MEASURES AMMONIA QUICKLY AND EASILY
August 1st 2005

Levels of ammonia in industrial effluent can be checked quickly with a handheld photometer from Palintest.

Samples can be taken from any point in the effluent treatment process and tested in minutes. The meter accurately measures ammonia across the full spectrum of normal regulatory levels, helping to ensure waste waters have ammonia levels within Discharge Consent limits.

Used in conjunction with a specially designed reagent dispenser, performing the test is simple, even in high winds or heavy rain.

Based on the standard Nessler method, the first reagent is supplied in a Tubetest sealed test tube; the second in the dispenser.

After the sample is added to the first reagent, the second is added. After 1min, the tube is inserted in the meter and two buttons pressed. The ammonia concentration is displayed on a 10mm LCD.
