2035 Process Analyzer – customized online monitoring of industrial processes and wastewater
Potentiometric titration and ion-selective
measurements
Titration is one of the most used methods for analysis in
almost any industry for hundreds of components varying
from acid/base analysis to metal concentrations in plat-
ing baths. Titration is an absolute chemical method –
straightforward with no need for calibration. Some titra-
tion options available for this configuration:
• Potentiometric titration
• Colorimetric titration with fiber optic technology
• Moisture determination based on the Karl Fischer
titration method
The potentiometric version of the analyzer offers the
most accurate results of all measuring techniques available
on the market.
More options for your analysis needs
The 2035 Process Analyzer for Potentiometric Titration
performs analyses with dedicated electrodes and titrants.
Additionally, this version of the 2035 Process Analyzer is
also suitable for ion-selective analysis using Metrohm
high performance electrodes.
• Standard addition technique is ideal for more
difficult sample matrices
07
Thermometric titration – exclusively offered by
Metrohm
Thermometric titration is a problem solver for difficult
samples which cannot be titrated potentiometrically, and
is also the preferred technique in situations when HF is
present in samples because of the robust thermometric
sensor. Metrohm is currently the only company offering
an analyzer dedicated to performing online thermo-
metric titration.
• 100% maintenance free sensor also requires no
calibration
• Suitable for aggressive solutions (e.g. HF mixtures)
• Faster result than with conventional titration
technique
• Great for high concentration solutions and organic
solutions (e.g. Bayer Liquor, sulfate in pulp and
paper, sodium, FFA, TAN and acid mixtures)
Rapid analysis for difficult samples
Thermometric titration is by far the most robust titration
method available on the market and is excellent for 24/7
online process applications, such as the monitoring of
etching baths. Rapid analysis is possible with this tech-
nique; acid mixtures, e.g., can be analyzed in just a few
minutes.
Dependable photometric analyses
Undesired sample matrix effects such as sample color or
turbidity can be removed with differential measure-
ments, taken before and after the addition of a color
rea gent. Two options are available for photometric ana -
lysis in the 2035 Process Analyzer.
Cuvette system
The cuvette system is compact in order to reduce reagent
consumption, yet it offers a long optical path length for
high sensitivity.
• Thermostated with stirrer capabilities
• Stable over a large concentration range
Fiber optic immersion probe
The configuration with a fiber optic immersion probe
broa dens the application range substantially.
• Measurement of high concentration samples is
simpler (internal sample dilution steps)
• Smaller light path than the cuvette system
08 The ADI 201Y series is based upon a robust and proven
Process Analyzer that can be used for all types of liquid

Colorimetric Measurements
The ICON Analyzer performs photometric absorption
mea surements in the visible light range. To perform more
accurate measurements, the analyzer compensates for
the color and turbidity of the sample by measuring both
before and after the addition of a color reagent. The re -
action cell is thermostated, removing ambient tempera-
ture effects from your analysis.

The Alert Ion Analyzer utilizes the unique Dynamic Stan-
dard Addition method, where each analysis is validated
and unaffected by electrode drift or other compounds in
the sample. The sample is measured before and after the
addition of an optimal volume of standard solution to
calculate the correct ion concentration.
10 Inline real-time process analysis
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a fast, chemical-free,
spectroscopic technique in use in many industries for in-
process control (IPC) of manufacturing operations and
measuring product quality. Measurements are direct and
nondestructive. Monitoring with NIRS fits in well with
pro cess analytical technology (PAT) initiatives as pro-
posed by the FDA. Metrohm Process Analytics of fers two
versions of process NIR systems: the NIRS Ana lyzer Pro
and the NIRS XDS Process Analyzer.
NIR Spectroscopic Technique
This analytical technique is based on absorption mea-
sured in the near-infrared region of the electromagnetic
spectrum that is between the visible and the mid-infra-
red. The fundamental absorption bands of functional
groups occur in the mid-infrared and are very strong. The
overtone absorptions of these fundamental bands occur
in the near-infrared (NIR) spectral region and allow direct
measurement without sample preparation due to
the relative weakness of absorption. The CH, OH, NH and
SH bonds have the strongest overtone absorbance in the
NIR re gion.
Powerful chemometrics software
All Metrohm Process Analytics NIR Analyzers are operat-
ed with Vision che mo metric software. This proprietary,
easy-to-use software can be used for comprehensive
data collection, qua litative and quantitative method
development, and diagnostics. The pharmaceutical ver-
sion is fully validatable and 21 CFR Part 11 compliant.
Integration to process regulations systems can be done
through the Metrohm OPC interface.
NIRS – Near Infrared Spectroscopy
NIRS Analyzer Pro
The NIRS Analyzer Pro is a process analysis system based
on high-resolution diode array technology. The complete
wavelength range is measured instantaneously enabling
measurements also on fast moving samples with high
accuracy. The backup lamp in the dual lamp system se -
cures uptime, and analytical accuracy is unchanged even
after switching to a new lamp.
Three configurations are available
• Direct contact
• Fiber based
• Non-contact
The NIRS Analyzer Pro helps to
• Optimize the use of raw materials
• Consistently run production closer to target
specifications
• Dedicated Systems Different fiber optic probes are avaliable

