to sample to be analyzed.

How accurate is an auto titrator?

Improved accuracy and precision

A resolution of 10,000–100,000 steps can be achieved with modern auto-titrators. This corresponds to a precision of 5 μL down to 0.5 μL for a 50 mL motor-driven buret. The precision can be further enhanced by using a motor-driven buret with a smaller volume.
