Specialty Kits

Water analysts often need a precise measurement tool to obtain specific data. These specialty test kits allow the user to measure specific and unique tests with increased sensitivity over a desired test range. Many of these kits use calibrated glassware or special comparators to achieve optimum accuracy. Most kits are designed to provide at least 50 tests.

These kits are ideal for expanding "in-store" water testing capabilities and for reliable troubleshooting on the service route. If you have a unique need for a different test or combination of tests, please contact our Technical Service Department. We supply a variety of products not listed in this catalog which will suit your specific needs.

Test Methods

dipcell-comparatortDipcell Comparator

The DipCell comparator is simple to use: dip the comparator into the water to get a sample; add reagents, cap, mix, and read.

direct-reading-titrationtDirect Reading Titration

An indicator is added to a water sample, which is then titrated using a plastic syringe until an endpoint color change occurs. The syringe shows the result directly in ppm.

drop-count-titrationtDrop Count Titration

An indicator is added to a water sample, which is then titrated dropwise until an endpoint color change occurs. The number of drops used, multiplied by a given factor, provides the ppm result.

octa-slide-comparatortOcta-Slide or Octet Comparator

The reacted water sample is compared with eight color standards in a comparator block, one-to-one (Octa-Slide) or four at a time (Octet).


4064The Sequestering Agent Test Kit (Code 4064)

Designed for the pool professional to measure the concentration (ppm) of active sequestering agent in the water sample from 0 to 20 ppm. To prevent staining from metals on the pool surface a sequestering agent chemical is often recommended.
The test kit includes unit-dose, foil packaged TesTabs® tablet reagents for 50 tests and a 60 mL bottle of titrating reagent that is added using a direct reading titrator. The user swirls the test tube, slowly pressing the plunger to titrate until an endpoint color change occurs from green to blue. The testing reagents and equipment are packaged in a rugged carrying case.
