From start to finish watch this short video to see how a sample of Jet Fuel Oil is tested for water content using a karl Fischer Titrator. For this training video we use:

1. The [Aquapal III](https://www.scientificgear.com/aquapal) coulometric Karl Fischer Titrator (setup as a dual reagent configuration)
2. Reagents; [Anolyte is coulomat AG](https://www.scientificgear.com/coulometric-karl-fischer-reagents) and the [catholyte is coulomat CG](https://www.scientificgear.com/coulometric-karl-fischer-reagents)
3. A 4-place [analytical balance SA-210](https://www.scientificgear.shop/shop/zsa210-zsa210-analytical-balance-30352?search=sa#attr=)
4. And a [disposable syringe](https://www.scientificgear.shop/shop/26102syp5ml-disposable-syringe-5ml-28958?search=disposable#attr=) and [disposable needle](https://www.scientificgear.shop/shop/26100dne-disposable-needle-16gx4-28956?search=disposable#attr=)

In this video you will see the steps for running a test successfully including how to:

1. Extract your sample into the syringe
2. How to weigh your sample and tare the balance
3. How to inject a sample properly
4. How to input the sample weight and obtain a final result
