Introduction

1.Introduction

The DL15 Titrator is the ideal solution for all requirements in the food industry, water/ wastewater analysis, and the chemical industry when all that is needed is an endpoint titration or a pH measurement. The DL15 is mainly used to determine the acid and base content of a sample.

It features easy-to-understand intuitive user guidance so that, for example, pressing the Run button twice starts the method you last ran.

The user can assign three other methods to individual function keys, making methods easy to find and start.

The keys used for the most frequently used manual functions are identified by pictograms. Titrants and sensors can be selected from the instrument’s database.

Alphanumeric input is easily entered by means of a special keypad, just like with a mobile phone. There is no need to connect an external keyboard.

The DL15 calculates the analytical results in predefined units and sends an analysis report to commercially available printers.

4.3The operating concept

The operating console of the titrator consists of the display in the middle with several groups of keys arranged around it. The various functional areas are described in the following sections.

The titrator

4.3.1The display

The display consists of four different elements. The title line across the top shows the name of the menu (B) and submenu (A) that you are currently using, or the name of the screen.

On the right-hand side of the screen there is a scroll bar (D). This has a small black bar that represents the portion of the menu shown on the display. You can move the visible part of the menu upward or downward through the display area using the arrow keys. The black-inverted line (C) always displays the current selection.

The three black-inverted boxes (E) across the bottom line of the display show the functions to which the function keys directly below (F1, F2 and F3) are assigned for the menu item selected.

4.3.2The arrow keys

The arrow keys are located on the right of the display.

You can use these to move the black scroll bar up or down within a menu to select a menu item. If you simultaneously press an arrow key and the Shift key (arrow pointing upward), the scroll bar is shifted upward (or downward) three lines.

4.3.3The function keys

The function keys are located directly below the display. Their assignment depends on the

particular menu item selected and is shown by the three black-inverted boxes across the

bottom line of the display, for example, Print for the command to print, or OK to confirm

a selection or a change.

4.3.4The input keys

The input keys are located on the right-hand side of the operating console. They allow alphabetical, numerical and special characters to be entered.

Entering character strings into text boxes

To enter a number or one of the letters written above a number, press the corresponding number key repeatedly until the desired character appears in the display. After a short pause, the cursor jumps one step further for you to enter the next character.

The titrator

Pressing the number key 2 once, for example, writes the letter «a»; pressing it three time, the letter «c», and so on.

To obtain large characters, you must press and hold down the Shift key (arrow pointing upward) while selecting the character.

You can delete the last character by pressing the Del key. If you simultaneously press the Delete key and the Shift key, the entire content of the text box is deleted.

The Method key opens the Method menu of the titrator. The methods stored in the titrator

are managed in this menu. You can store your own methods, delete and modify them. A

number of methods developed by METTLER TOLEDO are already stored and can be directly

used to perform analyses or be used as templates for new methods.

The resources you want to use for a method must be defined and stored beforehand in

the Setup menu.

The Run key opens the Start menu to perform an analysis. Methods used for different

determinations can be selected and started.

The Series key opens the start menu to perform a sample series analysis. Methods used for different determinations can be selected and started

An automation of the series determination can be achived by using a Rondolino sample changer.

The titrator

4.3.6The Help function keys

The Help function keys let you access functions that are not directly involved in performing a sample analysis, but nevertheless in some way support it (hence the name Help functions).

Examples of such functions are the rinsing of burettes, the calibration or testing of a sensor or the display and management of analytical results.

This menu lets you measure the pH, potential or temperature of a solution and test and calibrate pH and ISE sensors.

The burette and the burette tip can be rinsed, and any volume you like dispensed. You can perform a manual titration.

The variable speed stirrer can be switched on and off.

You can view the titrator information and open a menu to test the titrator hardware and the connected devices.

You can view, print and manage the results of your analyses including statistical evaluations.

In the Report menu you can define and print additional reports.

4.3.7The Escape key

By pressing the Escape key, you can quit a menu or a selection at any time and discard the changes you made. You always return to the previous menu and the original values and names remain the same.

4.3.8The Reset key

Pressing the Reset key terminates analyses, rinsing or dispensing processes, and other actions. The titrator is then reset and you return to the Home screen. Data that was not saved beforehand is lost.

The titrator

4.3.9The Home screen

The Home screen appears on the display as soon as you switch on the titrator. It is the starting point for operating the titrator.

