Method
SET
Command for Set Endpoint Titrations (
SET
).
Principle
With this command titrations to one or two preset endpoints are carried out. The
termination of the titration at the endpoint is either drift-controlled or after a waiting
period. The volume that has been added when the endpoint is reached gives the
calculable reagent consumption.
Reagent addition takes place in three phases during the titration:
• Initial addition
During this phase the dosing rate increases continuously. It starts with
the
Minimum rate
and increases to the
Maximum rate
.
• Continuous addition
In this phase addition is carried out at the
Maximum rate
until the
Con-
trol range
is reached.
• Control range
In this range addition is finely controlled. Shortly before the end point
is reached addition is only carried out at the
Minimum rate
(see "Con-
trol range").
Note
This command is used for rapid routine determinations when the end point does
not change throughout a series or when an excess of reagent must be avoided.
