Water Quality Testing Kits

Alkalinity Testing

These water quality testing kits use titrations with standard acid to the phenolphthalein (P) and/ or total (T) alkalinity endpoint. Where hydroxyl (OH) alkalinity is determined directly, the sample is pretreated with barium to precipitate carbonates. All results are expressed as CaCO3.

Natural or treated water alkalinity is made up of a number of dissolved compounds, such as hydroxides, carbonates, bicarbonates and to a lesser extent phosphates or silicates.

Water alkalinity is a critical factor in many water treatment applications. Low alkalinity levels can create aggressive or corrosive water conditions. Water treatment products increase alkalinity to create less aggressive, more manageable water.

Caustic Testing

A sample is reacted with barium to precipitate any carbonates, then is titrated with a standard acid to the phenolphthalein endpoint.

This simple, single-reagent kit measures caustic levels for cleaning of bottles, cans, storage tanks, etc. Reagents for 50 tests. These water quality testing kits uses neutralization test method.

MODEL	DESCRIPTION	RANGE / SENSITIVITY	# TESTS (# RGTS)	USQAGE DIRECTIONS	PRICE
7516-DR-02	Caustic Direct Reading Titrator	0-10%/0.2% NaOH	50 at 10% (4)		$135.10
7181-01	Caustic Dropper Bottle	1 drop=0.1 or 1% NaOH	50 at 10% (3)		$90.20

Caustic Testing

Water quality testing kits uses a standard alkali to titrate to the methyl orange endpoint for determination of strong mineral acids, and the phenolphthalein endpoint for determination of strong mineral acids, carbon dioxide, other weak acids, and hydrolysable mineral salts.

This simple, single-reagent kit uses the phenolphthalein endpoint to determine hydrochloric, sulfuric, and phosphoric acids. Most common uses found are for water treatment facilities.

7182-01	HCL, H2SO4, H3PO4 Dropper Bottle	1 drop=0.1 or 1.0%	50 at 10% (2)		$86.25

Detergents Testing

Anionic surfactants are extracted with toluene and break up an ion pair, releasing bromphenol blue into a water layer. A standard color reagent is then used to determine the concentration.

Can be used in applications when detergents are used and runoff water could be an issue for compliance with local standards. Wherever cleaning agents are used in proximity to a water source the detergent testing kit can assist with staying within parameters.

4507-02	Dropper Pipet	1 drop=1.0 ppm detergent	60 at 5.0 ppm (3)		$136.40

Corrosion Control Kit

By determining corrosive conditions in water supplies, this test kit supports a water supplier’s lead in drinking water abatement program. Each unit includes tests for P and T alkalinity, calcium hardness, temperature, pH, phosphates, and total dissolved solids. Calculate saturation index by the Langelier method to indicate the corrosive conditions in water supplies. The Model CCK Corrosion Control kit is packaged in a portable carrying case for on-site use.

Storm Drain Kit

The Model SSDK Detection Kit was specifically designed and manufactured to meet US EPA requirements for field test procedures approved in the November 16, 1990 Federal Register to monitor illicit storm drain connections. Each unit includes tests for pH, Total Chlorine, Total Copper, Phenols, Detergent surfactants, Color and Turbidity.

The Model SSDK is packaged in a rugged portable carrying case for on-site use. Reagents are provided for 100 tests of each parameter (30 tests for Detergent).
