This chemical test kit measures total hardness as CaCO3 by titration with EDTA.
This chemical test kit measures total hardness as CaCO3 by titration with EDTA.
A titration-based chemical test kit that determines the total hardness concentration in two ranges: 0.0 to 30.0 mg/L and 0 to 300 mg/L. It is supplied complete with everything needed to perform approximately 100 tests.
Features
Applications
Water hardness has traditionally been defined as the capacity of water to precipitate soap. The ionic species in the water causing the precipitation was later found to be primarily calcium and magnesium. Thus, water hardness is actually a quantitative measure of these ions in the water. It is also now known that certain other ion species, such as iron, zinc, and manganese contribute to the overall water hardness. The measure and subsequent control of water hardness is essential to prevent scaling and clogging in water pipes.
