[0017] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making any creative work shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention, and the present invention shall not be limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0018] Referring to Figures 1, 7, and 8, the present invention provides a Karl Fischer moisture tester having a membrane electrolysis electrode and an electrolytic cell drain and rehydration device, including a Karl Fischer moisture tester 19, a control circuit, a vacuum pump 1, an electromagnetic three-way valve, and a dustproof air sponge filter 2:
[0019] The Karl Fischer moisture tester 19 has a membrane electrolysis electrode, and the upper ground joints of the inner and outer electrolytic cells are respectively buckled with a silicone plug buckle cover 10, and a rehydration tube 14, 16, a drainage tube 17, 18, and a connecting tube of the reduced pressure drying container 6 are installed and inserted on each of the two buckle covers 10. The two buckle covers 10 have a total of two rehydration tubes 14, 16 connected to the same main rehydration distribution electromagnetic three-way valve 9 and the main rehydration tube 12 on the bottle cap of the rehydration bottle 13. Similarly, the two buckle covers 10 also have a total of two drainage tubes 17, 18 connected to another main drainage distribution electromagnetic three-way valve 8 and the main drainage tube 7 on the bottle cap of the drainage receiving bottle 22. The air blowpipe 11 on the bottle cap of the rehydration bottle 13 is connected to the blowpipe exhaust atmospheric electromagnetic three-way valve 20 and connected to the air outlet of the vacuum pump 1, and the air suction pipe 4 on the bottle cap of the drainage receiving bottle 22 is connected to the air inlet of the vacuum pump 1.
[0020] Specifically, the reduced pressure drying pipe is connected to the drying container 6 , the drying container 6 is filled with desiccant particles, the vent of the drying container 6 is connected to the breathing valve 5 , and the air inlet of the breathing valve 5 is connected to the dustproof air sponge filter 2 .
[0021] Specifically, the air inlet of the vacuum pump 1 is connected to a pump air inlet electromagnetic three-way valve 3, and the three-way valve 4 has an air inlet pipe connected to the atmosphere and connected to the dust-proof air sponge filter 2.
[0022] See Figure 2 、 Figure 3When replenishing the Karl Fischer reagent electrolyte to the Karl Fischer electrolytic cell, the vacuum pump 1 is controlled to start working, and the air enters through the dust-proof air sponge filter 2 and passes through the control pump air inlet electromagnetic three-way valve 3. The filtered air enters the vacuum pump 1 outlet through the blowpipe exhaust electromagnetic three-way valve 20 and is blown into the rehydration bottle 13 along the direction of the pipeline arrow to squeeze the Karl Fischer reagent electrolyte along the main rehydration pipe 12 through the main rehydration distribution electromagnetic three-way valve 9 to be distributed to the inner electrolytic cell rehydration pipe 16 to be replenished into the inner electrolytic cell of the ceramic membrane electrode 15, and is distributed to the outer electrolytic cell rehydration pipe 14 to be replenished into the outer electrolytic cell through the control main rehydration distribution electromagnetic three-way valve 9. The rehydration amount is controlled according to the test requirements, and is specifically controlled by the control circuit input of the tester.
[0023] See Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 When the Karl Fischer moisture test is completed and the electrolyte needs to be drained, the vacuum pump 1 is controlled to start working, and the pump air inlet electromagnetic three-way valve 3 is controlled. Air is drawn out of the drainage receiving bottle 22 through the air suction pipe 4 to generate negative pressure. The main drainage distribution electromagnetic three-way valve 8 is controlled to sequentially draw out the electrolyte from the inner electrolytic cell and the outer electrolytic cell of the ceramic electrode into the main drainage distribution electromagnetic three-way valve 22. During the drainage process, the outlet of the vacuum pump 1 blows out through the controlled blowpipe exhaust electromagnetic three-way valve 20, and the blown air is discharged into the atmosphere through the exhaust pipe 21.
