Test organo-phosphonate levels in cooling water
An improved, easy to use organo-phosphonate test for monitoring OP levels in boiler and cooling water systems eliminates the problems of pH adjustment and end-point determination.
The use of glass is now prohibited in many environments, such as food factories and poolside in swimming pools.
However, until now only glass tubes enabled an accurate photometer measurement of the colour produced when a reagent is added to a sample of water.
In such environments plastic tubes have to be used, but were previously suitable only for comparator testing, when visual colour standards are used to assess the colour formed in the test sample.
These new, high quality tubes now make using plastic in photometers a possibility, providing much more accurate results.
The durable, re-useable tubes are now included as standard with all Palintest photometers for swimming pool use.
They can be requested as standard with any Palintest photometer, and are also available for order separately.
Palintest manufactures water analysis and environmental testing products, producing a wide range of simple to use instruments and reagent systems.
The company's products are used in laboratories, treatment plants, swimming pools and industrial premises throughout the world.
