An example:
If the current drift shows a value of 1.5 µg/min and the stop drift is set to 2.0 µg/min, then the end drift actually to
be reached is 3,5 µg/min.
This means: The lower the entered stop drift, the longer takes the measurement. If a high stop drift (e.g. 20
µg/min) is entered, the measurement ends significantly faster. Low value = exact measurement, high value =
inexact measurement. As stop drift 2 µg/min are pre-set as standard value. The value can be entered from 0.01
to 25 µg/min.

Water [µg]
Diagram 1 shows on the left the titration curve with the measured variable water per time and the derived
variable drift per time.
4.6.3.8 Stop Drift Tolerance
As stop drift tolerance 0.02 µg/min is pre-set as standard value.
The value can be entered from 0.01 to 25.00 µg/min (Fig. 80).

In case the drift stop has not been reached as criterion, as new stop criterion is the stop drift tolerance will be
used. It is the derivative of the drift with respect to time. Diagram 2 shows the typical progression of the stop drift
tolerance. Thus, the automatic stop of titrations with side reactions is possible
