POLYMETRON 8810 TITRATOR
PRODUCT SELECTION GUIDE
January 23, 2013

Why a selection guide for the 8810?
The purpose of this selection guide is to help define, identify and configure a POLYMETRON 8810
Titrator instrument during the quoting process. Due to its complexity and number of options, the 8810
Titrator is difficult to configure and it is quite often a challenge to make sure it is suitable for specific
applications or to make sure we have prepared all part numbers. With this guide, we have tried to bring
you the knowledge of our technical product specialists.
This guide is structured in a way that will enable users, step by step, to identify different factors related to
their applications (e.g. parameter, measuring range, hardware, options, service, etc). Not only are the
technical aspects described, but particular attention has been paid to the 20+ years this product has
been used in successful applications and the importance of having knowledgeable people installing the
8810 Titrator.
How to use this guide
This selection guide is divided in two sections. The first, (A), lists the general recommendations and
options that must be considered for any 8810 model. The second, (B), is specific to each parameter.
You need to walk through the two sections in order to validate that the 8810 is suitable for your
customer’s application.
DO NOT QUOTE
Section B contains, a section for each parameter called “NOT SUITABLE FOR!” This
section is a list of the applications or conditions under which the 8810 Titrator is not
recommended at all. In case your customer’s application is affected by these limitations,
DO NOT QUOTE this instrument. If you still have doubts, please contact your local
technical support team.
ORDER PROCESSING
All components ordered along with an 8810 unit will be factory mounted on the 8810 and
tested. If you want to order separate spare parts along with your 8810 and you do not
want them to be mounted on the unit, we highly recommend you to place separate orders
or at least clearly state your request on your order; otherwise, when possible, spare parts
will be mounted and shipped on the 8810.

A) General recommendations & options (all models)
Pumps
In some configurations, two different types of pumps may be available: piston and peristaltic.
If a different method has not been suggested, the choice of pump, can be done based on the
following criteria:
o Peristaltic pump (or volumetric pump) needs to be selected when cost is a concern
for the customer. This pump is less expensive, but will require more maintenance.
o Piston pump (or pulse pump) needs to be selected when maintenance frequency is a
concern for the customer. This pump is more expensive, but requires less
maintenance
Sample temperature
Always respect the 8810 Titrator’s temperature range: 5°C – 55°C
Sample pressure
Always respect the pressure at the 8810 Titrator’s inlet: 0.5 – 6 bar
Sample flow
Always respect the flow at the 8810 Titrator’s inlet: 50 – 300 l/h
Air source and rinsing water
An air supply is required to run the 8810 Titrator : 5 – 7 bar
A rinsing water supply is required to run the 8810 Titrator : 1 – 6 bar
Particles
Maximum particles allowed in sample: 3% or 30 g/l, with a diameter maximum of 2 mm
Enclosure and Tropicalization
Use the flow chart on the next page, and use the suggested part numbers according to the
application:

Training & Support
Only trained people are allowed to support and install the 8810 Titrator. Before quoting, make
sure that a dedicated team will be able to support the product in the country of installation. If a
training is required, please contact your local Sales Support team.
