The Ti-50 Automatic Potential Titrator is a precision analytical instrument designed for automated potentiometric titrations in research and quality control laboratories. This benchtop system provides high-resolution measurements with 1/30000 resolution and maintains exceptional stability with ±0.3mV drift over 3 hours, enabling accurate endpoint determination in various analytical procedures.
The instrument incorporates temperature compensation capabilities with 0.1°C resolution and ±0.2°C accuracy, ensuring reliable results across varying laboratory conditions. The compact 340×400×400 mm footprint accommodates standard laboratory benchtops while providing the precision required for critical analytical measurements in pharmaceutical, environmental, and materials science applications.
How It Works
Potentiometric titration operates on the principle of measuring electrode potential changes as a function of titrant volume addition. The Ti-50 system monitors the potential difference between a measuring electrode (typically glass or ion-selective) and a reference electrode as titrant is incrementally added to the sample solution. The instrument's high-resolution measurement system detects subtle potential changes that occur near the equivalence point, where the analyte concentration undergoes rapid change.
The automated burette system delivers precise titrant volumes while continuously monitoring the electrode potential. The 1/30000 resolution enables detection of minute potential shifts, allowing accurate identification of endpoints through first and second derivative analysis. Temperature compensation algorithms account for thermal effects on electrode response and sample chemistry, ensuring consistent results across varying laboratory conditions.
Data acquisition occurs continuously throughout the titration process, generating potential vs. volume curves that reveal equivalence points through inflection analysis. The system's low drift characteristics (±0.3mV over 3 hours) maintain baseline stability essential for detecting weak endpoints and performing sequential titrations.

Practical Tips
Perform electrode calibration using fresh certified buffer standards at the beginning of each analytical session.
Why: Regular calibration ensures electrode response accuracy and compensates for gradual electrode aging effects.
Clean electrodes thoroughly between different sample types and store in appropriate solutions when not in use.
Why: Proper electrode maintenance prevents contamination carryover and extends electrode operational lifetime.
Allow the system to equilibrate for 30 minutes after power-on before performing critical analytical measurements.
Why: Thermal equilibration ensures measurement stability and reduces drift-related uncertainty in analytical results.
Monitor electrode response time during calibration to identify potential electrode degradation or contamination issues.
Why: Slow or unstable electrode response indicates maintenance requirements before analytical problems affect sample results.
Document ambient temperature and sample preparation conditions for each analytical sequence.
Why: Environmental documentation supports measurement traceability and aids in troubleshooting analytical anomalies.
Ensure adequate ventilation when analyzing samples containing volatile components or corrosive reagents.
Why: Proper ventilation protects both personnel and instrument components from chemical exposure during extended analytical sessions.
