Sulfate water analysis test kits
16 January, 2003 | Edwards Group Pty Ltd
The CHEMetrics Sulfate Vacu-vials Test Kit (K-9203) for water analysis features self-filling Vacu-vial ampoules, which the user simply snaps in the sample. The Sulfate Vacu-vials test method employs the barium sulfate method. Sulfate ion reacts with barium chloride in an acidic solution to form a suspension of barium sulfate crystals of uniform size. The resulting turbidity is proportional to the sulfate concentration of the sample and can be read on any spectrophotometer that accepts a 13 mm cell.
COD measurement system
16 January, 2003 | Hanna Instruments Pty Ltd
Hanna's C99 COD analyser is a multi-parameter ion specific meter designed for wastewater or environmental testing. C99 allows for a COD measurement based on the Closed Reflux Colorimetric Method over three different ranges: 0 to 150 mg/L, 0 to 1500 mg/L and 0 to 15,000 mg/L.
Configuration and datalogging software
16 January, 2003 | Eurotherm Australia
The iTools complete configuration and monitoring package for all Eurotherm Series 2000 controllers will edit, store and clone complete controller configurations.
