PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION

The HI 84432 is an easy to use microprocessor-based automatic minititrator and pH meter designed

for the rapid and accurate analysis of Total Titratable Acidity in fruit juices. By eliminating subjective

factors including color indicators, errors in mathematical calculations or erratic titrant additions from

the measurement, the HI 84432 makes Total Titratable acidity analysis precisely. This will quickly

become a valuable acidity analysis tool of fruit juices.

The instrument benefits from Hanna’s many years of experience as manufacturer of quality analytical

instruments. A clear and well-designed user interface makes the instrument intuitive and simple to

use. A dedicated HELP key aids in set-up, calibration, status and troubleshooting.

By simply pressing the START key, the HI 84432 automatically starts pump operation and titrates

the sample to the end point. The HI 84432 has a simple and accurate peristaltic pump to ensure the

best accuracy and repeatability. By performing pump calibration with the Hanna standard provided,

the instrument accuracy is assured.

The instrument employs a powerful and effective built-in algorithm to analyze the pH response to

determine the exact pH endpoint, then uses this to make the necessary calculations.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Titratable Acidity determination is instantaneously displayed in selected measurement units

on the large dot matrix display. The instrument is ready for the next analysis immediately.

Other features:

• Log on demand up to 100 samples (50 for pH measurement; 50 for titration results)

• GLP feature, to view last calibration data for pH electrode and pump

• PC interface via USB connection

MEASUREMENT SIGNIFICANCE

Titratable acidity of fruit juices measures the concentration of titratable hydrogen ions contained in

the fruit juices samples, by neutralization with strong base solution at fixed pH. This value includes

all the substances of an acidic nature in the fruit juice: free hydrogen ions, organic acids, acid salts

and cathions. Because the organic acid is the most acidic component of the fruit juices that react

with strong bases solutions, the titratable acidity is usually expressed as g/L or g/100mL of the

predominant acid contained:

•Citric acid is present in many fruits species.

•Tartaric acid is essentially found in grapes.

•Malic acid is present in many fruit species, sometimes together with citric acid or tartaric

acid in unripe grapes.

Titratable acidity of fruit is an important parameter in determining fruit maturity.

The HI 84432 minititrator uses a method based on the Official Methods of Analysis of AOAC International.

The fruit juice is titrated with a sodium hydroxide solution until the end point at 8.2 pH is reached

(determined by potentiometric method).

Additionaly the HI 84432 has a built-in pH meter for pH measurement (electrode and meter must

be calibrated).

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

Fruit juice acidity is determined by neutralization of the all available hydrogen ions present in the

sample, with a strong base solution:

H++HO-H2O

In an ideal solution, the end point of an acid titration corresponds stoichiometrically to the complete

neutralization of the acids present.

Using a pH electrode allows an end point at 8.2 pH to be automatically detected. End point

detection by potentiometric method is more objective than the end point detection using the

indicators.

The HI 84432 minititrator is designed to determine the acidity of fruit juices by potentiometric

titration. The result of the titration are displayed in % (g/100mL) of the predominant acid (citric,

malic or tartaric acid).

For precise results is important to know the sample volume and the titrant volume and concentration.

It is important to titrate fresh samples of the fruit juice. For increased measurement precision keep

the fruit juices in caped vessels (avoid prolonged exposure to air). Also avoid refrigerating the juice

as significant portion of the tartaric acid (ex. grapes juice) will precipitate out and the results

obtained will be lower then expected results.

Titratable Acidity in fruit juices, as performed on the HI 84432 minititrator, utilizes a simple sample

preparation, a high quality peristaltic dosing pump for titrant, potentiometric endpoint detector and

instantaneaous computations. To maintain the high precision of the titrator, a simple pump calibration

procedure is required. The pump calibration involves the analysis of a known volume of a known

solution (standard provided) and compensates for changes in pump dosing that may occur due to

many factors including tube stretching or aging. This procedure should be performed regularly.

KEYPAD FUNCTION AND INDICATORS

PERISTALTIC PUMP

Peristaltic pumps are self priming. Liquid never contacts the pump components. The titrant tubing

is pressed along the rotating rollers of the pump. The rollers compress the tubing, driving the

titrant to the dispensing tip.

TITRATOR STARTUP

This is a general outline of the steps required to make a titration. The following sections expand

upon each section.

• Place the instrument on a flat table. Do not place the instrument in direct sun light.

• Connect the power adapter to the instrument.

• Turn the instrument ON using the power switch from the rear panel of the instrument.

• Set up the instrument. See the “Setup Configuration Menu” section for details. Pay attention

to the Acidity Unit.

• Connect the pH sensor and temperature probe to the instrument.

• Calibrate the pH electrode. At least a single point calibration is necessary for titration.

• Place the peristaltic pump tube on the pump (inlet tube is connected with the reagent bottle,

outlet tube is connected with the dosing tip). See the “Pump Tube Replacement” section for

the procedure.

• Remove the reagent bottle cap and replace with the bottle cap with tubes. Place the reagent

bottle in the appropriate place on the titrator top.

• Purge the titrant.

• Calibrate the pump.

• Prepare the sample.

• Run a titration and log sample results.
