The HI 902C is an automatic titrator that complements our wide range
of products dedicated to quick and accurate laboratory analysis.
This versatile titrator supports up to 100 methods. When powered on,
the instrument initiates an internal diagnostics check and then readies
itself for the first titration of the day. A large color LCD screen shows
the chosen method and related information. A real-time titration curve
can be shown on the display; this feature is useful when new methods
are tested or when a procedure needs to be optimized. At the end of
the titration, all data, including the graph, are automatically stored in
memory and can be copied via the built-in USB drive or through direct
connection with a PC.
