Metrohm OMNIS Sample Robot for Karl Fischer titration

Automating volumetric titration in a whole series of samples can be a challenge. First there is the risk of ambient moisture compromising sample integrity, and there is also the necessity to start the titration in due time for each sample. Both challenges required the attention and constant presence of the lab technician during the analysis.

With the OMNIS Sample Robot, users can analyse water content in up to 50 samples completely unattended. The robot features Dis-Cover, a technology that covers the sample vials automatically with an air- and dustproof lid — protecting them from ambient moisture even for extended time periods. Users thus benefit from reproducible results.

The OMNIS Karl Fischer system no longer requires the presence of the user during the analysis, as the solvent addition and titration is started automatically by the system. Users may therefore dedicate their time to other tasks in the laboratory while their samples are analysed for water content completely unattended.
