Phosphate, High Range Photometer Water Resistant and CAL CHECK

Phosphate, High Range Photometer Water Resistant and CAL CHECK

You usually find phosphates in agriculture as fertilizers, in detergents and are also used to prevent corrosion. Phosphates are important for the life of many plants and animals but if used in large quantities they can affect the process of eutrophication. This meter measures phosphate content in water samples in the 0.0 to 30.0 mg/L (ppm) range.

This instrument contains the powerful CAL CHECK validation function which allows you to validate your performance at any time. This whole system is user friendly and with the NIST traceable standards you will be able to verify the performance of the instrument and recalibrate if necessary.

This meter is water resistant and the lamp and filter are protected by a transparent cup, making it ideal for field work. This meter also features an auto-shut off feature that will turn off the instrument after 10 minutes of non-use in measurement mode and after 1 hour of non-use in calibration mode. This meter also has a positive locking system to ensure the cuvets are oriented in exactly the same way each time you test. The meter also allows for cuvets with larger necks to ease the process of adding both reagents and samples.

This meter is supplied with 2 sample cuvets and caps, a 9V battery and an instruction manual.
