    The document describes the 838 Advanced VA Sample Processor, which allows for fully automated processing of large sample series for determining organic additives in electroplating baths using voltammetry techniques. It can hold up to 112 sample vessels and works together with the 797 VA Computrace to automate additive analysis through dilution titration or linear approximation techniques. Sample transfer, calibration, rinsing, and emptying of vessels is controlled automatically.

    Voltammetry

    Fully automatic determination


    of organic additives in
    electroplating baths with CVS
    838 Advanced VA Sample Processor Voltammetry
    The new 838 Advanced VA Sample Processor allows
    the fully automatic and extremely flexible processing of
    large sample series in the routine monitoring of electro-
    plating baths.
    This means that the 838 Advanced VA Sample Pro-
    cessor is the ideal partner for the 797 VA Computrace
    for the fully automated determination of organic addi-
    tives in electroplating baths by means of the CVS tech-
    nique (Cyclic Voltammetric Stripping). Both Dilution Ti-
    tration (DT) for the determination of suppressors (level-
    ers, carriers) and LAT (Linear Approximation Technique)
    or MLAT (Modified Linear Approximation Technique) for
    the determination of brighteners can be automated.
    The large sample rack of the 838 Advanced VA Sample
    Processor with 112 positions for different vessel sizes
    guarantees the rapid and efficient determination of addi-
    tives even with large sample numbers.
    The CVS technique is used, for example, for monitoring
    the following types of electroplating baths:
    Acidic copper baths
    Tin baths
    Tin-lead baths
    Alkaline zinc baths
    Existing, manually operated 797 VA Computrace sys-
    tems can, of course, be easily extended with the 838
    Advanced VA Sample Processor.
    Suppressors and similar compounds are determined
    by Dilution Titration in combination with the CVS tech-
    nique. Using an 800 Dosino, the calibration standard so-
    lutions or bath samples are taken from the sample ves-
    sels on the rack of the Advanced VA Sample Processor
    and added in small steps to the Virgin Makeup Solution
    (VMS) in the measuring vessel. The VMS is added by a
    second 800 Dosino.
    Placing both samples and calibration standards on the
    sample processor makes it possible to automatically
    calibrate methods before and even during a sample se-
    ries. A maximum of 56 samples or calibration standard
    solutions can be analyzed in a single run.
    Between the determinations the measuring vessel is au-
    tomatically emptied and thoroughly rinsed with water
    using two 823 Membrane Pump Units. Carryover is thus
    reliably prevented.
    Suppressor determination The 838 Advanced VA Sample
    Processor in a nutshell
    Completely automated analysis system for the determination of sup-
    pressors, consisting of 797 VA Computrace, 838 Advanced VA Sample
    Processor, two 800 Dosinos and rinsing equipment.
    838 Advanced VA Sample Processor Voltammetry
    Brighteners in electroplating baths are determined by
    the two related calibration techniques LAT (Linear Ap-
    proximation Technique) or MLAT (Modified Linear Ap-
    proximation Technique) in combination with the mea-
    suring techniques CVS (Cyclic Voltammetric Stripping)
    or CPVS (Cyclic Pulse Voltammetric Stripping). All these
    techniques are supported by the 797 VA Computrace
    and can be automated with the 838 Advanced VA Sam-
    ple Processor.
    In brightener determination by the MLAT calibration
    technique, the so-called intercept solution and the stan-
    dard brightener solution are dosed into the measur-
    ing vessel using 800 Dosinos. After the determination
    of the intercept value the bath sample is transferred to
    the measuring vessel by means of the peristaltic pump
    built into the 838 Advanced VA Sample Processor and
    added to the intercept solution. In the LAT calibration
    technique both the intercept solution and the bath sam-
    ples are transferred into the measuring vessel by means
    of the peristaltic pump built into the 838 Advanced VA
    Sample Processor.
    The solution transfer permits a real, fully automatic
    MLAT determination without having to remove the elec-
    trodes from the solution during the measurement. This
    guarantees the highest possible reproducibility and ac-
    curacy of the results. The brightener content of up to 28
    samples can be analyzed automatically in a single run.
    As in the suppressor determination, the measuring ves-
    sel is automatically emptied and rinsed after each deter-
    mination. All the waste is collected centrally in a waste
    container, which allows the analysis system to be oper-
    ated easily and cleanly.
    Brightener determination
    For convenient instrument configuration the 838 Ad-
    vanced VA Sample Processor has a separate keypad
    with LCD display. With the method editor, the prepro-
    grammed methods can be very easily adapted to your
    individual requirements.
    The sample rack accommodates a maximum of 56 sam-
    ple vessels with a capacity of 5 to 11 mL as well as a fur-
    ther 56 sample vessels with a capacity of 20 to 50 mL.
    This means that sample volumes in the range between 5
    and 50 mL can be processed without any problems.
    The automated analytical procedure is completely con-
    trolled by the software of the 797 VA Computrace. This
    includes both the control of the 838 Advanced VA Sam-
    ple Processor and the 800 Dosinos connected to the
    797 VA Computrace.
    Advantageous flexibility
    Completely automated analysis system for the determination of bright-
    eners, consisting of 797 VA Computrace, 838 Advanced VA Sample
    Processor, three 800 Dosinos and rinsing equipment.
