The HI38039 is a chemical test kit that uses the phenanthroline method to measure total iron in the low range. The HI38039 is supplied complete with all of the reagents and equipment necessary including the Checker® disc. The Checker® disc makes concentration determination more accurate and easier than a typical color comparator. The test kit contains enough reagents to perform 100 tests.
Complete setup
All required materials are included with the test kit, such as the glass vials, plastic pipette, reagent packets, and Checker® disc.
High resolution
Readings from 0.00 to 1.00 mg/L are determined to 0.02 mg/L resolution.
Replacement reagents available
There is no need to buy a new kit when reagents are exhausted. The HI38039-100 reagent set can be ordered to replace the reagents supplied with the kit. This reagent set comes with 100 packets of HI3834-0 iron reagent.
Iron is naturally present in water in low concentrations, but it reaches high concentrations in wastewater effluents. The iron concentration in water needs to be monitored because it becomes harmful above certain levels. In domestic water, for instance, iron can stain laundry, damage kitchenware, favor the growth of certain bacteria, and unpleasantly alter the taste of water. Iron is also an indicator of ongoing corrosion in water cooling and heating systems. Moreover, iron is normally monitored in mining wastewater to avoid contamination.