Each time you reset the titrator by pressing Reset, you return to the Home screen. The screen displays the following important information:

the current date and time.

the current user. (See «5.8.3 Defining an active user»)

the access rights for the active user: Expert or Routine. (See «5.8.4 Defining access rights for active users»)

the assignment of the F1, F2 and F3 function keys with the main methods. (See «5.7 Main methods»)

Setup

5. Setup

In this chapter you learn how to set up the titrator for your specific requirements.

To perform a titration, you must first define and configure the resources (titrants, sensor, peripherals, etc.) used for the method in the titrator.

5.1Opening the Setup menu

Press the Setup button to open the Setup menu.

A list of the resources appears.

You can scroll the list upward or downward using the arrow keys on the right next to the display. The black-inverted line always shows the current selection.

If you press Print, the list with the available entries for the selected resource is printed. See «5.4.1 Setting up a printer»

If you press OK, the list of the selected resources appears on the display.

5.2Titrants

Press Setup to open the Setup menu.

Select «Titrant» using the arrow keys and press OK to confirm. The list of the titrants stored in the titrator appears.

The titrants used by the METTLER methods are already preset in the titrator. You can delete titrants, and modify or print the parameters of the selected titrants. Furthermore, you can determine and store the titer for each titrant using an automatic function.

You can add a new titrant by modifying the parameters of an existing titrant and then storing it under a new name.

A maximum of 30 titrants can be stored in the titrator.

Setup

5.2.1Adding a titrant

Proceed as follows to define a new titrant:

Press Setup to open the Setup menu.

Select «Titrant» using the arrow keys and press OK to confirm. The list of the titrants stored in the titrator appears.

Select an existing titrant from the list of titrants and press Modify.

Change the name to the name of the new titrant you want to define.

Change the parameters of the titrant corresponding to the new titrant you want to define. See «5.2.2 Modifying a titrant».

Press Save to confirm the changes you have made.

The new titrant appears in the list.

• You can discard the changes you have made by pressing Esc to quit the selection. In this case, the titrant is not stored.

Determine the titer of the new titrant using the automatic titer determination (Titer key) if you have not already entered it manually. See «5.2.5 Titer determination from the Titrant setup».

In any case, first change the name of the titrant. Otherwise the changes you made for

the existing titrant will be effective on pressing the Save key, and no new titrant will be stored in the titrator!

5.2.2Modifying a titrant

Press Setup to open the Setup menu.

Select «Titrant» using the arrow keys and press OK to confirm. The list of the titrants stored in the titrator appears.

Select the titrant whose parameters you want to change.

Press Modify.

The list of parameters of the selected titrant appears and the individual parameters can be selected and changed.

Press Save to accept your changes and quit the menu, or press Esc to discard your changes and quit the menu.

All titrants contain the following parameters:

Setup

Name

The name of the titrant.

Conc. [mol/L]

The concentration of the titrant in [mol/L].

Titer

The titer can be automatically determined using a titer determi-

nation, or manually entered. If the titer is determined through a

titer determination, the current date and time are stored.

Minimum

The «Minimum» parameter lets you define the lower limit for the

range within which the titer must be.

Maximum

The «Maximum» parameter lets you define the upper limit for the

range within which the titer must be.

Titer

This parameter indicates whether the titer determination was

automatically determined («Determined») or manually entered

(«Edited»).

Standard

Here you can select one of the standards defined in the titrator

to determine the titer of your titrant.

Burette

Using this parameter you can define the burette volume. Pos-

sible values are 1, 5, 10 and 20 mL.

Charge

With this parameter you can record information about the batch

from which the titrant originates.

Fill rate [%]

The «Fill rate» indicates how quickly the burette is filled with

titrant. Filling the burette at the highest rate corresponds to a fill

rate of 100%, and at the lowest rate to a fill rate of 30%. The

preset value is 100%

Check after [day]

This value is used to calculate the expiration date for the titrant.

A period of 0 to 100 days can be defined. If the parameter has

the value 0, no expiration date is determined.

Expiry

If the value 0 is entered for the «Check after» parameter, no

expiration date is calculated.

Date

The date of the last titer determination. Each time you store the

titrant, the date is set to 00-00-0000.

Time

The time of the last titer determination. Each time you store the

titrant, the time is set to 00:00.

Setup

If you change the name of a titrant and save your changes, a new titrant is created under the new name.

If the value for the titer determined by a titer determination or the manually entered value is outside the range defined by «Minimum» and «Maximum», an error message appears and the titer must either be determined or entered again.

When you use a titrant of higher viscosity, it is advisable to reduce the fill rate in order to prevent air being sucked-in when filling the burette.

If, at the start of an analysis, the titant has expired (the expiration date has been exceeded), a message appears to draw your attention to this. If you still want to perform the determination, you must confirm the message. In the report, a corresponding line appears that notes that the titrant has expired.

