CA-310

The CA-310 determines the coulometric Karl Fischer humidity, the volumetric Karl Fischer humidity and the bromine index.

For all companies that want to determine the moisture content of their products or manufacturing materials. These include the pharmaceutical industry, petrochemicals, energy, chemicals, food, food supplements and the agricultural sector.

The CA-310 is used to measure the residual moisture in organic and inorganic solids, liquids, gases, liquid gases and viscous samples.

These are some example samples:

Organic compounds:

• Hydrocarbons
• Halogenated hydrocarbons
• Alcohols
• Ether
• Phenols
• Ketones
• Aldehydes
• organic acids
• Ester
• organic acid salts
• organic hydrates
• Amines
• Amide
• Anilide
• Nitrile
• Cyanohydrine
• Hydrazine
• Acid anhydrides
• Acid chlorides
• Quinone
• Peroxides
• Sulphur compounds

Inorganic compounds:

• Metals and simple substances
• inorganic acids
• Hydroxides
• Oxides
• Halides
• Carbonates
• Bicarbonates
• Sulfates
• Sulfites
• inorganic gases

Industrial products:

• Fertilizer
• Agricultural chemicals
• Glass/ceramic
• Liquid gases
• Coals
• Tars

The CA-310 is equipped with its own control unit, so no additional PC or software is required. It is simply operated via a touchscreen. The wireless connection between the controller and the Karl Fischer titration cell allows the device to be used in a glove or safety box or enclosure.

With the CA-310 you can carry out both coulometric and volumetric Karl Fischer moisture determination. Further information on the procedure can be found on the Karl Fischer titration knowledge page

Yes, the CA-310 supports GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice)/GLP (Good Laboratory Practice) and FDA 21 CFR data integrity requirements and provides the ability to export and graph data over a network to a LIMS (Laboratory Information and Management System).

GMP stands for Good Manufacturing Practice, GLP stands for Good Laboratory Practice. Both are quality assurance regulations for the manufacture of medicinal products.

The Ca-310 is used to measure the residual moisture in organic and inorganic solids, liquids, gases, liquid gases and viscous samples.

There are 2 different Karl Fischer methods. Find out more about the two methods on our Karl Fischer knowledge page.

The measuring range of the coulometric measuring cell is 10 µg to 100 mg.

The measuring range of the volumetric measuring cell is 0.1 – 999 mg _H2O.

The sensitivity of the coulometric measuring cell is 0.1 µg _H2O.

The burette accuracy of the volumetric measuring cell is +/- 0.01 ml.

Yes, the CA-310 is suitable for measuring the bromine number and bromine index.

No, the CA-310 has its own control unit with touchscreen.

Yes, we offer a wide range of Aquamicron reagents .

Once your CA-310 has been installed, our service team will be available to provide you with detailed product training. Most questions will arise as you work, so we will also be able to help you with any questions that arise at a later date – at your premises or flexibly via an online meeting.

The modularity of the CA-310 conforms to almost all relevant standard procedures of the Karl Fischer determination.
