Automatic Titrator with exchangeable heads for potentiometry

Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) determination is still one of the most important parameters in water resource management. It can be used to evaluate the impact of biodegradable substances in waters and waster water. With its OxiTop ® systems, WTW offers a unique, modular and mercury-free instrument system. It is not only suitable for BOD determination, but also for measuring biodegradability and deple-tion.The advantages of Ox…

Complete packages for 6 or 12 simultaneous measurementsMeasurement using OxiTop ® is based on pressure measurement in a closed system: microorganisms in the sample consume the oxy-gen and form CO 2 . This is absorbed by NaOH, creating a vacuum which can be read directly as a measured value in mg/l BOD.The used sample volume regulates the amount of oxygen available for a complete BOD. Measurement ranges of up to 4,000 mg/l can…

Instead of the display and keys, the OxiTop ® -C measuring head has an infrared interface with which it communicates with Controller OC 100 or OC 110. By "e;pointing"e; the controller at an OxiTop ® -C measuring head it can be identified and started, data can be called up or deleted and sampling progress can be displayed.Each measuring head has its own identification number; this means that manual identification of samples is…

Stirrers IS 6 and IS 12 have been specially developed for BOD measurement with the OxiTop ® system. Software-controlled speed regulation prevents the magnetic stirrer bar from getting caught or wobbling. The speed is selected so that an optimal gas exchange with the sample takes place. The stirrer is maintenance-free and non-wearing as it contains no moving parts. The IS 6-Var model has been specially developed for use wit…

Determination of anaerobic degradation processes: biogas determinationAnaerobic degradation processes take place in the absence of oxygen. In order to be able to fill the gas space above the sample with inert gas the measuring bottle has a septum sealed nozzle. When anaerobic degradation has taken place the dissolved CO 2 can be driven off and then removed from the gas space by means of a CO 2 absorber. The resulting pressure…

Microbiological growth and stress investigations: determination of the respiration rate (aerobic/anaerobic measuring operation)The use of special measuring bottles with a septum sealed nozzle allows the inter-ference-free addition of substrates and solutions. Pressure alterations could indicate a reduction in oxygen concentration, for example, which could make the addition of oxygen or air necessary (possibly other gases as we…

The determination of the biodegradability should be checked before “new” chemicals are used for the first time, not only for environmental reasons but also to minimize disposal charges.The sample and a blank are stirred at a constant temperature for 28 days in closed bottles. The CO2 produced is removed from the gas space by means of an absorber so that the resulting negative pressure is a measure of the biodegradability.The c…
