AVL 9180 For Performing Electrolytic Analysis

The 9180 Electrolyte Analyzer methodology is based on the ion selective electrode (ISE) measurement to determine the measurement values. There are five different electrodes used in the 9180 Electrolyte Analyzer: sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium, and a reference electrode. Each electrode has an ionselective membrane that undergoes a specific reaction with the corresponding ions contained in the sample being analyzed. The membrane is an ion exchanger, which reacts to the electrical charge of the ion. This causes a change in the membrane potential, or measuring voltage, which is built up in the film between the sample and the membrane.
