Hanna Nitrate Checker
Hanna Nitrate Checker
Handheld Checker for Nitrate - HI782
The Hanna Nitrate (HR) Checker bridges the gap between simple chemical test kits and professional instrumentation.
Chemical test kits have limited accuracy and resolution since they rely upon the human eye to discern differences in color. Professional instrumentation incorporates a light source such as an LED or tungsten lamp with a filter and a light sensing detector to precisely determine absorbance and ion concentration. This level of instrumentation also offers greater resolution and accuracy, but can cost hundreds of dollars.
The Hanna Marine Nitrate Checker uses the zinc reduction method to determine nitrate concentration in marine applications. With a digital read out there is no more struggling to determine colors visually.