5.2.3Deleting a titrant

Press Setup to open the Setup menu.

Select «Titrant» using the arrow keys and press OK to confirm. The list of the titrants stored in the titrator appears.

Select the titrant you want to delete.

Press Delete.

In the dialog that follows, you are asked whether you really want to delete the selected titrant. Confirm deletion by selecting «Yes» and pressing OK, or terminate deletion by selecting «No» and pressing OK to confirm.

You can only delete titrants that have not been used in a method.

Titrants referenced by METTLER methods cannot be deleted.

Setup

5.2.4Printing a titrant

Press Setup to open the Setup menu.

Select «Titrant» using the arrow keys and press OK to confirm. The list of the titrants stored in the titrator appears.

Select the titrant whose parameters you want to print.

Press Print.

The parameters of the selected titrant are printed on the printer as soon as you confirm by pressing OK.

5.2.5Titer determination from the titrant setup

The accuracy of the results of your analysis depends on the accuracy with which you determine the concentration of your titrant.

When you prepare a titrant, a number of errors can occur that cause the actual concentra-

tion (Cactual) to deviate from the desired concentration (Cnom) of your titrant.

The quotient of the actual concentration of the titrant and its desired concentration is called the titer of the titrant:

t = cactual cnom

In the ideal case, Cactual = Cnom and the titer, t, is 1.

If the concentration of the titrant is too high, t is > 1.

If the concentration of the titrant is too low, t is <1.

The titer enables the titrator to calculate the results of your analyses corresponding to the actual concentration of the titrant used. It is therefore essential for you to accurately determine the actual concentration of the titrant against a reference substance before you first use it.

The titrator can store the corresponding titer as a parameter for every titrant defined in the titrator. As long as the titer for a titrant has not been determined, the default value 1 is used.

You can determine the titer yourself, enter the value for the titrant manually in the Setup menu, or to determine it through automatic titer determination with the titrator.

Before doing this, you should make sure that a suitable standard is already stored in the titrator for the primary standard you want to use. If this is not the case, you must first define a new standard in the instrument. See «5.5.1 Adding a standard».

Check whether the parameters of the selected standards match your primary standard substance. If this is not the case, press Modify and select the suitable standard from the list of standards stored in the titrator. Press OK to confirm your selection.

Press Titer to open the titer determination function.

A list of the methods appears. It shows only methods that use the titrant whose titer you want to determine.

Select a suitable method using the arrow keys and start the titer determination by pressing Start.

The titer determination is performed according to the conditions predefined for the method used. (See «6.3 Modifying a method»). The calculations from the method are ignored. The sample data from the method is replaced with default data.

After the determination, you can view the statistics of the current sample series by pressing Stat..

If the titer determined in this way is within the defined limits, press Save to accept the result of the titer determination (or the mean results if you have performed the titer determination several times).

The date and time of the last titer determination are automatically updated.

Quit the display that follows by pressing Esc. in order to prevent the date and time being set to 00-00-0000 and 00:00.

• It is also possible to perform the automatic titer determination from the Analysis menu. See «8.2 Starting a titer determination using the Run key»

The concentration of a titrant can change after you have determined the titer. It is therefore absolutely essential to determine the titer at regular intervals in order to guarantee constant accuracy of the analysis results. The titrator can also generate a specific expiration date for each titrant, which requests the user to determine the titer again after a certain period.

5.3.5Sensor calibration from the sensor setup menu

Zero point and slope

The calibration parameters of a pH electrode are the zero point pH0 (pH at a potential of 0 mV) and the slope.

The theoretical values of a pH electrode are stored in the titrator:

Zero point = 7.0 [pH] and

Slope = -59.16 [mV/pH].

The pH calculation is performed according to the following equation:

pH=pH0+ mV signal slope

The slope is corrected for temperature in the calculation of the pH.

The sensor should be calibrated in order to obtain correct values for your electrode. The theoretical values are then automatically overwritten with the calculated calibration data during the calibration.

If you only calibrate your electrode with one buffer solution, only the electrode zero point is recalculated. (Not possible with the titrator.)

Power ManagementThe devices have a power management system which prevents the titrator from switching off unexpectedlyin the event of a power overload. Tasks which would cause a power overload, because a number of pumps,stirrers and burette drives are already in use, cannot be started at all. A notification brings the start attempt tothe attention of the user. It is advisable, if possible, to connect pumps and stirrers directly to samplechangers or other devices which have their own power supply, such as a TBox, instead of to the titratoritself.