11NIRS XDS Process Analyzer
The NIRS XDS Process Analyzer provides the next genera-
tion of Process Analyzers for real-time analysis in the
pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Nondestructive,
accurate measurements are performed directly in the
pro cess line, granulator, dryer, reactor, or reaction vessel.
Single Point or Multiplexer
The NIRS XDS Process Analyzer is available as a single
point or a multiplexer configuration. Two multiplexer Pro-
cess Analyzer configurations provide for up to either four
or nine sampling points. Benefits include:
• Analyzer can be installed in an unrestricted area
• Remote measurements
• Reduced installation and operation costs
Single fiber
The SingleFiber version allows for cost-effective analysis
of a wide variety of sample types from clear liquids to
trans parent films.
• Allows long distances (100 m or more) between
analyzer and sampling point
• Beneficial for difficult or hazardous sampling areas
MicroBundle
To maintain analytical performance, fiber count is in -
creas ed as the turbidity of process sample increases. The
80-fiber count (40 illumination/40 collection fibers)
found in the MicroBundle version allows for cost-effec-
tive analysis of sample types ranging from clear liquids to
suspensions and solids.
• Microbundle cable has superior mechanical and
chemical resistance
• Fibers are temperature-insensitive
Optimized interface options
Configure the analyzer with a reflectance probe, an im -
mer sion probe or a transmission probe pair for an opti-
mized interface to your particular sample type. Other
sampling options and preconditioning setups can be
custom built by Metrohm. See page 14 for more infor-
mation.
Continuous monitoring of total organic carbon (TOC) or total carbon (TOC + TIC)
Organic compounds are found in almost all types of
water – from natural and treated drinking water to pro-
cess water, cooling water, and water used in pharmaceu-
ticals and food production. Too much organic contami-
nation in the water interferes with many industrial pro-
cesses. On the other hand, there are numerous processes
in the chemical and galvanic industries in which water is
mixed with organic additives. In order to control and
mo ni tor these processes, it is important to measure the
amount of organic substances in the water.
Due to the huge numbers of organic compounds in
wa ter, it is nearly impossible to individually identify and
mea sure each one. Instead of analyzing individual sub-
stances, a fast and precise way to rate water quality is to
measure sum parameters – this is especially helpful in the
case of online monitoring.
Some advantages of TOC
• High levels of accuracy and precision
• Small sample amounts
• Ease of process automation
• Fast measurements
12 Two configurations
The 7010 TOC Analyzer offered by Metrohm Process
Analytics measures total organic carbon in liquid with
detection by nondispersive infrared absorption (NDIR).
The analyzer can measure TOC in liquid samples ranging
from 0–5 mg/L up to 20,000 mg/L. The 7010 TOC
Analyzer is also available as a total carbon (TC) analyzer.
Along with a high volume external pump, this offers
faster response times when the total inorganic carbon
(TIC) in the sample is considered insignificant.
Robust and Reliable
The analyzer consists of two separate housing compart-
ments in order to separate the electronics from the wet
part. Samples are taken and reagents are added via the
peristaltic pumps eliminating valves which risk being blo-
cked. The autoclean, autocalibration, and autovali-
dation functions guarantee correct, reliable values that
can be reproduced at any time without the need for
manual in ter vention.
Integrated gas management
• Internal air compressor produces the carrier gas for
oxidation and detection
• Air purification occurs via an internal soda lime filter
• No need for external air treatment or a compressed
air supply, as in traditional analyzers
The MARGA (Monitor for AeRosols and Gases in ambi-
ent Air) is an on-line ion chromatograph that measures
the concentration of water soluble inorganic species in
aerosols and their related gas phase components in am -
bient air.
• Hourly simultaneous results for gases and aerosols
• High sensitivity for key parameters
• Unattended online operation
• Continuous calibration with internal standard
• Automated validation of results
• Detailed system diagnostics available

Preconditioning and integrated systems
The success of a Metrohm Process Analytics analyzer
does not only depend upon the chemical analysis, but
also upon the sample preparation or preconditioning
steps. Online sample preconditioning systems from
Metrohm Process Analytics can lower maintenance costs
and help your analyses run smoothly.
Furthermore, the location of the analyzer contributes sig-
ni ficantly to the quality of the analysis. The sample needs
to be as representative as possible, which means that the
analyzer needs to be as close to the sampling point as
possible.
Metrohm Process Analytics can provide a complete and
exact so lution for almost any application due to more
than 40 years of experience in process analytics. Projects
range from one analyzer in combination with simple
sample preparation to complete turnkey packages with
shelters, piping, wiring and interfacing.
On-site, only the necessary utilities and the sample
stream need to be connected, saving a lot of time and
energy in the start-up phase of the instrument.
