AOX-400 Automatic Organic Halogen Analyzer
Nittoseiko's AOX-400 Automatic Organic Halogen Analyzer measures organic halogen in river water, industrial wastewater, and soil via shaking method, column method, and EOX.
Advanced autosamplers provide flexible combination of different modes easily.
Main Features
- 3-injection mode convertible (shaking method/ column method/ EOX)
- Advanced autosampler concept is space saving and reliable
- Faster measurement time
- Automatic gas flow
- No gases required except air (same as AOX-200)
- Longer lifetime of electrolyte by cell cooling system
- Increase the default number of samples
- Easy maintenance of pyrolysis tube by sliding turntable
Measurement Principal
AOX adsorbed to activated carbon is pyrolyzed in a quartz combustion tube. Combustion gases containing hydrogen halides are forced through a dehydrating tube and subsequently adsorbed within the electrolyte of a coulometric titration cell.
Within the titration cell the halogen ions are quantified by an argentometric coulometry. The amount of chlorine is calculated from the quantity of electricity required for the formation of silver ions.
HCI + Ag+ ➔ H+ + AgCI (Titration)
Ag ➔ Ag+ + e- (Electrolysis)
The gas is moved by application of suction pump.
This principle is used to destroy acetic acid vapour by returning the gases through a separate combustion tube within the furnace after passage of titration celI.
