When it comes to methods for water content determination, Karl Fischer titration is the gold standard: It is a direct method and specific for water, it is highly sensitive, and it is fast and simple to use. Hence, numerous standards such as EN, ISO, ASTM, DIN and others describe volumetric Karl Fischer titration for matrices from foodstuffs to petrochemicals to paints and others.
The Eco KF Titrator makes water content determination affordable – and simple: Example methods are pre-installed on the instrument; users simply select their method of choice and start it at the touch of the instrument’s screen. The titration itself is performed fully automatically, which means there is no risk of human error. Any risk of physical contact with the Karl Fischer reagents is prevented: The titration vessel is emptied and refilled at the push of a button by the Solvent Pump after each analysis.
