The Aquamax® KF Generator Electrode, Fritted with Lead is a replacement electrolysis electrode designed specifically for Aquamax Karl Fischer coulometric titrators. This electrode is responsible for generating iodine electrochemically during the Karl Fischer titration process, enabling precise determination of trace water content in samples.
The fritted (diaphragm) generator electrode separates the anode and cathode compartments within the titration cell. The frit prevents interference from side reactions and helps maintain stable electrochemical conditions during titration. This design ensures highly accurate moisture measurements across a wide range of sample types including oils, fuels, solvents, chemicals, and pharmaceutical materials.
Manufactured to meet the operational requirements of Aquamax KF titration systems, this generator electrode ensures reliable performance, consistent electrolysis efficiency, and easy installation for routine laboratory maintenance.

Role in Karl Fischer Titration
In coulometric Karl Fischer titration, the generator electrode produces iodine through electrolysis:
- Electrical current passes through the electrolyte.
- Iodine is generated at the anode.
- The iodine reacts with water present in the sample.
- When all water has reacted, the detector electrode identifies the endpoint.
The fritted diaphragm isolates the electrode compartments to maintain stable titration conditions and prevent interference from side reactions.
Included Components
The replacement kit includes:
- KF Generator Electrode (fritted type)
- Protective sleeve
- Electrode lead (P/N 321.18.0002M)
The protective sleeve helps prevent damage during storage and transport.
Applications
This generator electrode is used in laboratories performing Karl Fischer coulometric moisture analysis, including:
- Petroleum and fuel testing
