The HI3831F is a chemical test kit that measures free chlorine using the DPD technique. All of the supplies and tools needed to accomplish about 50 tests are included with the HI3831F.
- prepared reagents for simplicity of use
- For traceability, every reagent is marked with an expiration date and a lot number.
- Cube for comparing colours for quick judgment
A colorimetric chemical test kit, the HI3831F, measures free chlorine levels in the range of 0.0 to 2.5 mg/L (ppm). All the tools and supplies required for the analysis are provided to the HI3831F. There are enough reagents in the test kit to conduct about 50 tests.
Features in plain sight
entire setup
- The test kit comes with all necessary supplies, such as the colour comparison cube and reagent dropper vials.
- heightened clarity
- To a resolution of 0.5 mg/L, readings between 0.0 and 2.5 mg/L are calculated.
- Replacement chemicals on hand
When reagents run out, a new kit does not need to be purchased. To replace the reagents included with the kit, order the HI3831F-050 reagent set. One (20mL) dropper bottle of Reagent 1 and one (15mL) dropper bottle of Reagent 2 are included in this reagent set.
Relevance of Use
Disinfection is the process of eradicating pathogens (or pathogens). Due to its ability to produce hypochlorous acid (HOCl) and hydrochloric acid when combined with pure water, chlorine (Cl2) is a highly effective disinfectant (HCl). The best type of chlorine for cleaning swimming pools, spas, and drinking water is HOCl (free active chlorine).
Municipalities that produce drinking water add elemental chlorine to the water supply in the form of chlorine gas, sodium hypochlorite solution in liquid form, or dry calcium hypochlorite. These combine to create free chlorine ions in water, which eradicate germs, reduce odour, and assist remove impurities. They also kill disease-causing microorganisms. In order to ensure that there is disinfectant available throughout the distribution system, the USEPA mandates that residual disinfectant be present in finished drinking water. Chlorine serves as one of the disinfectants that supplies said residual. Due to probable health impacts above this level, the EPA has also set a maximum contaminant threshold for free chlorine of 4.0 mg/L.
