The LCA5 is an essential coagulation optimization tool for the water treatment professional, allowing the user to quickly, and confidently, respond to rapidly changing raw water conditions. In under 5 minutes, the coagulant dosage needed to achieve charge neutralization can be determined by either manually or automatically titrating a raw water sample with coagulant until a zero (0) charge reading is obtained.

Overview
The LCA5 is an essential coagulation optimization tool for the water treatment professional, allowing the user to quickly, and confidently, respond to rapidly changing raw water conditions. In under 5 minutes, the coagulant dosage needed to achieve charge neutralization can be determined by either manually or automatically titrating a raw water sample with coagulant until a zero (0) charge reading is obtained. An optional pH measurement along with automatic titration allows the LCA5 to also determine the buffer (e.g., caustic, lime) dosage in applications where pH adjustment is required due to low alkalinity conditions. The optional buffer titration feature is also utilized in certain applications where sample pH modification may be required in order to achieve reliable charge measurement results. Another very important feature is the large sample size capacity (up to 2 L), and integrated stirrer which further enhance accuracy, especially when titrating with undiluted coagulants. The LCA5 also includes graphical trending of the titration, data logging with the ability to export past titration results to a USB flash drive, and instructional videos which play directly on the 7” high resolution touchscreen display. The LCA5 comes backed with over 35 years of charge analysis expertise and world class customer support. Speak to one of our product specialists to discuss whether the LCA is the right tool for your application.
MODEL CONFIGURATOR
LCA5.2
Automatic Pump Titration Configuration
0 = No Automatic Titration
1 = One Titrant Pump (Coagulant Only)
2 = Two Titrant Pumps (Coagulant & Buffer)
1 = One Titrant Pump (Coagulant Only)
2 = Two Titrant Pumps (Coagulant & Buffer)
Syringe Pump Upgrade(1)
0 = No
1 = Yes
1 = Yes
pH with Temp(2)
0 = No
1 = Yes
1 = Yes
Example: LCA.2201 comes with 2 automatic solenoid micro-pumps (one for coagulant and one for buffer), and also includes pH and temperature measurement capability.
( 1 ): Syringe pump upgrade is required when chemical supplier states their coagulant should not be diluted, as is the case with some pre-hydrolyzed coagulants
( 2 ): pH w/Temp option is required if LCA5 is configured with titrant pumps. Note: Some applications require the LCA5 to have titrant pumps for sample pH adjustment capability in order to ensure accurate results. Contact Chemtrac for details.
