Key Features

21 CFR Part 11 Documentation

Complies with CFR Part 11 requirements for Pharma and regulated environments.

Practical benefit: Gives pharmaceutical and regulated laboratories a documented basis for risk assessment, validation planning and audit review.

User Administration and Audit Trail

Access rights can be assigned by user, while actions and changes are recorded in the audit trail.

Practical benefit: Supports accountability and traceability of who performed or changed an action and when.

Traceable Electronic Records

Determination records include the instrument, user, time and documented changes associated with the result.

Practical benefit: Helps laboratories reconstruct the history of a result during review, deviation investigation or audit.

Secure PDF and Data Reporting

Generate forge-proof PDF reports without a PC and save reports, methods and determination data to USB or the network.

Practical benefit: Supports controlled electronic reporting and reduces dependence on handwritten result transcription.

Printer, Balance and Barcode Connectivity

Connect compatible USB or network printers, balances through an adapter, PC keyboard and USB barcode reader.

Practical benefit: Improves sample identification, weight transfer and report handling in routine QC workflows.

Direct Ethernet and PC/LIMS Integration

The Ethernet connection supports network data archiving, method management, network printing and PC/LIMS reporting.

Practical benefit: Allows a stand-alone instrument to participate in a connected laboratory without being operated from a separate PC.

Integrated Pump and Safer Reagent Handling

The titration cell can be emptied and refilled at the push of a button, while Dosino technology reduces direct contact with KF reagent.

Practical benefit: Improves operator safety, cleanliness and consistency during solvent and reagent replacement.

Safety Stop During Conditioning

The electrode test and Safety Stop can interrupt conditioning if the electrode is not connected correctly or the cell is excessively wet.

Practical benefit: Reduces the risk of titration-cell overflow and unnecessary reagent consumption.

Personalized Touchscreen Operation

Up to 14 favorite methods can be assigned per user for one-touch method start.

Practical benefit: Helps routine operators follow validated methods without navigating unnecessary menus.

Frequently Asked Question

The 916 Ti-Touch includes technical functions designed to fulfill FDA 21 CFR Part 11 requirements, including controlled user access, audit trail functions and electronic signatures. Full compliance also depends on the laboratory’s own SOPs, validation, access policies and record-retention procedures.

Yes. Relevant user actions can be recorded in a computer-generated, time-stamped audit trail that includes user identification and can document the reason for changes. Audit-trail data can be reviewed and exported using the supported Metrohm tools.

Yes. The system supports electronic signatures for review and approval of methods and determinations. Signature information can include the user, date and time, and the meaning of the signature.

Yes. The instrument supports PC/LIMS reporting and Ethernet-based transfer to a LIMS or intranet without requiring a separate PC to control the titrator.

The core platform is the 916 Ti-Touch. The Food, Oil and Salt versions are application-focused packages supplied with the dosing, stirring, electrode and method configuration required for common applications in those areas.

The 916 Oil Ti-Touch is configured for routine determination of acid number and base number in oil and petroleum products using a nonaqueous titration setup.

The 916 Salt Ti-Touch is configured for potentiometric chloride determination by precipitation titration with silver nitrate.

The 916 Food Ti-Touch is configured for aqueous acid-base titrations in food laboratories and is supplied with a large library of established Metrohm application methods.

Yes. It is well suited to pharmaceutical quality-control laboratories requiring potentiometric titration for assays, acid-base titrations, redox, precipitation and other suitable pharmacopeial methods, with the added advantage of 21 CFR Part 11 data-integrity functions.

Yes. Acid number and base number are major potentiometric titration applications in petroleum and lubricant analysis. The dedicated 916 Oil Ti-Touch package is specifically configured for these routine oil applications.

Yes. The 916 Ti-Touch can be combined with the Metrohm 810 Sample Processor to automate up to 24 analyses, increasing throughput and improving repeatability.
